Next season

Teams know the Bruins need cap space for a center. Typically Blake hasn’t spent a 1st for a rental and Ullmark will want too much as a UFA the following year: Kings offer a 2nd and are ok if that doesn’t work. They are gambling that that contract needs to be moved before free agency opens.

Willy loves Toronto and Toronto can surpass that total contract value by offering 9.5M x 8yrs. He's not leaving, much less for the biggest rival of the team he's played on for years, to make the same or less contract value.

Only complaints i have here are minor.

No way in hell Zboril comes back. Why would he ever sign here again even if there was interest?

Needing 3 callups not only did the pass him over, he played 3rd pair on his offside at Prov last night. He has asked for trade when he was buried in Prov before. He’s counting the days to get out of here. Only reason he re-signed last time is he thought he’d be on the main and playing full time and they brought in his childhood best friend Zacha.

If they re-sign Forbort you need puck mover to play with him. Forbort/JH 3rd pair bogs down the transition game.

Boston has 25m in cap space next year and their need for center isn’t that great anymore. So false.

Re-sign Shattenkirk for one million forget Hakkinppaa.
