Hit the sub button. Join me here on the channel. We’re covering everything Boston Bruins. But once again, we have so much news to cover. We’re going to jump straight into it here with a very interesting report coming out regarding one of the Bruins former top centers. Still on the team, but no longer a top center on this team. And NHL analyst Michael D. Rosa of NHL TR is reporting that the Boston Bruins are entertaining trade scenarios involving Pavle Zaka. An indication that the front office could be ready to make some bold changes this summer. Now in this article, we have this kind of headline feature and don’t really give much information. But when we jump into it, we have a report from Arpon Basu, a Montreal Canadians reporter. Keep in mind, and this is what he had to say on the topic. If Zaka can bring in a decent draft pick and a prospect within two years left on his contract, that would make a lot of sense for the Bruins to at least consider, even if it would mean dealing to the most hated uh with the hated Canadians. The part even if it would mean dealing to the hated Canadians offers a glimpse into how seriously Boston may be approaching this. Montreal has a lot of need, clear need at center as well. And while Zaka might not be a seamless fit on their second line, they could do far worse. Now, when it comes out, I feel like this has a lot of credibility from Arpon Disassu. First of all, he is a very credible reporter. Very, very good analyst. He he writes some good stuff. You know, obviously Montreal Canadians type of uh report reporter there. But still, if you’re looking for any kind of good information, he’s a guy to go to. But when it comes down to it, the reports that Montreal, we know we’re looking for a center. And when Pablo Zaka is being linked to this, that is a name been thrown out here. It caused a lot of stir in the Bruins community when it comes down to other teams rivals dealing with a trade for one of our centers. And when it comes down to it, Pablo Saka is a guy who should be a bit better than what he was this season. He was one of these players that were certainly affected by this season of a lot of downplay from the Boston Bruins. Him and Morgan Geeki, you know, started off pretty slow. Morgan Geeki did bounce back, but Papo Zaka this year in 82 games, a handful of goals at 14, 33 assists for 47 points. But the numbers are kind of all over the place, I guess, is a good way of calling this. You have just under 20 minutes time on ice. And at 28 years old, you know, just turning 28 as well. With two years left on his contract, he is a player that still has a lot of game left in the NHL. Now, whether that will be for the Boston Bruins or not is still uncertain at this time. But when it does come down to it, he is a major option for the Boston Bruins that could return a lot of value. Now, I say could because we still don’t know the idea of it yet. His value right now is, I would assume, a bit lower than what it normally could be if he were having a great season. But Pablo Zaka still has that type, that build, that player, those stats, everything that causes a good return for a center in the NHL. Now, when we go and take a look here at the offense, we know that Lindol was there to assume that position for this year. And Morgan Geeki playing the left wing. We saw Zaka there a bit. Zaka was really all over this lineup. We knew that this year when there was no certain, you know, structured lineup, I felt like it was all over the place. We saw that it was all over the place with Jim Montgomery to start. Then when it came to Joe Saka, we had a bit of, you know, common parts of lines that we saw at the end of the season. That first line really remaining the same. Pavo Zaka for a little bit. While we saw Lint not play great, was that number one center. So he has been shown that he can do that. He can play that role. But is he actually a number one center? No, he’s just not at this point even playing with Poshock and Geeki. And he saw we saw that he was the kind of the one laid behind on this line and it really went to show the assist compared to his goals that he was the the playmaker that those two needed and would be and generate quite a bit of value. Now, when we look at his contract here, he’s two years left on his deal. This year still counts. So, he has one year, which is next year coming off of that at 4.75 and it expires in 2027 when he will be 30 years old. So whatever team if it just say the Montreal Canadians in this instance take a look at Pablo Zaka assume that he can play a good role on their second even first line if needed as a center or left winger a big guy keep in mind as well at 64207 which in this instance would kind of link it to Canadians just because that’s where this article comes from the Arpon Bassu kind of idea of it they need a big center and Pavaka would certainly be that fit now Montreal Canadians have a lot of prospects have a decent amount of picks that could be in return for this and when it goes down to it a contract like This may not fit the Canadian scheme or idea right now, but the Bruins do have enough room to be able to make some retention happen with a few other retain uh retention spots