Tre slaps Conroy and tells him to get back down.

its boston rejects time - they're looking to add, not re-arrange deck chairs.

i dont think so...

Hmmm. So next year, The bruins have 3- 30 + Defencemen to sign as well as Debrusk who this year cost more than 11 mil. between them and The bruins don't want a proven top four local boy defence, Really?

That's what tre said to Conroy about Lindholm .... and Lindholm is wearing blue alright, but not with a maple leaf on it

Hanifin is worth significantly more than DeBrusk and edmonton would probably prefer to get Hanifin for Ceci+1st than DeBrusk anyhow. I doubt Seattle would trade a 1st for Ceci either adding Holmberg doesn't change that.

The NJ trade might work for Calgary but probably not for NJ without dumping some cap.

hmmmmm, they could just sign him as a UFA? better yet, they could sign both? Both players are pending UFA's so this year is the only thing worth discussing.
I think the bruins need secondary scoring more than they need Hanifin. Maybe that's not the case, but again, they are looking to add, not move laterally. Just think it through logically - they're at the top of the conference if not the league when this phone call is happening. You think Sweeney is going to want to change this team in a major way without it just being a direct addition? Of course not. Ask for picks and prospects, not high impact roster players.

Fair Enough, but I wager that Hanifin gets signed up long term before July 1 Conroy will not let another Johnny Hockey Fiasco again

for what team?

whomever Conroy trades to, it'll probably be in the US, close to home with a contract in place for the accepting team has a hand in negotiating
