Bruins fans might be desperate for a LD, but what about the bruins actions make you think the front office feels the same?

Question 2, do you think Martinez is worth more than schmidt?

Ya, me neither.

Pittsburgh might accept but no chance Carolina considers that.

You arent getting anywhere close to what you spent to get Martinez

If dougie tells them he doesn’t want to stay there (i 100% think he’ll stay there. Guy doesn’t have a pulse, the obscurity of Carolina is perfect for him), do they get a better offer?

Is Lias Andersson worth more than Nate Schmidt?

If VGK could retain on patches then I’d do it

Pretty tough to tell. Maybe the rangers don’t trade schmidt for a third?

The whole reason they traded him was the cost to dump MAF was pricey and they needed to be cap compliant by midnight for the AP deal. I take AP all day over Schmidt.

Except B’s are not desperate for a mediocre LD. They have 5 already. So no they don’t. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Maybe, I agree though that he will very likely resign. He fits that teams personality too well

Well aware of why they moved him. Martinez would also be for cap reasons.

Not the same leverage as they wouldn’t hit that 10% cushion and they don’t need to sign Hoffman so they’d actually be positive cap wise if all of the other moves occurred. I don’t think he returns that but I could see him getting a second or third rounder but completely different than Schmidt’s case.

Not sure why bidding teams would see it as such.

As a Pens fan, I really would not like that deal. Although Patches is sick, I love Rust and Poulin is our only future hope as Pens fans :P

So much here hinges greatly on Rust

Get it folks?

'Hinges' on 'Rust'



In all seriousness though with Rust just a solid 40 point forward who had a his one big year last season due to shooting % TOI and linemates... idk if it works

Bryan Rust himself is almost worth more that Pacioretty atm at least. He just last season a ppg player and is on a very good contract and he is younger than Pacioretty. And Vegas also gets the pens best prospect and a pick. If pens are selling Rust they are selling high so they don't have to give up their best prospects and a pick.
