Thread: Keller
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wqrrior</b></div><div>idk much about those two prospects going back, but this feels like a sharp underpay. Lysell or Poitras not being included probably shuts down the deal.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FoxYou727</b></div><div>Even if Keller doesn't want to go to Utah, the Coyotes don't have to trade him and this is such an underpay. Lysell would need to be part of any package</div></div>


I’m a huge lysell fan but I’d gladly add lysell instead of Merkulov and even add a bit more if needed.

Keller has 222 points in his last 224 games playing with the likes of Boyd/ hayton/ Kerfoot as his center and Schmaltz as his RW ( no hate towards Schmaltz he’s a solid player), imagine what he could do with pastrnak and Zacha who are a very significant upgrade

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>ya, this ain't it.
Teuvo is inconsistent and just isn't worth that - stick with debrusk. cheaper, and the devil you know
poitras is not a winger
letting heinen walk would be bad business.

this is one of the sillier things i've ever read.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Prime_Jimbo</b></div><div>Poitras played some winger in the past from what I read:

https://nesn.com/2024/01/bruins-matthew-poitras-learning-on-job-during-position-change/

But certainly can learn from Coyle in the meantime or Geekie slides out to the wing. I think that was a line combo this year before his injury anyway.</div></div>


Poitras playing wing learning from coyle isn’t a bad idea, he can take 40% draws, coyle taking all the defensive zone draws and some of the more important o draws.

Calling teuvo inconsistent and saying resign debrusk is hilarious, im done with debrusk buddy shows up for 2 weeks every 2 months.
He may be good 2 way but bruins don’t lack in the 2 way forward department what we lack in is guys who score or create opportunities for others to score.

Teuvo/ Tarasenko/ Toffoli/ Lindholm/ stamkos/ Marchessault I’d rather pay the 1-2 mill extra for.

Hell for what debrusk will sign for I’d rather go for Mantha/ Duclair/ Arvidsson

Thread: Atlantic - way too early predictions 2024-25
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MitchJr</b></div><div>I wrote tossup between the top 3 so 🤷🏻. Leafs core is signed so not sure what you mean.
Both teams have about same cap space - once you account for Swayman who is due a big raise .</div></div>


By big names I should have said depth for leaf’s which leaf’s have struggled to have consistent ones.

Both teams may have similar cap im pretty sure B’s still have quite a bit more but anyways, Toronto has a lot more holes to fix. Bruins only real need is a true 1C or a top tier winger that could make up for coyle and Zacha being 2Cs, they could easily do that with Guentzel/ Reinhart/ Lindholm. leaf’s desperately need a more consistent goalie, they still lack a top tier defence and they need more scoring from their depth.
