Sujet: Boston Bruins signed Greg McKegg (1 Year / $700,000 AAV)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ON3M4N</b></div><div>Meh, we'll find out I guess. I still think TOR/MTL are behind Boston. Neither team made huge strides to improve their teams this off-season.</div></div>

Toronto additions: Brodie, Simmonds, Bogosian coupled with Campbell from last season address the needs that everyone has been bringing up against them.
Montreal: Josh Anderson, Tyler Toffoli, and emerging Kotkaniemi, and Suzuki.

Both teams to me have taken leaps and bounds by addressing their weaknesses.

Sujet: Boston Bruins signed Greg McKegg (1 Year / $700,000 AAV)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ON3M4N</b></div><div>I expect Chara to return so really the same defense that allowed the lowest among of GA last year is returning everyone expect their worst defensive d-man

Last year

Chara - McAvoy
Krug - Carlo
Grz - Lauzon

What I expect for this year

Chara - McAvoy
Grz - Carlo
Zboril - Lauzon

Sure some guys are getting older, but on the flip side those younger guys have more experience and should continue to develop. Studnicka is a guy that should make the NHL club this year and looked really good in the playoffs but we'll see what happens. I don't see a huge drop off, but I don't expect them have the best record next year either.

As for Rask, if Boston felt like he wasn't going to return (and he's spoken with Sweeney) they would have gone out and acquired a #1 goalie to go with Halak. Seeing as they didn't, it tells me that Rask is playing next season.</div></div>

The Bruins just don't scare me as much this year, and as a Leafs fan with the trauma of two game seven exits in a row that takes a lot for me to say.

Sujet: Boston Bruins signed Greg McKegg (1 Year / $700,000 AAV)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ON3M4N</b></div><div>Do they really get worse? I mean with 63/88 out to start the season it'll hurt, but right now it looks like nearly the same team is returning + Craig Smith (whose an upgrade). They lost their PP specialist in Krug, but I don't think the PP will take a huge hit. I personally don't think some of the additions other teams in the division have made have been earthshattering.</div></div>

It's not just the losses to me that hurt.
First, the defense: McAvoy, Carlo, Miller, Moore, Lauzon, etc. Is that a contender level defense?
Second, Bergeron isn't getting younger, neither is Krejci and they are both approaching the age where a drop off in play is expected.
Third, Is Rask coming back, if he isn't Boston is royally screwed.

I'm not saying they aren't good, but I am saying is that I don't think they are a lock for top two in the Atlantic.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bhavikp27</b></div><div>It's depth, you need players for your AHL club as well.

Yet neither of these teams will catch us or Tampa.</div></div>

I think a team could catch Boston this year, especially if Pasta or Marchand is out, your defense doesn't look as strong without Krug (a signing could make that better). Boston is also ageing, I really think that a team like Toronto, or (longshot) Montreal could catch a banged up Bruins. I mean without Marchand and Pasta where does your scoring come from?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ON3M4N</b></div><div>AHL signing, that's why its a two-way deal, same for Booth (although they have no need for more goalies)</div></div>

Yes, but with an ageing Bergeron and Krejci, a goalie in Tuuka Rask that has been entertaining retirement, and an injured forward core this year, can you call them contenders right now, I mean I know the type of season they had last year, but they've gotten worse this year while every other team in the Atlantic has gotten better (except maybe Tampa but they won the cup last year so we can't criticize them).

I just don't see them as being the dominant force they have been going forward.

Sujet: Boston Bruins signed Greg McKegg (1 Year / $700,000 AAV)

What is Boston doing, their window is beginning to close and they can't do anything better than Zboril, McKegg, and Callum Booth. This doesn't make sense to me. Pastrnak is out for the beginning of the shortened season, Marchand out, Rask MIA, they need guys to fill holes until those guys can return, and a replacement for Krug would come in handy.

Forum: NHL Signings14 oct. 2020 à 14 h 36

Sujet: Boston Bruins signed Callum Booth (1 Year / $700,000 AAV)

What is up with Boston now, Their forwards are injured, Krug just walked away, they have a lot of cap space, and the best they can do is sign Callum Booth, are they trying to get worse?

Sujet: Vegas Golden Knights signed Alex Pietrangelo (7 Years / $8,800,000 AAV)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Kotkaniemi15</b></div><div>Anyone that voted no is just salty that he didn’t sign with their team. Great signing for the Golden Knights.</div></div>

They're paying him at a cap hit of 8.8 mil until he is 37. He's not going to be worth it by then, if they decide to buy him out or trade him at that point Vegas is going to start gaining a reputation of signing people and then dumping them. Right now it's a good signing, but they just put themselves in cap hell and they have to pay a 37 year old 8.8 later.

Interesting, do you think Pietrangelo could go to Buffalo?

Sujet: Buffalo Sabres signed Taylor Hall (1 Year / $8,000,000 AAV)

Wondering if Buffalo has to be taken seriously if they sign Pietrangelo now.
Bold prediction Pietrangelo goes to Sabres. (Mostly because I hate Boston and I don't think Vegas has the cap space.)

Nice, Doughty or Pietrangelo though, Doughty just stuck on a bad team right now, I think that he has had a better career overall though.

Lafreniere should still be first, Stuetzle was the right choice at third, I agree that Ottawa should have gone for Drysdale at fifth, and Jarvis doesn't deserve to go ahead of Perfetti, Lundell, or Askarov.

Leafs want a RD and when Dubas gets one we all start grousing about the cap hit.

Typical Leafs fan reaction to anything.

Sujet: Best Guess

As the Senators I would go for Drysdale, hoping for a partner for Chabot, also names like Batherson, Abramov, and others make me rather confident in the offense. Other than that I think it's a good job.
