Thread: reBoot
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Moog121</b></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.</div></div>


It will definitely be an interesting offseason for everyone. The cap not increasing will have the biggest affect on teams. But i don’t see free agency costs dipping significantly from previous years.

Unfortunately Bruins feel the same way about Chara, they will keep signing him til he says he’s done. Problem is he’s done and does not realize it.

B’s need a LD and 2nd line wing. How they go about it and who they are targeting is mystery at this point.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Moog121</b></div><div>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">@McGruff</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">@McGruff</a></a> wrote, maybe he'll factor into the expansion draft. Regardless, this will be his last year here...</div></div>

Absolutely bro, dont worry i have no clue who it was but i aint mad :) ... and again like I said to another guy (maybe on another post im kinda lost at this point lol), the Bruins dont NEED to trade him, the 2.75 mil isnt great (considering that Moore is just an extra player FOR THEM) but they dont NEED to trade him like they NEEDED to get rid of Backes' 6 mil (well 5 mill because they could bury 1 mil).

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafs_and_Sens_Fan</b></div><div>Not my trade. Your fellow Bruins fan made this post.


Which guy?</div></div>

Idk who reported me, or maybe it was just automatic cuz I used the word dumb lol, who knows

But yeah I gotchu bro, im just saying its either Moore for a 5th, 6th, or 7th, or the bruins dont make a trade. No Cap Dump

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>McGruff</b></div><div>Hopefully it's double-secret probation like in "Animal House"...no harm no foul - except for the parade finale!!!!

As I said, the least of BOS worries is JM; It's UFA Krug 1st then RFAs DeBrusk, Grz and Bjork. Should be monies for all but some clarity would be nice as this season feels like purgatory...</div></div>

Lol hey s**t happens lol

Yeah even with Moore they can make this offseason work, then they can worry about him

Thread: Thanks Backes
There has to be more moves coming. I honestly don't see them going into next season with this lineup.

They have to integrate some of the younger kids into the lineup. I see no way that one of Studnicka, Lauko or Steen are not on the team. I think the 4th line stays the same, but they replace Lindholm for Acciari.

Coyle stays at 3c and they try Ritchie and Studnicka at 2 &amp; 3 RW.

Backes gets dealt (possible along with Heinen) or sent to minors to force him to expand his destinations. Won't help their cap situation, but may force his hand a bit if he doesn't feel like riding buses. If he is dealt to say Colorado with Heinen and a 2nd for a 7th pick that would open the door for a 2nd young kid to step in. If not with Heinen, than replace with a pick/prospect (1st/Zboril/Lauzon/cehlarik).

I also think something needs to be done on the Defensive end. They are clearly high on Vaakanainan - I would be shocked if they go into the season with Miller and Moore on the roster. Too much money for 6th -7th dmen when you have a very capable Clifton and 2-3 guys in AHL who appear close to ready.

Thread: B's v1.0
On the surface, it looks pretty realistic, but there are a couple things i don't really like.
First off, Grizz ain't taking 900K. He's probably getting a bump to 2 million. 1.5 minimum.

I would caution about trading Heinen, he's more important than people think. I know he had a rough go in the playoffs, but he was a rookie after all. He's a guy thats exceeded expectations at every single level he's played at.

Also I would be cautious about Coyle. He keeps on seeming like he turned the corner and broke out, and then regressed.

I like the idea of trading Krug to get a more traditional top four d man, and I like Brodin, but given Krugs point totals last year, I really don't think you have to kick in much more after Krug. I think krug and a 3rd might do it.

I think if you remove Heinen, Coyle, and JFK from the equation, it looks pretty good.

Thread: Plan B's 17-18
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DirtyRebound</b></div><div>I don't think he's going to sign with Boston at all. With Debrusk, Vatrano and Marchand most likely on the team next year, he probably doesn't see a great chance at getting playing time even though he can play the right side as well. Only way he signs is if Boston guarantees him a spot and even then he could probably get more ice time if he goes and signs with the Blackhawks or another cap tight team next offseason. I hope he signs but the organizational depth is going to scare away alot of these prospects.</div></div>

He's already better than DeBrusk and Vatrano and unless Boston does something in the off-season, Bjrok slots in with Krejci &amp; Pasta. Boston offered him the opportunity to do that (top 6) this year, but he wants to finish his college career and get his degree before going to the NHL. Don't be surprised if Boston takes a 1 year filler on Krejci's wing while they wait for Bjork to come out.
