Another contender can pay more then that for Nyqvist, also any team is beatable

I don't think there are going to be any deals between boston and columbus in the near future. Columbus seems pissed about the Gavrikov trade falling through

Perhaps

True. I think it’ll be something like a guaranteed 7th, and then a conditional 5th which we get if Nyquist plays in at least 3 playoff games, and turns into a 3rd if the team makes the second round and Gus plays at least 50 percent of the games

By not doing any of that. You made the team worse just with the Forbort trade.

You’ve made the Bruins drastically worse with these moves. Really bad trade concepts.

The answer to your question: by not doing any of this. The current team is way better.

Stephens is barely effective at the AHL level so even just having him as a depth forward in the nhl doesn't make much sense... We'd take a late rounder for Pezzetta tho

if luke schenn is worth a second forbort is worth at least that or more , i don't see us trading him
