<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Celtics21</b></div><div>Nelson is one year older than Pageau. I wouldn’t label him as too old at all and he certainly is closer to value for DeBrusk than Pageau is.

My perspective is DeBrusk should be targeted for extension with the money you were thinking about with Bertuzzi. He emerged into a very good young two player and would seem to be a long term solution</div></div>

Sorry Nelson isn’t to old currently, he would be better then Pageau, it just longevity wise Nelson doesn’t fit as well. I personally would rather spend more to get a little younger center to align with Pasta’s career

And I agree, I would just rather keep JD for long term LW soloution, would like to see how him and Pasta do playing together for an extended amount of time

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tniz15</b></div><div>Pageau is immediately the best center on your roster. Only reason his point totals are lower is bc he starts over 60% of his shifts in the d zone and the Isles pp was bottom 3 in the league

Dobson is worth Debrusk 3 or 4 times over.

Nelson is worth way more than Debrusk as well</div></div>


LOL now I hope you’re being sarcastic too. Coyle is better overall then Pageau, only thing Pageau would win out on is FO%. Every other metric Coyle was better last year. Coyle brings all the same intangibles as Pageau as well, and over 70% of his starts were in the d-zone so there goes that argument.

And atleast every bruins fan will admit Coyle is a 3C with ability to cover 2C in case of injury on a true contending team. Pageau ain’t no different, and those players don’t return a top 6 winger, even a mid tier like JD.

Pageau-Walstrom- 1st round is minimum where it starts, then we can add pieces to make it fair from there. Even then BOS needs LW’s more than RW’s honestly IMO. With Pasta and Lysell Likely locking down the 1-2RW spots and with Marchy likely retiring in 2 season, and only Merkulov as a potential LW(unless they swap Harrison from C to LW which is possible) that leave JD a top 6 winger in BOS for the foreseeable future.

Now again all this gets thrown out the window if JD doesn’t want to extend in BOS, then I can see the best offer taking JD and BOS readjusting next offseason.


AGAIN this post was just being sarcastic, cause BOS doesn’t want to move JD about the same as NYI don’t want to move Dobson. I.e. if you want them it’s going to take an overpayment

Thread: VGK Question
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JackAce91</b></div><div>If any defenseman gets moved, it's most likely Martinez in my opinion. When he's healthy and on his game, he's very valuable. He just has an injury bug he can't seem to get rid of. McNabb is a very valuable defensive player who can stick around for a while assuming he's willing to keep the same cap hit or less.

The definite untouchables on this team heading into this coming year are Eichel, Marchessault, Stone, Theodore, Karlsson, and Barbashev.

The probably untouchables are Pietrangelo (expensive and on the decline, but has a NMC), Stephenson (depending on what he wants on his next deal), Roy, Whitecloud.

The probably keeps but I could see being on the block depending on how the year goes are Hague, Martinez, Hill, Carrier.

The only player I expect to be moved depending on if he takes the next step or not is Cotter. I like him as a person and player, but he could be more valuable as a chip than a player if he doesn't solidify his spot in the lineup.

At this point, I'm not sure if any prospect is really untouchable. There are some I'd definitely like to keep--Korczak, Lindbom, Brisson--but if it comes down to moving them for a piece that'll help the repeat, I'd say go for it.</div></div>


Thanks for input

I agree, move forbort but Reilly or Grez need to be moved first. Forbort has size and PK ability that Reilly does not. Along with the abundance of puck moving d men and forbort being the only “stay at home “ dman on the left makes him more valuable then Reilly. But like I said I’d still move out atleast 2 as we can find bottom pair Dmen cheaper elsewhere

College players that have no NHl experience and weren’t even drafted are signing for 900k, Steen and Stud get little more
