How does that help Boston now? They don’t need a center this year but they need the defenseman.

For Christs sake give it up. You guys are not getting Carlo. Or Lysell for that matter. I know…you did not ask for him. But every Nucks offer is asking for 1 or both.

1. Carlo is injured
2. Boston's RD depth beyond McAvoy and Carlo is pretty brutal.
3. Boston already has 2 pending UFA centers of either the same caliber or better than Horvat, as well as a really solid 3C. Where would Horvat even play this year?

On capfriendly you can click on each team and look at their roster. Four seconds on the bruins page should be enough to show anyone that horvat for Carlo does not work.

Furthermore, trades like Carlo for a rental just aren’t a thing in the nhl. It’s a really bad concept
