They got next to nothing.
THEY GOT SHIT !
Youâve successfully traded the best HOF Player on the team . And we get a2nd round pick in 27 âŚ. Yaaaahooo!!
Ownerships fault
Emily never said beg
Anyone defending Don Sweeney's results as GM simply need to have their heads examined as his results have not just been bad, theyâve been brutal
Have the Bruins been playoff winners under Don Sweeneyâs tenure as GM? NO!!
After this year, 9 of the last 10 years the Bruins have failed to win more than 1 playoff round going back to 2015, his first year as GM
A decade as GM and the Bruins under Sweeney have won ONE, lousy 2nd round series, ONE
All those regular season wins that Bruins homers scream aboutâŚ. All won on the backs of the Hall of Fame Core Don Sweeney inherited of:
Bergeron Chara Marchand Pastrnak Rask Krejci and Krug
Anyone notice that as that core he inherited got old, retired or went elsewhere that the team has gone into the absolute toilet talent wise?
As for drafting and developing, thereâs not a single GM that has done a worse job at those things than than Don Sweeney ahs
In 10 years Don Sweeney has madd 54 draft picks and to date, only 6 of those players play for the Boston Bruins, SIX!!!
Lauko, Beecher, Poitras, Lohrei McAvoy and Swayman, thatâs it
Don Sweeney has made nearly 40, 3rd-7th round draft picks at Forward or Defense since 2015 and when you piss away most of your high draft capital, you have to hit on âsomeâ guys later in the draft…
Total Number of D-Men Sweeney has drafted in rounds 3-7 in 10 years as GM that play or have played for the Boston Bruins?
NO ONE!!!! Not a single D-Man Don Sweeney has ever drafted in rounds 3-7 has played a single shift in the NHL to date
Total Number of Forwards Sweeney has drafted in rounds 3-7 in 10 years as GM that play or have played for the Boston Bruins?
Jacob Lauko (122 NHL games), then itâs Oscar Steen (60 NHL games) and Jonna Koppanen (5 NHL games)
Thatâs it a 4th liner in Lauko and two nothings
So in a decade of drafting forwards and d-men (nearly 40 draft picks) Sweeney's haul has been nothing at Defense and Jacob Lauko, a player he had to trade for to get back. THESE ARE HORRIBLE RESULTS!!!
And for Bruins Homers who say Don Sweeney hasnât had enough draft capital or that he hasnât had enough 1st or 2nd round picksâŚ.
Don Sweeney started his tenure as GM with 6, 1st round draft picks and 5, 2nd round draft picks in just his first 3 years as GM
Those 1st round picks were at 13, 14 (twice), 15, 18, and 29 (so not 32nd like Bruins homers like to lie about)
4 of the 6 1st were in the Top 15 and 5 of the 6 1st were in the Top 18
Sorry Bruins Homers, thatâs not drafting 32nd every year in the First Round like all of you lie about when trying to to defend your savior Don Sweeney
Of those 11 1st or 2nd round draft picks hereâs who is left:
Charlie McAVoy, thatâs it. One FN guy
So to review Don Sweeneyâs tenure as GM….
He Inherited a Hall of Fame core and a crap to of high draft capital to start his tenure as GM
His teams, after this spring, would have failed to win more than 1 playoff round 9 of his 10 years as GM
The Bruins today posses the NHLâs worst farm system and if it's not the worst, it's 100% in the bottom 5 of the league
Don Sweeney started out with 6, 1st round and 5, 2nd round draft picks in his first 3 years as GM, and all that remains of those high picks is Charlie FN McAvoy
The big club roster has less talent on it than it ever has after 10 years with Don Sweeney as GM and their Farm System is at the bottom of the league as well
No playoff winning, bad big club roster, bad farm system and the team is in Cap Jail every year
These have been Don Sweeneyâs results for the Boston Bruins homers as GM.
These also arenât opinions, this is just what he has achieved, bottom line, end of story. Facts and Stats > Opinions
Keep defending Don Sweeney Bruins Homers
How and why you do this, Iâll never know because it certainly can't be on what he has achieved as GM of this team.
As Don Sweeney's results and his results alone, says that he is fairly terrible at being a GM in the National Hockey League
Marchand already took a team friendly deal for 8 yearsâŚ
See if anyone does THAT againâŚ:(
so if i say i suck at my job and i didn't do my job, i get to keep it ? i wish i had known that in the past.
Did Boston retain part of his salary as well?
I think Florida threw in new tires for the Zamboni as well … Great job front office. …
