Sujet: Now we trade Sway
Okay so now that you have brady skjei and hampus lindholm you should put Lohrei into the deal instead of lysell. Lohrei has a ton of talent and now you're gonna waste it on the bottom pair for 6 years. Brutal looks. Either don't sign skjei (bruins dont need him anyway tbh) or trade lohrei because he needs power play time and top 4 minutes in the next 2 years max and he wont get that until hes 30.

Same scenario with poitras. You want poitras playing center and hes gonna have to wait for top 6 minutes for 2 years max as well. I don't mind that for the growth but now, for the first time since bergeron and krejci, you have too much center depth and have to move a solid center to the wing, you've already done that with coyle though. This team has a very short term vibes, you've covered issues for the next 2 years but created a couple more for the years after that.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BruceBanner</b></div><div>A great looking team. I would argue they are happy with Skinner. So swayman would work. Might have to do a three team trade to move swayman out. Maybe take back Nurse or part of!?</div></div>

No thank you. I don't know why this guy is trading swayman to be honest.

Nurse would be on the bottom pair making minimum 4,625,000. Thats a ton of money for a not great dman to make on your bottom pair. Also swayman arguably helps the bruins more than draisaitl does by you know being a top 10 goalie in the league, he's also really good in the playoffs (highest GSAx out of any goalie in the playoffs this year). I have little faith in korpisalo, him being on the team brings back 2019 vibes when they were comfortable with having rask in net and scared sh!tless when halak was in net.

Sujet: Ottawa Deal
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KennyBoi</b></div><div>Ya this trade is much more win/win for both teams.

I was under the impression there would be an extension already in place for Ullmark, justifying the initial rumor. I guess talks weren't great and OTT is banking on a good year with a taste of living in OTT to entice Ullmark in staying more.

OTT gets their proven veteran starter they wanted, but is a pending ufa. Get out of the Korpisalo contract sort of, but I don't totally think BOS saw him as a cap dump.

BOS gets a 1st rnd pick. A retained 1B that will likely see his numbers rebound in BOS, that can be flipped for more assets. And I'm high on Kastelic also, will bring a much needed big body bruiser with energy in the bottom6.</div></div>

I see this more as a win for ottawa than boston. People will see korpisalos numbers rebound in boston and immediately chalk it up to having a better team to play with and the return will be super light. The retention on korpi is actually really piss poor when you consider ullmark was moved to help clear cap and the bruins cleared a whole 1.2 million. That first round pick is also just not enticing to me, its value is super low because of how bad this years draft is. I think this 1st wouldnt even get you a 2nd in the 2025 or 2026 draft thats how light this draft is in its talent. Maybe korpi isnt a total cap dump but 3 million for 4 years of a backup is giving john moore 2.75 for 5 years to be a 7th dman or David Backes signing vibes all over again. I dont want to be negative because the points you bring up are all very good, its just hard to look at this trade in a positive light.

The best thing I can say here is I hope kastelic does well, hes like brazeau but cant score as well, so a young maroon.
If we're going based off draft range I think the bruins should select 1 of two right shot dmen ej emery or charlie elick. Big right shot dmen, dont have a lot of those in the system if any. I wish I had EP premium to see who the consolidated 25th ovr pick was.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jpsnow13</b></div><div>Good point. I do love Lohrei's game. Can he take top 4 minutes on a contending team, maybe not yet but probably soon indeed. That said, I don't take for granted both players would be extended long term, or a least not sure it would be agreed prior to a trade. I think it is plausible Ullmark agrees to raise his NTC for Ottawa but waits to assess the locker room for part of the next season before comiting long term. There's red flags in OTT after all.

That said, Chychurn mostly played on the right side of Chabot the last couple seasons, which is much weaker in Boston. IDK if it's because of the injuries or their consequences, but I see Chychurn way over Carlo in the top 4, who would be relegated to a bottom pairing or traded away.</div></div>

I agree that Lohrei is not quite ready to carry the heavy minutes yet however I disagree about carlo being traded or put on the third pair. Carlo had an oustanding year for the Bruins last year and most people would never know because he's defense first. Peeke was also awesome down the stretch but his play in columbus overshadows that. My issue is Lohrei needs to get the power play time and with McAvoy, Lindholm and (in this case) now chychrun, I fear he wont get that time.
