If we can clear all the cap and sign Hamonic, Savard and Khaira or a similar combo could round out the team nicely . Also Green does have the option of running 3 offensive lines Hoglander - Petterson - Boeser Pearson - Horvat - Garland DeBrusk - Miller - Podkolzin Motte - Dickinson - Highmore Khaira/MacEwan/etc Like it.. but maybe lets give Bo more talent for once. Khaira with Dickinson and Mackewan would be a beast of a 4th line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need size in top 6 and cant go into next yr with the smurfs we have now. So now garland is down to the 3rd or 4th line? Smh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could go with DeBrusk riding coattails: DeBrusk - Petey - Boeser Hoggie - Horvat - Garland Pearson - Miller - Podkolzin Motte - Dickinson - Highmore Khaira/MacEwan/etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drakrami Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Wow our cap situation is actually looking up. If we manage to shed one of Schmidt/Holtby, sign Pettersson/Hughes to 7mil max each. And sign Dickinson/Garland to cheap contracts, we do actually have some cap to spend still. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like JB as GM, better than smug Gillis imho, but I really think there must be some influence from the Sedins in all this. Too early to tell but all the moves so far seem like wins or lateral moves and no losses. Fingers crossed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we got Debrusk and Clifton for Holtby and Schmidt we get 2 players who can slot into our lineup plus we gain around 6m in cap to chase another RHD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 20 minutes ago, Top Sven Baercheese said: Ugh it's painful to look at the Bruins stats. Such good signings: Bergeron - 6.875M Pastrnak - 6.67M Marchand - 6.125 McAcoy - 4.9M That's some really good cap management. That being said, most of these contracts end in the next year or 2. Boston needs to load up now while they have all these players. Schmidt is unlikely I think, but he would honestly be great for their powerplay. Holtby fits their mold perfectly, as they have money for him this year, but won't have money for him next year. They can role wtih a Holby/Rask combo and take some pressure of both guys. I'd go for Studnicka, or a 3rd/2nd round pick for Holtby. I love the motor on Studnicka. I'd be very happy with him as the return. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Provost Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 (edited) How about Nick Ritchie? We apparently need some “heft”.

BPA Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Well since BOS has so much cap space, then maybe just Holtby (no retention) for 2nd 2022. Then Canucks get a $1M backup and add $3M to the cap space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
