Thread: Draft Day
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KennyBoi</b></div><div>To me it feels like there was competition driving the price up. Because viewing Sweeney's trades in recent years tells me he usually has a good gauge on players trade value.

Someone in that front office really likes the guy, and with the cap going up, maybe see Peeke's AAV &amp; term as a positive.</div></div>

Maybe but i doubt it. Had not heard of much interest around the league.

I think it was more urgency on Boston’s part having missed out on cheaper beefy d men earlier and there was nothing left combined with Forbort injury. Peeke is somewhat a RH version of Forbort.

Carrying on the tradition of #6 type d man making 2.5+ with term. Moore, Reilly, Forbort. At least it’s only 1 instead of 3 at the same time.

I don’t mind the add as much as others. He has size, blocks a ton of shots and hits people. Rest of his game is rather sketchy.

Will likely be RD3 next year blocking Regula.

I am sure Don tried to get a better deal, retention or lesser pick. Maybe it just wasn’t there. But i’d imagine Columbus would have been happy/shocked just to dump his full salary so it’s weird. Have to wonder if the Gavrikov fiasco ftom last year played into it. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Thread: Forbort probably traded by March 8
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>batman</b></div><div>Been playing poorly and his attitude is apparently ****.
Jim Murphy says he might get traded by next week</div></div>

Jimmy Murphy seems like a great guy to chat about the Bruins at a bar and he serves a purpose, but I wouldn’t say he has a lot of insider knowledge. Hes a good representative of the every fan and appreciate him for what he is. He is not a credible insider.

Forbort overslept a meeting. We’ve all been there. He hasn’t been healthy, but I doubt he takes retention to keep. There are mediocre players getting traded for third round picks who aren’t as good as Forbort. He’s a fairly easy salary swap, but I agree that Philly would require something else.

Lohrei is making mistakes, but also showing some really interesting recovery ability at the same time. He’s much better know vs his first or second time he was called up.
