<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DefenseFirst</b></div><div>The lohrei thing is what makes me think this is BS.

Sadly, I think it’s too much to hope that the bruins aren’t even involved. Seems clear that they are. It just doesn’t make any sense.</div></div>

I started trolling the Lohrei thing on Twitter couple weeks ago.. And Debrusk and Swayman to Arizona
People will believe anything.

Thread: Provorov

No need to add a poison pill into the Leafs locker room - Provorov can F right off and go join his bigot leader Putin in Russia.

This makes the most sense. But honestly, this trade and ur recommended changes arent enough for Chychrun unfortunately.

Def have to move Gryz to get Chychrun tho

You know how it is. NHL journalists with a blue checkmark on twitter writing articles coming up with these "rumours", and people eat them up like crazy.

If Nosek is out long term then that would be a great move. Foligno, Freddy, Acciari would be hell to play against.

Thread: Bruins Cup Push

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BruinsFan212</b></div><div>Nosek is not their top PK forward. Bergeron, DeBrusk, Coyle all better. Nosek adds nothing to the lineup, he's slow and sluggish. They've been wanting Frederic in that 4C role for years and now it looks like he's going to be able to run with that role. Jack Roslovic is a great add to the top 9, Lysell is trash and isn't going to pan out, and Grzelcyk is not a guy you win in the playoffs with. His +/- last year in the playoffs was the 2nd worst in Bruins history, behind Don Sweeney. Gavrikov is big, bullish, and a stud. This trade rounds out the bruins in all facets.</div></div>

Wow this is one of the worst takes I've seen on this website from a Bruins fan. Felger is that you?

Isn’t that what I stated. You’re giving the top prospect and a first to get a worse Dman.
Gavrikov is Chariot 2.0

Thread: Bruins Playoff push 23

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DefenseFirst</b></div><div>Lots of problems - first, you’ve made the forward group worse, and the upgrade to the D could wind up being very minor.

The reported ask for toews is either a 2nd or a 3rd. This is a ridiculous overpay.

Trading swayman is just such a horrid idea.

Can’t draft? Carlo, mcavoy, swayman, frederic, pasta, krejci, marchand, bergeron, and debrusk are all bruins draft picks. In other words, the core of this team. They’re drafting has been fine. This isn’t the NFL.</div></div>

this ^

not sure i'd say their forward core is worse, but just about everything is awful about this post.

The notion that the bruins cant draft is just wildly incorrect.

You shouldn’t say read a book when you’ve actively made this team worse, and thrown away a ton of futures in the process.

Thread: Getting Brayden Schenn 23-24

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DefenseFirst</b></div><div>Few things - you’re over the cap
You’re over the cap by a mile once you factor in the performance bonus overage for krejci and bergeron - lightly to be in the 2.5-4.5 mill range.
Teams don’t use 20 man rosters. It’s not a thing
Why is Scott Laughton worth half of that?
8 years at 850K for wags?</div></div>

My guess is he forgot to change the years for Wagner after signing pastrnak.
