Thread: Off Season into Next Year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BreKel</b></div><div>1.) Both Nash's will get more money. I don't see Rick getting anything less than 5M AAV and Riley is going to cash in on a career year. He could easily get 2M+ on the open market, and he certainly won't be worth that.

2.) I don't see Vanek ever playing for the Bruins. They've had multiple chances to sign him, trade for him, etc. and haven't explored it. There's zero use for him at this point and that spot should be used for a rookie.

3.) Heinen goes from being the team's rookie leading scorer to 4th liner?

4.) Krug is not a top 4 guy, so switch him with Chara. Zboril also isn't a #7...He needs to play full time. Why is Khudobin taking a discount? If anything his play this season should earn him an increase in pay. It won't be significant (unless someone overpays) but I don't see a pay cut coming.</div></div>



1.) Agreed I know I underpaid Riley Nash. I just don't see Rick Nash (33) would have to be signed for over 5 million. Maybe 4.5 at most.

2.) Vanek has been to Multiple teams in the last couple of years. I know Bruins have shown interest so now it's time for them to make a move. If it doesn't work out flip him at the deadline like Vancouver did.

3.) Heinen right now in real life is playing 3rd line. Going down one line isn't the end of the world for him. Plus, Kuraly and Acciari could get in the dirty areas to get him the puck in front.

4.) Krug is easily your best D-man. He has to be playing top 2 minutes. Chara is getting too old and slow to keep up on the top 2. Zboril is perfect at the #7 D-man spot because he hasn't played all that much at a high level of play. You could throw him in at times for games and if someone is injured. With Khudobin, as of late I don't like the way he is playing. But you make the argument of giving him a raise.
