Thread: how bruins could sign panarin

Where did he say he wouldn't sign long term, and with carlo, I think I'm a little on the low end (I'll edit to 4), but defensive defensemen don't make a lot of money. Check out the article from the athletic (3 free articles if you get the app) <a href="https://theathletic.com/865378/2019/03/13/brandon-carlo-is-the-most-boring-defenseman-in-the-league-and-thats-a-good-thing/" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://theathletic.com/865378/2019/03/13/brandon-carlo-is-the-most-boring-defenseman-in-the-league-and-thats-a-good-thing/</a>

It says the max he'll probably is probably "$4 million with term"

Yeah I know it was a little much, but I figured that he'd want a decent increase from his ELC. It's an interesting situation, a player with promise who's burned his whole ELC without really much time to prove himself (beside his 20 some games in boston this year with a almost purely youth line or with backes). I wasn't really sure what would make sense.

Also I'm trying to think of a good spot for backes- I figure he will want to go somewhere- not sure though. Next year he likely won't have a place in the lineup at all and I wouldn't be surprised if he retired or went on LTIR if that's possible. He's a very competitive player and I don't believe he would tolerate not playing at all.

Also, about miller, I feel like a 2nd, or 3rd plus fourth would be a fair price. He's a solid 3rd to 2nd pairing defensman with a full year left. Look at what the capitals gave for Nick Jensen. Is the price not reasonable?
