Sujet: Is this dumb
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OilersRule</b></div><div>Can't have it all, they'd have to search FA (again, on the presumption that neither Horvat or Pasta take $10+M contracts)

Horvat and Coyle would set up the 1-2 C position for the foreseeable future, especially with Bergeron and Krejci getting on in years, and even keeping either of them on 1-2 year contracts can help the transition.</div></div>


Would rather just keep our stacked D then improve an offence that is currently top 2 in the league, and possibly screw over our top 4.

If B’s choose to upgrade all they need is a stronger middle 6 forward we don’t need to go all out.

Nyquist/ roslovic guys like that are more in bruins price range and would solidify our forward core.

Also highly doubt horvat takes a super team friendly deal in Boston he has no ties to us and will 100% cash in on this overproducting contract year he is having, just like every late 20/ early 30 yr old player does

Sujet: what do they need
Agree - bottom 6 forward for this playoff run. Potential targets: Acciari, Tierney, Bjustad, Sturm, and Blackwell.

Parayko would be a nice get, but it would mean giving up Carlo (getting Older at D) and being tighter to the cap. I don't think its necessary.

Trade Reilly to clear cap space in the offseason and let Smith walk.

Extend:
- Bergy (Bring him back next year on a similar contract; low cap hit with bonuses up to $5M in total value)
- Pasta (Give him whatever he wants at this point - anything less than $11M will be a discount).
- Clifton (Give him a deal around $3M AAV)
- Frederic (Bridge deal at around $2M AAV)
- Zacha (4 years at $4M AAV)
- QOs for McLauglin, Lauko, Swayman, and pretty much all of our other RFAs with any value

Projected Lines Next Year:
Marchand-Bergy-Debrusk
Hall-Zacha-Pasta
Frederic-Coyle-Lysell
Lauko-McLaughlin-Beecher

Grz-McAvoy
Lindholm-Carlo
Forbort-Clifton

Tough decision might be coming though with Grz... he could become a cap casualty. I think Clifton has been better than Grz this season and would rather extend him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pbesner30</b></div><div>I agree with your trade proposal but I highly doubt Boston enters a rebuild if they trade Pastrnak. It seems like Sweeney blocked this possibility by signing McAvoy and Lindholm to 8 years deal each. Plus it's not in the Bruins DNA to tear down and rebuild. They always try to put the most competitive team on the ice each year.</div></div>

not necessarily. B's did go through a retool in 2014-15, 2015-16 while still having a top 20 dman chara, a top 30 dman krug, prime marchand/ bergy/ krech/ rask

they moved quite a lot of assets that had value for picks and prospects and then with the available cap they had went hard in UFA while also being able to develop some young guys during their 2 year no PO stint

so to think B's wouldn't take 2 years off and try to hit on one of the big centers these next 2 UFA's and then give some more ice team to younger guys to try and get something out of them isn't out of the realm of possibilites even if we keep Pasta. if we move pasta that just speeds up our retool slightly faster as we could acquire 2-3 big assets+ a few minor ones that could be future depth guys

Sujet: Scheifele
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>YourWinnipegJets</b></div><div>If Scheif is traded there is most likely a young prospect with a high ceiling coming back in the deal. Lysell would have to be in the deal probably over Studnicka</div></div>

I don’t necessarily agree. Jets expect to be a cap team next year and compete. They have a clear need of a top 4 RHD. A scheifele for Carlo/1st deal is almost exactly what they need to do. If they feel Perfetti can jump into that 2C role or even stastny, I feel like they could pull the trigger on it. I’d love to have maybe a scheifele + 2nd for Carlo/Lysell type deal but no way Boston goes for that.

It’s going to be really hard to get a top 4 RHD and a promising young prospect like lysell. Only chance of that is taking a lesser RHD to be able to also obtain a promising prospect. If the jets were planning on rebuilding I’d agree with you though.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ON3M4N</b></div><div>No, he's not the center Boston needs.</div></div>

I think he’s exactly the C Boston needs. Boston needs a true 2C. Scheifele is better than a 2C, scheifele behind Bergeron really solidifies bostons forward core. Not to mention the leaps and bounds scheifele would make learning from Bergeron. Bergeron and Kassidy could transform scheifeles game. I see it working out very well for Boston. Scheifele is an offensive dynamo and would work wonders with hall on the 2nd line.
