Ducks pass. They don’t need another goalie and don’t need 4th line forward

Selling pretty low on lindholm and Backlund, they shouldn't have to send any picks back with that return.

Remove Zacha and Backlund/2nd and add a prospect from Boston (Poitras). You have the basis for a deal.

If this was proposed before the Pens signed Graves - maybe. But as of right now there's no need.

Except NHL pro scouts who know he is the best available replacement for Bergeron and better than Zacha

Michael Backlund is the best available replacement for Patrice Bergeron? Were you dropped on your head a bunch as a child?

I think you were dropped….****ing grab a clue! Other guys are not available. He plays like a 28-year old, is far better than Zacha or anyone on Bruins now, scores well, got Selke votes in 6 different years, wake the hell up and check the trade talk from your fellow Boston fans

Bahahahahahahaha what a MORON tears of joy .... He has 40 goals over the past 3 seasons, "Scores well" tears of joy tears of joy

He's 34 years old and has been as average as can be his entire career in that miserable Calgary destination whom no one in their right mind would ever sign with.

"He's better than Zacha and anyone on the Bruins now" ..... Breaking news folks, old man Backlund is better than Pastrnak and Marchand. And he got Selke votes in the 6 seasons that he lost the award to Bergeron!

You might be the biggest moron in the history of this website.... I'd rather take a kid out of the University of Minnesota than that dog**** bag of bones Backlund that you and your miserable Flames fans are desperate to dump on someone else's lap

You are such a fool. Obviously I meant your Centres no scoring also means assists. Do some research as your opinion means less than nothing. Again lots of Bruins fans and media think Backlund to Bruins makes sense.

You are the only person on planet earth who thinks Backlund to Boston makes sense. In what world would a 34 year old broken down veteran be the replacement for Bergeron doing a rebuild? Take a lap pal, you lost here...

Check your fellow Bruins fans posts and comments before you declare yourself a winner….which is the opposite of what you are…you probably thought a “huge haul” would come for Ottawa’s trade of Debrincat but clearly that did not happen

The coach who won coach of the year the season before, right? And then Gaudreau said peace out to your city because the franchise is a joke, right?

Funny one about Gaudreau. Everyone who follows NHL Hockey know his wife convinced him to take any USA offer…poor scared and whipped boy…..his preferred destinations were NJD, Phi, NYR, and NYI but NONE wanted him. Unfortunately our coach got stubbornly defiant of obvious coaching moves so that’s on him….hence GONE like Bruins playoff chances! Enjoy Zacha after he had his peak season last year LMAO….you’re so funny that you think Boaton is relevant no hugely popular Canadian franchise is doing badly because some fans think so….so out of touch with reality!

Man that is one pathetic excuse for a poverty franchise.... I'll keep you in my prayers, bro. Better days ahead! And look at the bright side - you guys still have the best player in the world - Backlund! tears of joy
