Thread: reBoot
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Gofnut999</b></div><div>Lol. You underpay Markstrom/Dadonov significantly (they won’t sign those contracts) and overpay Chara who needs to retire. He’s a detriment on the ice.

What incentive do Nucks have to make that trade? None. Any trade for Boesser is going to have to involve Carlo or they are not interested.</div></div>

I think Chara comes back for 1-2M or he retires. He deserves to go out they way he wants to. If he comes back he is 3rd pair/PK specialist at most. I expect Gryz and Cliffy to make leaps. I don't see Gryz getting more than 3.25M. With flat cap I don't see big money being spent unless they are a top tier talent. It will be interesting to see what the post covid market will be. I expect GM's to be bearish.

Certainly wasn't me...We can all agree to disagree. It is unfortunate for Moore as regular time may enhance his value and sharpen his skill. I agree with <a href="/users/McGruff" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="/users/McGruff" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="/users/McGruff" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@McGruff</a></a></a> that he was insurance to help stabilize backline between Chara and kids. He essentially slotted into McQuaid's base salary. The kids thankfully bloomed. The term is where I have issue as 3yrs would have been a nice bridge. They can afford to hold onto him to start the season as insurance but he deserves to play. Like <a href="/users/McGruff" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="/users/McGruff" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="/users/McGruff" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@McGruff</a></a></a> wrote, maybe he'll factor into the expansion draft. Regardless, this will be his last year here...

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Sure Panarin is fine for a year, but gee look at Bruins LHD, you think they need Krug. Having cost efficient Donato for a few year is what the Bruins desire. Yep Bruins get the best player in the trade, butI'm not sure they make at trade as it weakens them in two positions.</div></div>

You have to give to get...I personally think B's will stand pat and hope kids florish as they are cost controlled. However it is fun to dream about adding high end talent in a fair trade. Krug has a high cap and will be a casualty soon enough. Chara, Moore, and Grzlyck lock down left side with several LHD in their system being groomed. Donato has name recognition but their is a logjam at LW. I personally would rather keep DeBrusk, Heinen, and Bjork. Not sure if Donato will bring the jam and skating ability. JFK is a redundant throw in as Studnicka and Frederic have leapfrogged him on the depth chart...we can date to dream! Hey, congrats with Leafs adding Tavares! They will be fun to watch.

Thread: B's by Moog 4.0
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Waive Hayes? You must assume there would be no takers just for cap reasons. So Virtanen who probably doing well as the third liner in Utica is now with Bergeon and Marchand.</div></div>

I doubt there is a trade for Hayes unless B's add a sweetener to Vegas. He will be bought out or traded since he is in last year of contract. Virtanen is my pick to click as top line RW as B's will fill from within. B's like to roll lines instead of top loading and typically pair off two player and add a complimentary third to round out lines i.e. Marchy/Bergy and Krejci/Pasta. They can get by with some youth there just like Carlo was paired with Chara. I don't see them landing a UFA with term but would be fine with a Vrbata type signing at 2-3M to fill top line RW. However, I think that spot will be filled from within. Insert your own candidate.
