Sujet: LW upgrade Longer term Goali
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheGreatMistake</b></div><div>Hawks pass. I think this is a close trade, but Debrusk and Rask aren't making the Hawks a playoff team (not that it's their fault). They couldn't even make the playoffs with Lehner and Crawford playing well, so adding Rask probably isn't the answer. This feels like a lateral move for both teams as Debrincat&gt;Debrusk and Rask&gt;Markstrom. Chicago gets a better starter but their main issue is still team defense. Boston adds more goals but also lets in a few more.</div></div>

Didn’t have Lehner for the playoffs and he went in a tear. Crawford was good but not Rask or Lehner.

Chicago needs 2 goalies and to sign Kubalik and Strome.

If Chicago isn’t going to include a pick then swap DeBrincat for Kubalik. ;)

Sujet: What we look like with just RFA signings
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Propeller09</b></div><div>Vaakanainan is in the Bruins plans. He was in their plans last year.

There is potential for a great defense core there already. If Vaakanianan is a true stud #1 and they have him, McAvoy and Carlo under control for the next 5 or so years. Especially because Lauzon and Clifton have proven to be legit NHL Dmen. Zboril looks about ready too.

I don't think the Bruins should bring Chara back. I was kind of hoping they could sign him for league minimum heading into playoffs as 7/8th dman, but I assume he doesn't want that. I want to see what the Bruins have, and I don't think you can win with Chara getting 20M+ a night. 12-14 tops, but I'd rather give it to Lauzon and see what he turns into.

I'd like to see the Bruins improve on their left side d. How much they replace all depends on where Vaakanianan is in his development.

I feel like the break and delay in season(s) is going to have an interesting effects on the younger guys. The ones who were able to participate in the bubble are going to be way ahead of others. I can only assume Studnicka will be miles ahead of Beecher who probably wasn't able to skate/train the same.</div></div>

It’s hard with Vaak because we’ve seen limited ice time. Thought he was ready and played well when he did come up but the LD was blocked.

Concur with Chara. 12-14 if they do sign him. I think they need to move on though. Have to see what we have. The window is closing, but I still feel that not scoring against Tampa is the inevitable challenge every year so rather go UFA and get an upgrade on the second line. And maybe no the RW

Sujet: Time for a Rebuild
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>rednwhite</b></div><div>Wings decline. Krejci and Krug don't fit into their window and why would the Wings trade picks when they are rebuilding? Trading AA who is 24 and just scored 30 goals doesn't make much sense either.</div></div>

Krug is a stud defenseman that will fit into anyone's plans, are you kidding me!!! Maybe the 1yr left on the contract makes it hard, but he probably re-signs with them, and potentially with a hometown discount. Having Krejci (who just came off a great season and has a Stanley cup) for 2 years while rebuilding is invaluable. Krug at the trade deadline fetches a 1st and a prospect on his own. Getting Krejci to only give up 2, 2nds is a steal of a deal.

In general though, the trades I propose are actually possible. I'd suggest that most of those trades are minor losses for the Bs. If the trade isn't with the team I AGM'd, they could be with other teams

p.s. Hey Flyers fans... would you do Carter Hart for "almost playoff MVP Rask"?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GrumpyOldMan</b></div><div>I agree that Backes (and every other player with the chance to) would decline going to OTT. OTT must be ahead ow WPG on 'No Trade' Lists.
I agree about Duchene.
Panarin is just a pipe dream.
Wings trading draft picks when they are rebuilding doesn't make sense - correct again. But Krug can put some fans in the empty seats.
But in your comment: did you mean that 'All Goalies suck'?</div></div>

Backes isn't going to play in Boston. They made sure that message was sent. He has pride and Ottawa is going to be better than everyone thinks. Mark my words. They just need to hit the salary floor. Pavel's contract from Detroit might help them, but getting Backes and a 2nd round is a win/win for them. Duchene isn't going back there. Neither is Karlsson.

Krejci and Backes are actually perfect for the Sens. 2yrs of not worrying about salary floor and then they are done.

Duchene is just religious. He's not a Duche. Had a great playoff run and would look good in the Bs uniform. Plus he's part of a pro skills group that Boston would benefit from having some exposure to.
