Both these deals are very bad for Boston.

Edit: habs fan, now it makes more sense

Why would Boston do this?

Do you think he believes it make sense when he does it ?
He probably started with Lysell, and after a long reflection, he added the 2nd round pick 😆

I think he made a team that torpedoes the bruins intentionally

COYLE has a horrible contract . Paying 5.25 miilion to a 3rd line center for a player that gets 10 to 16 goals a year . That said trade does not make sense for both teams . Hawks wont take back a horrible long term contract . Hawks getting a very very late 1st and giving back a 2nd is not enough of a return for JT . If hawks are retaining 5.25 mil it has to be at least a 1st coming back . TOEWS IS ON A PACE FOR 25 GOALS . JT and Bergeron are 2 of the top 10 faceoff men in the league JT has a 64 faceoff percent he can give 37 year old Bergeron a break during long grind of the playoffs . He is easily worth a 1st rounder on his own

Settle down all caps. Coyles contract isn’t the best, but if all you’re going to look at is goals on hockeydb, you’re missing about 90% of the story.

This likely makes the team worse now, so no.

Also Elliotte Friedman has reported that conversations about toews have been revolving around a 2nd or 3rd round pick. No shot the hawks get a first for him

Wow such a bad take.

Clearly don’t watch Bruins games, or understand hockey.

After Bergy and Marchy, Coyle is the best 200 ft forward on the team.

Has become an elite on the PK, worked on his faceoffs and is now over 50%, can play anywhere in the lineup. .5ppg, strong as anyone in the league on the puck. Does so many little things that don’t show up on the scoresheet.

What’s even more comical is how you are crying about Toews being on pace for 25 goals. Ok. JT 13g 27pts. Coyle 10g 25pts. Wow. 🙄

Boston isn’t giving up 3 more years of Coyle for rental Toews that would be nothing more than a lateral move, straight up, sure as hell are not adding too.

The only thing you really got right, this makes zero sense for both teams.

Would not trade Coyle for Toews straight up.

Take out Lysell, you’d be much closer, but it’s not happening regardless.
