Willy Styles is the guy the Bruins should target. He was good already but has raised his game to a new level this year.

Swing for the fences, give him Pasta money (7 X 11.25) and kill two birds with one stone.

Personally I like Reinhart more he fits our playstyle more. He will also be more cost efficient and will allow us to acquire more depth.

Nylander could just be chasing a bag right now, leaf’s seemed to always question his compete and effort level in previous years. Nylander also doesn’t play Center and hasn’t for a while where Reinhart takes over 400 draws a year so if he was line 1 with Zacha and pasta him and Zacha could flip on the draws if need be.

I can see Reinhart/Willy Styles as a fit for the Bruins next year. Hanifin seems like a luxury for this team especially with that contract... if he wants to come home to Boston, I think he'll likely have to take a discount and he'll be blocking Lohrei's minutes. IMO, it would be better to target some cheaper vet D for the third pairing.

We also need to keep some cap space to maintain some flexibility to sign Poitras, Lysell, Lohrei, Beecher, and Freddy to their next contracts.

like the JD and Reinhart signings, but i doubt they sign Hanafin as hed block Lohrei from top 4 mins
