I was surprised Staal ended up as low as 3.5. Not that I think he's worth more, but teams are crazy. That knee injury he had really messed him up. His skating has rapidly declined send it happened.

 

Demers 5/ $22.5 in Florida

Damn man I would've easily given him that

 

Florida looking good

 

Ekblad / Yandle
Pysk / Demers

Is a really nice top 4 defense. The panthers are seriously doing amazing things this offseason.

 

They still have Kulikov, right?

 

no they traded him to Buffalo

 

Oh damn, I must have missed that.

 

Bruins had cap space for that. Good work Don

 

Vesey says he is going to free agency, no deal in Buffalo currently lol

this shit always infuriates me. have any of these college FAs every turned into actual good players? Maybe Blake Wheeler? and that was like 8 years ago

 

no which is why I think this dude is being way overhyped for nothing.

 

I think Hudler is really the only UFA left that I'd like NJ to kick the tires on

otherwise, try to trade for a young LHD

 

Really I'd take any decent scoring RW on a one year deal. So far Bruins lineup looks like:

Marchand-Bergeron-Pastrnak(?)
Spooner(?)-Krejci-Hayes
Beleskey-Backes-???
Vatrano-Acciari-Nash

Chara-???
Krug-C Miller
Liles-K Miller


More than likely either Krejci or Spooner gets dealt, but it's not terrible? Right side is super weak. Nash signing will be helpful for bottom six. No clue why we didn't sign Demers

 

this is bad and especially the toews/James one

 

Who's the NBA player who rapes someone and is a total piece of shit?

 

I wanted to put lol but knowing our luck DW will give up two second rounds pick for him at trade deadline.

 

Mike Rowe is on fire. Just good move after good move

 

I would have loved this deal so much with sharks sigh

 

David Backes is 32 years old with and last season had 21 goals and 24 assists in 79 games. He just signed a 5 year deal with $6 million aav.

PA Parenteau is 33 years old and last season had 20 goals and 21 assists in 77 games. He just signed a 1 year deal with a $1.5 million aav.

That seriously is just a crazy thing and I'd probably rather have PAP in the long term because he doesn't rely on his physical play.

 

Great signing...

 

Ugh why re Polak? We have like 3 2nds next year, 4 is overkill.

 

you saved yourself:

 

Waiting for Carolina to sign Schultz or Schenn

 

Joe Haggarty if CSN
"I'm hearing Bruins are in on D Kris Russell. Perfect candidate for B's to massively overpay. Word is he turned down 4 yrs, $17M+ w/Leafs"

Lol at all of this

 

Haggerty is like a slightly more reputable Jimmy Murphy. I don't think he signs here

That still is terrifying though
