Kitch, kreider I like always did. .if they can trade for him I'd certainly go for it although Gorton won't let him go easily. ..having said that I doubt he's an option.

BBB it's been said that stamkos can play wing that's where I put him on the lines I made. Spoon plays on the third line. Now you have options up front. See how things go , then trading a krejci (move stam back to centre) or a spoon for a quality Dman is certainly a possibility as well. Imo mcQ and krug are nothing to be worried about in replacing. MCQ ia a 7th dman and krug if he's not scoring and he hasn't is a liability. I mean how much do those 2 really bring? Kmiller imo is going get better and better. needless to say having the possibility to sign a stamkos is a rarity especially given his age. Had he been 28 and up then I wouldn't consider it but the guy is 25, still very young Stamkos is a much needed addition. ..ex if I'm SJ id try to unload JT and marleau to get him If I'm st louis I'd definitely try hard to get him And so on and so on.. As far as the 3-4 yr plan ..scrap it.if all they do is sign average dmen In 4 years both berg and DK will be 34 ...I wint be one to depend on them at that time certainly not in the playoffs. I also don't think both of them will have much left in the tank at 34.. stamkos in 4 yrs will be 29. If Spoon pastr and maybe frankie produce well The bruins could be right back in the thick of things. ..
“
Stamkos prefers to play centre, which creates a top-six logjam with Valtteri Filppula and triplet Tyler Johnson. It sounds like the Lightning would prefer Stamkos to play on the wing to ease that issue. From what I’ve been told, the discussions were professional, but both organization and player remain searching for common ground. This is just one of the reports I have read that indicates Stamkos does not want to play on the Wing. Why would he sign with Boston, who would want him to play a position he does not want? I expect him to end up in Detroit. ” |

Then try.krejci at rw ... .
Still don't understand though the money is there even if we keep krejci..
They will have to say bye to krug which doesn't bother me one bit. .

Doubt Krejci has ever played on the Wing, even as a kid. He is a prototypical playmaking Center, and is a bad fit on either Wing. Your lack of interest in the defense, cracks me up. The top 4 D get more ice time than the best forward, so their performance can have more of an impact on the outcome of a game, even if you don't find their job exciting. This team does not get better, by adding to their strengths and further depleting their weakest area. Also, signing Stamkos probably means saying bye bye to Marchand next year. Sorry, but Stamkos is just not a fit for the Bruins. |

Stamkos is a fit for every single Nhl team.
Bruins have over 20m in cap space... whats the issue.? You don't want krejci at rw ..fine put pastr that's secondary when dk gets back you trade him and get your dman. what's primary is to take the opportunity to sign a 25 yr old scoring dynamo which unfortunately our past bozo gave away one for nothing. ....
Over 20m in cap space and still all I hear is why we can't sign him...
This team needs to be reanimated and stamkos no one else can do that

Over 20m in cap space and still all I hear is why we can't sign him... This team needs to be reanimated and stamkos no one else can do that Stll not convinced that Krejci is tradeable before the start of the season, which would have to happen to make the team cap compliant. The 20M in Cap space is not as big a cushion as you seem to think. With only 16 players under contract, and the team needing at least one top 6 winger, 2 quality d-men, and a backup goalie, plus needing to re-sign Krug, the 20M will be used up quickly For example... KYLE OKPOSO (RW) 5M TOREY KRUG (D) 4M DAN HAMUIS (D) 5M KRIS RUSSEL (D) 4.5M That leaves 1.5M to re-sign Connolly, Ferraro, C Miller, J Morrow, and a back-up goalie, so without some trades, even a small overhaul like the above is impossible. Forget about bringing in someone with a 10M - 12M Cap hit. Also, Tampa Bay has had to do without Stamkos for prolonged periods the past 2 years, and their wins and losses don't seem to indicate that Stamkos makes any difference whether he is in the lineup, or not. |

Don't resign krug ..(trade him...)
No use getting dmen if this offence stays as is with a band aid winger.
Both millers will have more experience on D
Then there's trotman morrow and who knows from Prov .might be a surprise.
By next year we should start to see the zborils and Carlo's
As far as back up...have we given up on Subban? Gotto have a real cheap back up
If this team wanrs to re gain cup contender status in the next 2 years ....they need a stamkos.

If either Miller, or Morrow or Trotman have to play top 4 minutes, I see another year out of the playoffs. As far as Subban goes, I haven't read anything anywhere, but wonder if it would be a good idea to have Subban on the team this up-coming season. If he plays well, the Bruins can only protect 1 goalie in the expansion draft next summer, and would face the prospect of losing him or Rask. Probably safer to go with another 1M veteran for this season. In 2 years, John Tavares could become a UFA, so saying Stamkos is the only option, is silly. |

Tavares? You already know for a fact that he won't be resigned by the isles..furthermore he" ll be 27 in 2 years. That's 2 yrs older then Stamkos is now and there's no gurantee he"ll be a FA .stamkos is a rare FA catch given his age. .. you have a shot ...you take it..
As far as the D....krug imo isn't a step up on those dmen you mentioned. .
As for subban ..does this mean we leave him in the Ahl till the expansion draft..I haven't looked at the rules but can't they draft a player after a certain amount of games played in the AhL...
Anyhow, if it did come to that leave Rask unprotected. Theyll be very hesitant in taking his contract.

Anyhow, if it did come to that leave Rask unprotected. Theyll be very hesitant in taking his contract. One of the expansion draft rules I am sure about, is that players with NMC's must be protected, and Rask has one. I think Subban could be taken, even if he does not play in the NHL, but I figure Las Vegas will be looking for goalies with NHL experience. |

The Bruins could certainly afford to sign Stamkos from a financial standpoint. They have over $21.6 million in cap space to work with, according to Spotrac. Stamkos will presumably require a contract with an annual cap hit equal to or greater than that of Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews’ $10.5 million with the Chicago Blackhawks.

Rotten organization won't sign him they need the extra money for closet moth balls for their 1960's suits kept in the closet...that's boston for you. Its a miracle we have a cup in 2011 with these clowns heading the team. ..
I hear they may be talking to ...kelly and milan
Boy what a joke...
Harsh years they are a coming

KELLY,WE TALKIN ABOUT KELLY ? Yep. And there is zero reason to even think of re-signing him. They could have just kept Ferraro who is younger and faster. Also, as far as I'm concerned, letting go of Connolly was an effort to make PC look bad. No reason not to keep him for 1M, and trade Jimmy Hayes (the smallest big man in the NHL). This management team has me very worried about their plan for July 1st. I am expecting them to do something monumentally stupid. I'm just not sure what it is going to be. |

Btw BBB...the thought that DS would do anything to make PC look bad is totally ridiculous.First, Chia did that extremely well by himself second why on earth would he be talking or even whispering to Kelly after
Chia gave him a jackpot...
Consequently, since DS" mission is to make more of a mockery of Chia then. Trade Spoon, Pastr, morrow, Krug etc etc....
