Need to offer far better than that for Bo Horvat, 2 dumps and Lysell and a late 1st isn't going to cut it. Especially if you're possibly talking contract extension. Which i know Sweeney will.

Day 178 on the Bruins still not needing Horvat.

Lol. Truly made me lol.

As a Canucks fan, I think this offer is pretty close.

who do u think the bruins will go after at the deadline

Reilly and Zboril are dumps with little to no value, Lysell while very good and a late 1st won't cut it. Especially if an extension is in place. And knowingSsweeney it would need to be.

Bruins can't afford Horvat next season unless Pasta walks so him extending Horvat is essentially a death sentence for the team

Agreed. I’m guessing we would want an additional piece. But I think a 1st and Lysell for Bo is the foundation.

Totally agree, I think he's a pure rental. But there has been some talk that Sweeney wants to extend him. And good luck with that.

Is it though?
Isn’t there a possibility that Kreicji is gone and Bergeron takes a haircut?

Oh it's definitely a good start, Just don't see either Allvin/Rutherford wanting either Reilly or Zboril need to offer a much better piece then them.

Pasta will get between $11,000,000 to $12,000,000 per, Horvat wants anywhere from $8,000,000 to $9,000,000 per plus the $4,500,000 bonus overage needed to be paid to both Bergeron and Krejci. I see no way that the Bruins can afford both players.

A lot would come down to what Alvin’s views Lysell as. Based on his profile and WJC, I think Lysell reasonably projects as a top 6. But god damn, I’ve been hoping to get a C or D as a return.

Both of those things can happen and we'd still be screwed in terms of the cap, theres currently projected 21 million in cap space if the cap doesn't go up (sounds like it will though so lets say 22.5 million just as a thought exercise) Pasta is rightfully getting at least roughly 11 million, Horvat would I assume take at least 7.5 absolute minimum (very likely could get more on another team but lets just work with this), Swayman needs a contract, thats likely at least 3 million maybe 4 like Oettenger

Theres currently 6 forwards on the team extended through next year, so you have to replace a lot of the bottom 6

On top of all that the current Bergeron and Krejci contracts will have Overages attached to them for next season, which I think I read counts for 4 million against the cap unless the Bruins are well under the cap by the end of the regular season

In short, nah it aint happening

If Yzerman seriously pursues Bo Horvat, I can see him offering Michael Rasmussen local boy plus William Wallinder LHD plays right side top 4 pairing high ceiling. 2023 1st round pick(top 10 protected) 2024 2nd round pick for an extended Bo Horvat at 8 years @ $8,500,000 per AAV that's a pretty solid offer.

You've been duped by fluff then

Look at this roster. Not a center

No there hasn’t

i didnt ask you. I'm not a bruins fan, interested in hearing their opinion on the deadline. thanks

You asked on a public forum. Don’t be a baby

ok

Jonathan Toews would be #1 on my list personally.

Correction. Bruins want him when he's a free agent, not at the deadline.
