What Dons weeney should do

Created by: dons_weeney
Team: 2024-25 Boston Bruins
Initial Creation Date: Feb. 8, 2024
Published: Feb. 8, 2024
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
This is the more realistic/safe play for the offseason. If they want to take a big swing and get a center, I think it would make more sense to skip Hanifin and just sign whoever that center is to a big deal, because they have Lohrei who is on pace to become a legit top 4/top pairing guy.

If they do sign Hanifin and still need a center, they'd have to move money out, and use Lohrei/Lysell/2025 1st to get someone. I do think they could get by with a lower end 1c since they have Pastrnak as an elite winger, so someone along the lines of Horvat/Hertl/Tavares etc. Not those guys, but a similar talent level or just below would be ideal. A mock trade for this could be:

Debrusk + Lohrei + 2025 1st for (insert lower end 1c here)

And depending on the value of that center, they could add Lysell or another first.

This is all just for fun, no need to get upset. Would love to hear your thoughts in the comments.

LA has pulled amazing goaltending at under $2M. if they want Ullmark they will like most other teams wait until Swayman is signed. Ullmark is great, but LA has RFAs of their own to sign before shopping picks for a rental.

I don't think the Kings are willing to spend a 1st round pick on a goaltender.
