CDCr's cry endlessly about JB paying a premium to a couple of key players like Miller, Dorsett and Sbisa in exchange for no NTC's, while lamenting how other teams like the Flames are suddenly so much better than us, we'll see soon enough.

In the meantime, Calgary trades away three draft picks in a deep draft for a rookie D-man who's demanding a J Bouwmeester type overpayment of up to $7 million a year, while still needing to sign Giordano for even bigger numbers, have fun choking on that.

JB will stay the course, steady as she goes.

What's with Boston and having problems in the locker room with young players? Are they bullies on and off the ice?

Might be, but the management group also seems to have problems dealing with players with "character issues".

Hawks never traded Kane because of his partying but the Bruins traded Seguin under similar circumstances. Now "loner, whiner" Hamilton has contract issues and they decide to cut their losses with him before the situation gets too "messy".

Rookie D-Man?

He is 22 and just finished his 3rd season in the NHL, scoring 42 points.

Boston got absolutely robbed by the Flames.

Rookie d-man? AS caboose just stated he just came out of his third year of pro hockey with 42 points. The Flames won this trade. Hamilton was arguably the best d-man the Bruins had on the roster, three picks with only one first rounder going to the Bruins is a steal IMO for Dougie.

Everything I have read has indicated he didn't want to stay with the Bruins and had worn out his welcome.

He wasn't comfortable being with the Bruins long term because he wants to be paid like Doughty and Shattenkirk, this was not happening in Boston thus he had worn out his welcome, he did.

Hopefully for Calgary's sake he has more interest in being there long term and not being there problem down the road. As much as Sweeney showed he could be a little green, this was equally mismanaged from both the player and team's side.

Start off bidding high, settle in the middle. Nothing unusual. He should get $7ish mill money. He is a top 5 dman in the league.

Lol top 5.. Hedman, Karlson, OEL, Keith, Doughty, Pieterangelo, Weber, Suter are all better. And that's off the top of my head, probs 15 D-men better

And end up with 4 Sbisas in our top 4. If you want that number1 d-man you got to pay or draft him develop him and pay for him later on.

If Cal is smart, they flip Gio to TBay...

Drouin, Vasilevsky & DeAngelo/Koekkcoca~cola(sp?)

Gio & mid-pick.

Get all yer ducks in a row, & similarly-aged.

Yeah that might work if, you know, the cap didnt exist and stuff.

Subban, Karlsson, Doughty, Kieth, Weber.

Meanwhile Gio was a runaway favorite for the norris trophy before his injury.
