Thread: Next Season
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Celtics21</b></div><div>Why is Boston retaining and not getting anything for it?

Lindholm is making a lot of the money he lost during the season back with his playoff. Solid two play, consistently winning board battles. He looks like a very good option at center if he’ll come</div></div>

I honestly don't think Ullmark's trade value is as high as most BOS fans think. Small retention to incentivise the higher graded prospect.

Ya I've really liked what i've seen from Lindholm in the playoffs. Great at the dot, more physical than people think, high IQ, and plays the bumper on PP1 which BOS desperately needs.

Edit: I also don't see how you can fit Heinen without taking away opportunity from a rookie, like Merkulov, Brazz, or Lysell. Unless they decide to trade Geekie or Frederic, which I don't really see happening, I don't think they re-sign Heinen.

Thread: (CBJ/BOS) - Peeke for Zboril, 2027 3rd (BOS)
Sweeney forgot Zboril wasn't on the roster and didn't need to dump him LOL.

On a serious note, it's a whatever trade. Yes BOS has a weakness on the right side in terms of depth in the future, so I could see why they were interested in the term Peeke has. I know the probability of that 3rd turning into an NHL player is extremely low, but still feel like they could've leveraged CBJ possibly trying to dump Peeke in the future like some reports indicate.

Definitely seems like BOS was targeting Peeke. We'll see how it works out.

Oh and don't forget about that whole fiasco at last years deadline involving Gavrikov. CBJ felt like they had a deal in place and BOS pulled out at the last moment. May have played a factor here, who knows. Fun to think about.

Thread: Selling and Buying
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nhl_oilers</b></div><div>Why so low? I'm assuming it would cost a lot more for DeBrusk. I would do this in a heartbeat too, and like you said, it wouldn't be hard to sign him to an extention i don't think, because he is from Edmonton, gets to play with Draisaitl, and his father Loui DeBrusk is in Edmonton too!</div></div>

I wasn't too sure how much EDM fans value Holloway right now. Figured most would be hesitant on moving him considering his age and draft position. But I guess EDM fans are more willing to move him now for immediate production.

There's no doubt JD will produce a lot more consistently being on a line with McDavid or Drai. Maybe I am selling too low on JD.

Seems like a win win for both teams. EDM doesn't lose much and stays in a good position to make another trade for a Dman while bolstering their forward group to win now. BOS sells on a pending UFA they seem kind of hesitant on extending, and get younger on which was supposed to be a bridge year for BOS.
