If you guys are willing to gives up a 3rd or 4th or whatever why not? We have the space and can will still have plenty of room to fit in Meier.

Even if he doesn't play you're basically just buying a draft pick for $300k or whatever he's owed.
- BINGO!

Something tells me the third rounder this year is going to Columbus. 4th rounder next year it is, book it.

Or stand in the way of us needing to spend assets to get rid of terrible contracts. Doesn't surprise me, seems like its a pretty common theme for him now.

Got lucky that Bergeron decided to sign for as low as he did to keep it all together one more time.

Bergy and Krejci. Its made for one hell of a season but the good fortune behind cheap contracts is about to end for the bruins. You always hope for another year. I think both Bergy and Krejci could do it, but nothing is guaranteed.

No kidding, The Athletic has a good take on Gavrikov...to sum it up, stay away! I hope we do NOT get that player. I stand by my desire for Schenn and call it a day on d-men.

I love the orlov over gavrikov move. I despise Hathaway but he’s also a perfect 4th line poop stirrer with a good motor.

Great move

Now trade Orlov for Schenn and I'll be happy.

Solid trade

I think Columbus overplayed their hand on Gavrikov

Pretty darn expensive for rentals.

Nah. That's a great deal.

All in!!

Honestly this won't happen. Play orlov on the 3rd.line and Hathaway is a poop starter, but he hits everything. Need that. This is expensive for the return, but I will say in one trade to rid smith (cap dump) and return two assets while there is retrained salary. This is FAR better than a gavrikov trade
