Are the Bruins in win now mode? Or are they retooling, having traded Marchand?

I’d rather not trade him, but this is a golden opportunity.

I also wonder, given Hagens outspokeness in wanting to be an Islander, are some teams worried about him as an eventual flight risk?

Welp. Knew he wasn’t making it past them. At least it wasn’t Philly.

He'd be a great pick, but the mock drafts having him going sooner.

Mrtka has moved up in some of the mock drafts. He'd be a huge d-man playing next to Schaefer.

Edit: Nevermind.

And there goes McQueen. I don't think there's anyone else worth trading up for.

I think it's turned out to be Philly, not the Isles.

For the HB veterans, BD Galloff deserves plenty of our criticism, but IMO he nailed it with this

#isles fans disappointed by their own manufactured scenario … typical

Okay, I probably missed that. No idea.

Meanwhile, Philly traded up to take a guy with the 12th overall pick named Nesbitt. I saw one mock draft that had Nesbitt rated 29th overall...........which supports your theory that after the top 10, the draft class falls off a cliff. Now it's crapshoot time.

Yeah, truth be told, this is a terrible pool as opposed to 2026, which is fantastic

What's typical is that Galloff is still a Richard. It was a nice fantasy, but I think most of us are over it already.

Just 1 trade half way through says it too. Even with a couple of teams with 2 1st rounders.

It almost makes you wonder whether the Isles should have asked Montreal for one pick in each year (2025 and 2026), not 2 this year.
