<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>keepcalmandbergeron</b></div><div>Don't see why they would move Lindholm. They could send him to Providence and not have any count towards the cap. Cassidy seems to trust him and I doubt he'd be claimed on waivers.

I don't see anything in Blidh. What does everyone else see that they have him in the lineup? Average speed, loves to hit, relatively high energy and no hands. I'd rather have Senyshen, Frederic or Gaunce in the lineup, they all have more upside.</div></div>

Agree on Senyshyn and Frederic in the lineup. Cassidy likes Blidh, no matter what you and I think, that goes a long way. With Lindholm I would just rather see, as mentioned, Senyshyn, Frederic and Gaunce get more NHL experience. You are right Cassidy does like that 4th line vet presence.

Sujet: Hypothetical 1 Bruins part ways with Krug
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>keepcalmandbergeron</b></div><div>My understanding is that everyone from that draft class is fair game if they don't make the big club. Think Subban by Vegas for comparison. Didn't play many NHL games, didn't make it through waivers.

If you select a player such as Zboril there is a link that says "waivers exempt". Estimated waivers required beginning: 2020-21.</div></div>

Gotcha. Thanks for the overall feedback though. I'm actually really happy you noticed the Gaunce signing. He actually looked solid during that one game with Boston. Obviously it's a really small sample size, but I've read about how solid of a player he was for Providence. I think with them letting Nordstrom go, he could be a serious darkhorse for that 4th line spot.

In regards to Studnicka, I really think they want to give Bjork another look. He had an up and down season this year, but he overall improved his game this season. We want more out of him because he's shown flashes, but I think they'll give him one more chance next season. If he doesn't reach expectations, then you can start giving guys like Studnicka, Senyshyn, etc opportunities. It's just a tough situation because while this team lacks totally high end prospects, they have a ton of depth and that depth seems close to being ready

Sujet: Hypothetical 1 Bruins part ways with Krug
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>nalzugaray12</b></div><div>Thanks! I love Krug and hope they decide to bring him back, but this is just a hypothetical if they decide to move on. My biggest concern with that is if Matt Grzelyck can truly handle a full time top 4 role. He definitely looked serviceable during his short stint in the top 4 when guys like Krug and Chara were out, but I think it's definitely a question mark if he can handle it for an 82 game period.

In regards to Clifton, he definitely didn't look the same as last season, but if he regains that confidence: hes a good #5-#6 guy. Unfortunately for Clifton, Lauzon came in and probably just outplayed him for that #6 role</div></div>

Top4, I'm confident. Top pair, that's my question. Want to keep Krug-Carlo together and have the BU pairing so Chara has less TOI and McAvoy could produce more offensively. But 33-73 probably starts as top pair again next year.

Nordstrom will be gone, yes and don't think the Bruins need someone to replace him as they have several 4th lines options as you cited. Instead, sign a top6 AHLer to a two-way deal to replace Cehlarik/Studnicka. And Ebert is more a top6 guy so I would try to get a top4 RD.
Like all deals otherwise (just take some $ off DeBrusk and give it to Grzelcyk).

IMO Krug stays so I won't go farther


For your questions
-Yes, but the team is just better with Krug.
-Probably if they have health/chemistry and they can start scoring at 5v5.
-Bjork needs to gets more minutes (EV or PP). I'm not high on Clifton so a good 6th D and exposed for Seattle draft.
-Senyshyn needs waivers so he either starts on RW3 (Studnicka/Kuhlman otherwise) or waived. Zboril, AHL probably but can get some games.
-Hopefully, that's the only thing I can say :tearsofjoy

Great thread.
