speedy Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Holy crap.The Bruins are leading. They look like they got their chemistry back.Awesome.I wouldn't jump the gun yet, there's still a lot of work to be done here. Without Horton and Pevs for awhile this team is going to scrape along offensively, a la 2008-2010. I still believe if they're healthy and with an added offensive piece this is the best team in the east. Could they go into Detroit and win 4 games in a final? MAYBE. It's a terrifying thought.I think Rask is such an overrated goalie and would love to see him moved for an offensive weapon. I just can't see a scenario where Rask and Thomas are on this team next year. It fiscally makes no sense, sure there's like $16 million to play with, but tying we'll say $10 million up on two goaltenders isn't a good idea. Sure Thomas is old, but ride that wave. That said, I don't want Nash. Don't get me wrong, he's a great player, but I don't like the thought of bringing in a guy who was the face of a franchise for so long this late in the season. The Bruins have great chemistry, because they really aren't THAT great, so it's going to be hard to find a guy to plug in there. Chiarelli has had a good pulse of this team for years, so I trust his move making. However, if I wake up the day after the deadline and we add another top 4 defenseman I'm going to bash my head against the wall. For whatever reason he's almost incapable of not picking one up at the deadline.The Bruins WILL NOT trade Tuukka, not with Tim Tom in the twilight of his career.I also think that adding another defensive piece to make up for the craptasticness that is Joe Corvo is what they currently want to do, unless Pev and Horty are out for a really, really long time.Rask is a RFA who will likely get a contract similar to Tim's (money wise), if they don't trade either of them I wouldn't mind them locking up Rask long term and not resigning Thomas in 2013. HOWEVER, if you can win now you do it. I don't personally think Rask is worth 5 mil; his play is shoddy, his technique comes and goes, and he just seems lost on some nights. I'd rather him dealt then keep him around. I think Tim's got 2 more years in him, he's driven and LOVES proving people wrong. He'll play until that hip fails him again.So with that said I'm not concerned with losing Rask if it means adding offense. We could find another Rask in the draft because with the Bruins is more the system than the goalie. Unfortunately if you trade either one of them, you'd have to pick up a veteran net minder in the discount bin, I'm not sold on anybody in Providence just yet.

LMU Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Well, that definitely helps the offense quite a bit, and considering that the Kings are so defense-oriented, I don't think there'll be too much of a dropoff considering that Voynov has stayed up most of the year.I'll definitely say though that I would have preferred that they traded Bernier instead. Having two skilled goalies with all the other question marks is a little insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still MIGHTY Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Yeah, I say the Jackets win this trade.I don't know if Carter will create that much offensive uptick for the Kings, and the Jackets now have a legit #1 defenseman instead of Wisniewski filling that role. And add in another 1st rounder for them. Columbus wins this, yeah. Now to see what they're going to do with it. I'd think they'll keep Nash around now, too. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zpqmaowl Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Now we can average 2.1 goals per game instead of 2.07. the worst helmets design to me is the Jacksonville jaguars hamlets from 1995 to 2012 because you can't see the logo vary wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
