Thread: Tendy fix
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Flamesfan60</b></div><div>Any other team hes like a .910 goalie</div></div>

You haven’t watched much of the Bruins. The save % on high danger chances doesn’t suggest it’s the defense that is bailing out the goalies. It’s the other way around.

Boston has a premium goalie coach that takes raw players and corrects a lot of their flaws, but Ullmark is what he’s shown the past two years. He went from fundamentally flawed to sound since his time in Boston.

If a team is not offering a premium package, Boston keeps him because two good goalies is the best thing for job security for a GM.

Goalie value is interesting because teams that have great goalies don’t trade them unless they have a younger great goalie on the horizon

Thread: Lindholm for DeBrusk plus
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bhavikp27</b></div><div>Lindholm is far from ideal. He isn't a real 1C and wants 1C money on top of having a reputation of Selke guy when he hasn't been that at all. He'll be 30 next season when his new (likely long-term) contract begins. Does it match the Bruins' timeline and how long will he keep his current level of play? Not only you move DeBrusk but also Lysell with no guarantee of being able to sign a top winger. This trade doesn't make much sense.</div></div>

What makes a "real 1C" in your opinion?

Lindholm over the last 3 years among NHL Centers:

83 Goals - Ranks 18th
110 Assist - Ranks 20th
193 Points - Ranks 16th

He ranks 29th among center with 150gp over the last 3 years in FO% as well. I'm not as concerned about his age seeing as more players are playing deeper in their 30's because they take better care of their body.
