Sujet: How to win the Stanley Cup as the Bruins
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Gofnut999</b></div><div>You don’t dismantle and decimate a team for 1 year because the playoffs is a crapshoot. Hockey is not like basketball or football where you the best team usually wins. Bad breaks, bad bounce, bad penalties, blown call, hot goalie, flukey goal, injury, just plain dumb luck....any of these things can win or lose a series. It’s why you don’t see teams trade 15 assets for 2 expiring contracts and 2 year contract. It’s short sighted and downright word i’m not supposed to use here.

As to the trades themdelves. The Faulk trade is another one of those words. Huge overpay, even with them taking Backes.

That does not get you Stone.</div></div>

Probably should’ve mentioned in the description how it wasn’t meant as something the Bruins should actually do, because of course they shouldn’t. It’s simply a fun way to put together a cup contender. You can’t complain something is unrealistic if it isn’t meant to be realistic in the first place.

And all of the trades are at least close to fair value. Heinen is very good and young and the additional pieces help.
The Faulk trade isn’t an overpay, he’s an underrated right handed defenseman.
