Thread: Garland
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bhavikp27</b></div><div>Garland could also get injured, you can't predict that but that's not the issue. They'll probably have to overpay for a guy who is only in his second full NHL season and is a fringe 2nd liner. He could struggle just like the other forwards currently in the Bruins' middle-six. Then, you've given up valuable assets and you can't use them for an actual game breaker. Risk is part of the business but if you can get a better player, target that guy over Garland.</div></div>

Yea any player could come to Boston get hurt and/or struggle thats the chance you take in any trade. With the assets the Bruins have and are willing to part with (Obviously the big guns arent moving) who would you go after? Just wondering

Thread: Garland
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bhavikp27</b></div><div>Confirms you haven't watched him. He's played well in those games and has done literally everything but score. He is adjusting to a new team with new linemates and new system. Pause, ends of playoffs and injury, three things he can't control stopped his seasons, it's hard to get going when you can only play 5-10 games in a row. If you can improve the team, you always do it but personally, I'm keeping Kase.</div></div>

Thats totally fair but its hard to watch someone that cant stay in the lineup. I just think if the Bruins are trying to had scoring and they can target someone like Garland who is cheaper this year and doesnt have the health issues Kase does. Maybe the trade above is an over payment or whatever but it really doesn't matter if Kase isnt on the ice. Believe or not I liked when they picked up Kase last season I thought he would be good but the only thing was his health. I think that if he stays healthy he would do well. But over the course of his career hes never played a full season. Hes never played more than 70 games in a year and the last 2 his games played have been going down. The Bruins only have so many more kicks at with Bergeron, Krecji and Marchand who are all in their 30s.

Thread: Vegas Cap Fix
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tvh_0703</b></div><div>I'm not sure what it would all take, but to get Strome and cap dump Fleury would be worth more futures for sure. If Chicago asks for Glass, Vegas might push someone like Peyton Krebs and a pick instead since Glass is a capable 3C. If Chicago decides that they want to keep Toews and Kane happy, they may try to get an actual starting goalie. If they ask for too much for Strome, then Vegas could package Fleury and a 1st for a throw in, and then sign someone like Haula as a cheaper option.</div></div>

I think they would be interested in Krebs. Chicago talked about a rebuild this offseason, if they really wanted a starter the would have just kept Crawford who signed for only 3.9 mil and didnt want to give him the extra year. So I dont know why they would want a worse goalie in MAF at 7 Mil. So I dont know why they would do that just for a starter. Now I can see them making a deal for MAF because Vegas is cap strapped and could pry someone like Krebs, Glass or an extra 1st out of there. But if you want Chicago to talk MAF and give up on Strome I think it would be higher in my opinion. I mean look what they took from the Canucks for Schmidt, Vegas only got a 3rd for him and hes a top 4 d man, not a goalie making 7 mil who is on the back half of his career.
