I think Columbus values Anderson highly....To the point where they're supposedly considering buying out Hartnell to make sure they can keep him.

De haan is triple the player spooner is and Isles need 2nd center and scoring wingers.

The main things i disagree with are the Anderson-Miller trade. I think Anderson is a good 3rd liner who has potential to possibly become a 2nd liner ... and the Vegas thing. In my opinion it would take more than that to get them to take McQuaid.

spooner gonna help with the power play huh? with his ground breaking 12G 38A power play numbers over 2 years? swerve bro this trade is as doody as Capuano was as coach

Spoken by someone who doesn't have a clue hahaha

Lol you should actually have watched the Bruins PP. His play on the half board is what allowed guys like Bergeron & Pasta to get good looks. There is more to improving a PP then just the G/A numbers you see in the score sheet

I dont think the reality of what the islanders need or how more valuable De haan is vs spooner matters to them...

well lets see I've played AAA my whole life, then Juniors,then College... I'd say I have a good Idea about the game, how its played, and talent evaluation...

Cool! Good for you. Your comment on spooner and helping a PP tells me this is null and void. No one cares what you supposedly did. This is the internet where you can make anything up.

I really don't care what you want to believe. so hes one of the best power play players in the league? clearly hes amazing as he got benched in the playoffs and is being shopped by his team LMFAO. if hes sooooo good on then why dont the bruins want him? hmmmm. We have plenty of people who can move the puck on the side boards in our side board umbrella PP. what we dont have is someone to take shots from the point, or some one to move play to behind the net, to create a shift in the Penalty kill, to open up more room in the middle of the zone.

furthermore spooner is no game changer power play guru alright. hes an average player whos a little better on the PP whos been surrounded by more talented players and make him look better than he is. guess what if he wasn't: boston wouldn't be trading him now would they. lemme know when you get a clue though

Clearly spoken by someone who has never watched him enough to form a legitimate opinion on him. He is very good on the PP. No one here called him a "Game changer powerplay guru". All Bruins fans above have said he is good on the PP and would help a PP greatly.

Boston is only looking to trade him b/c they have JFK on an ELC who may be ready for a 3rd line role. There is no denying Spooner struggles in his own end and at the dot. However, the Bruins really don't have room for him at anywhere but center. He'd be better off as a LW (a position Boston already has a bunch of pieces at). So they're looking to move an asset. They're not actively shopping him because he's terrible. You're the one who needs to get a clue. Smug little plug who confirms he doesn't watch the Bruins.

Take a seat.....You're not an expert. Stop acting like one. hahahahahah

in his own end, on the dot, 5v5. congratulations you have a player who's slightly above average in one facet of the game! claps for you.

him being better on the wing is not why they want to move him that is legitimately the dumbest thing on this thread. your GM, wants to add depth. if spooner was so dank and awesome that he can pull a sought after RFA Dman coming off his best year so far (unlike spooner dehaan actually gets better year to year) why... would they need to look outward to add depth. Spooner is a doody player, who's above average on a PP thats it. claude Julian didn't like him all that much and apparently neither does Cassidy, because he BENCHED HIS ASS IN THE PLAYOFFS. could he help a power play: if there are already shooters in place for the PP yea. he is not your Gamechanging PP guy and hes not an answer to the islanders PP. he does not command this value. hes probably a 3rd round picks worth and thats only because hes young and has plenty of RFA years left. I'm sorry you overestimate spooners value

NEXT.

Your opinion is null-and-void. You have no knowledge on the Bruins. Stick to the Isles.
