<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dgibb10</b></div><div>Alex Holtz has flaws. His defensive game still needs some polish, and he really needs to be more careful with the puck, as there are some bad turnovers at times.

He is never going to be a play driving guy.

But he is fantastic at getting open for shots in the ozone, and he is an incredible shooter.

The offensive tools are already there to be a 35 goal scorer literally next year if you stick him into a role in the top 6 and PP1.

Now, whether his defensive and puck position game will follow to an acceptable level is the question that determines whether he’s Mike Hoffman or Tyler Toffoli</div></div>

The open challenge is Boston is a team that depends on forechecking and defensively responsible forwards. They have a player with a similar profile in Lysell and Lysell showed he’s willing to play a team game. My assumption is Holtz will have more potential than a late 1st. Just wondering if he makes sense. Personally think he’s worth a flyer, but I do acknowledge the flaws and talent are both present

I don’t see why Vegas trades Karlsson and why Boston isn’t just signing Lindholm OR Stephenson. At the beginning of the year, all I heard from most fans was praying that Lindholm would make it to free agency.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>I think that the Bruins either believe that there's value there or they don't. They need a center behind Charlie Coyle. I don't think that Boston would need to hedge their bets with the first. But I could be wrong. However, you're absolutely right that if the Bruins asked for a high draft pick, the Kings would back away.

It would have helped if I'd said "I disagree with the first half of point two."</div></div>

My perspective is it isn’t “there’s value or not”. PLD is overpaid, but he has talent to develop into his contract but not as a 3rd center.

I don’t believe a 2024 first is too high of a price, but I could see a 2025 2nd round pick and a good prospect as a compromise solution if Sweeney is a fan.

That said, I believe Boston is signing Elias Lindholm and trading Ullmark for a 1 round pick while freeing up cap room to resign Bertuzzi or DeBrusk
