qwksndmonster Posted June 29, 2015 Report Posted June 29, 2015 I'm not even talking about the natural cycle of money and age...their new management has no idea what they're doing. The flippin' wookie would have the Bruins in better shape. (bwahahahaha eff you Baahstan) Quote
thewookie1 Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 The flippin' wookie would have the Bruins in better shape. (bwahahahaha eff you Baahstan) I at least, would have a seemingly coherent plan. Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 I at least, would have a seemingly coherent plan. I think you would have drafted a hell of a lot better too. Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Pierre LeBrun @Real_ESPNLeBrun 15s16 seconds ago Hearing that the San Jose Sharks have acquired Martin Jones from the Boston Bruins Pierre LeBrun @Real_ESPNLeBrun 1m1 minute ago Not sure what Sharks gave up, but they've acquired Jones, whom I believe San Jose has been after for a very long time.

Hoss Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) LeBrun: Believe it's a pick and a prospect headed over to Boston for Jones... WOW Sharks give up a 2016 first-round draft pick plus unsigned prospect Sean Kuraly for Martin Jones It might be unpopular but the Bruins did VERY well in the Lucic deal. They got two firsts plus a couple prospects for a guy that expires in a year. Edited June 30, 2015 by Hoss Quote
Brawndo Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Dammit we can't make fun of the Bruins for this one. Quote
WildCard Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) Good on Boston. I don't get this move for SJ though. Edited June 30, 2015 by WildCard Quote
dudacek Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 That supports the young controlled asset backup is worth way more than the UFA-to-be backup theory. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Word is that Jones was causing lockerroom problems in Boston, wasn't mature enough. Plus he had 0 hits last year. Quote
Brawndo Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 @DarrenDreger: Hamilton extension is 6 yrs and close to $34.5 mil total. Flames pushed for 8 yrs and Hamilton wanted 5. Good compromise. Damn Boston Quote
thesportsbuff Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Dammit we can't make fun of the Bruins for this one. Can't make fun of the Bruins, but you can have a field day with their fans. Some of them are actually mad about trading Jones, as if it made any sense to keep him as backup. Quote

Some of them are actually mad about trading Jones, as if it made any sense to keep him as backup. They are upset about turning a pending UFA into 2 First Round Picks and two prospects? Unbelievable Quote
Doohicksie Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 So the Bruins are the 2012 Sabres.... just starting to dismantle. Poor bastages. Quote
thesportsbuff Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 They are upset about turning a pending UFA into 2 First Round Picks and two prospects? Unbelievable To be fair, the tweets I read were before the return was announced. But they were more of the "omg what are they doing moving Jones!!" variety. Quote
Brawndo Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 To be fair, the tweets I read were before the return was announced. But they were more of the "omg what are they doing moving Jones!!" variety. With all the championships in the past ten years, we can make fun of them Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 LeBrun: Believe it's a pick and a prospect headed over to Boston for Jones...

They got two firsts plus a couple prospects for a guy that expires in a year. Maybe one of those middle firsts will become half as good as Hamilton :p It's amazing how a series of good moves is completely obliterated by one blunder. But in this case I think it's definitely true. Word is that Jones was causing lockerroom problems in Boston, wasn't mature enough. Plus he had 0 hits last year. :lol: Quote
Brawndo Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 @NHLFREEAGENTS: Retweeted Elliotte Friedman (@FriedgeHNIC): Chicago and Columbus are working in a trade involving Brandon Saad. More to come. Quote
Hoss Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Holy . Artem Anisomov and Marko Dano part of the package going the other way. Quote
WildCard Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 @NHLFREEAGENTS: Retweeted Elliotte Friedman (@FriedgeHNIC): Chicago and Columbus are working in a trade involving Brandon Saad. More to come. Holy hell, what could either team possibly be trying for? Quote
Hoss Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Renaud Levoie: Same info here than @FriedgeHNIC lots of interest for Brandon Saad. Penguins are ahead of the others and a deal can be done. #tvasports Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 WildCard: if Saad gets moved, I am apologizing in advance for pooh-pooing the idea. Never in a kajillion years did I think it would happen. If their demands for a Sharp trade were too high to get a deal done and that ends up costing them Saad, that's a Boston-Hamilton-esque screw up. Quote
Brawndo Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Done @TSNBobMcKenzie: Brandon Saad traded to CBJ. Quote
Brawndo Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Not sure I would have done this for Sharp @thekapman: Hearing Brandon Saad is very close to being traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets. Deal would probably keep Patrick Sharp a Blackhawk. Quote