after the season. The only one who is being retained right now still is Brandon Carlos. So, we can keep that in mind. We can make that work as well and make it uh you know, a few years where the Bruins eat up a little bit of cap to make a better deal uh in return for them. Now, with this, you can see the projected cap space there. I will pull it up a little bit bigger because it is hard to see, but 26.26 26 million next year. That’s enough to generate a prospect coming from back from the Montreal Canadians and maybe even a first or second round pick. If you can get a first for, you know, a first and let’s just call Frasier Mitten a young talented up and cominging star, you can se like certainly get that from the Montreal Canadians as well. There’s no doubt in my mind and especially for a guy like Pavlovaka. This trade certainly brings up a lot of conversation, but it does come down to who is going where, what’s happening when, and I’m excited to see what really does come out of this because, you know, as we see here, the front office is going to be making some bold changes summer. And that’s something that we have expected at this point, but still have not been had the opportunity yet to see. And, you know, kind of looking at these stats, I just want to pull these up one more time before we head over to our next topic. Looking at these, these are certainly numbers on a bad team this year that can generate a first line on a good team and can generate good numbers when paired with the right players. And it almost seemed like Zako just wasn’t comfortable this year with where he was playing and how he was playing throughout the season. So, let me know in the comments below, what do you want to see with Pavle Zaka? Do you think there’s a trade coming? Do you think that we could get something, you know, kind of sneaky out of him? I know there’s a few other teams as well. The Minnesota Wild looking for potentially a Marco Rossi trade while they look for another center. That’s another one that we can explore here. uh you know in a few you know few more days or weeks if we get some more reports on this but let me know what you think in the comments below here on Pavl Zaka. You know it certainly is an interesting look at it when the Bruins do have quite a few centers heading into this one and uh you know someone’s bound to be moved. I think that’s almost a guaranteed but let’s move on to our next topic here and I want to start this off a big congratulations to Team USA getting their first win at the World Hockey Championships. Jeremy Swimman playing a big part in this and I know I did kind of rip him a few videos ago that was just kind of the heat of the moment after that Norway loss. But for the remainder of this tournament, he played absolutely fantastic. Him, Andrew Peaks, uh, you know, and as well as Mason Lori all on this team. I think that they were certainly a big part in this whole team, the way that this team was playing. And it’s very good to see. And when we do look at Swayman’s stats here on this tournament, he took a big bounce back. And you know, I could even argue that a 169 goals against 921 would have been way better if that wasn’t for that Norway loss. That was just certainly a uh a fluke, I guess we can call it. But for the remainder of the tournament, Jeremy Swayman really showed that he wanted to be here. He had those quotes coming out that, you know, it was due to the season that he had that he wanted to play here. He wanted to show that, you know, get that mentality clear, clean up the mind, and show that, you know, I made for this. This was just a bad season. We’ll get back next year. And you know, I I think pulling these up once again, these numbers really go in contrast what could have been for this season and what hopefully will be next year, but not just Jeremy Swayman in this in this whole tournament. We’re looking at the top players in this tournament from points. David Posh and Elias Lindholm at the top of this list. Posh, of course, playing Machia there. Got a limited a little bit earlier, so that’s why he had eight games, but 15 points in eight games going then to Elias Lindome had 14 and 10. Keep in mind who you’re above there. guys like Nathan McKinnon, guys like Sydney Crosby, these are good numbers and especially on some pretty deep teams and you know the way that this is going to be looking for the Boston Bruins next season, these are promising numbers to say the least. And you know, it’s early. We’re still at the end of the season, not the start of the next one. But this is a very good sign for anything that we can take a look at this year. Anything that we saw this year, we can take a look on this and say, you know, this is a bit better than what we have, you know, could have ended off with. So, let me know what you think about all this stuff here as well. Hopefully Lindholm continues this. Do you think he will? Let me know in the comments below. As well as let me know what you think about the Pavle Zaka trade. It’s all I got in this video though. If you did enjoy, give it a like, hit the sub button. Remember, let me know in the comments below what you think about all of this here. We’re going to be back again tomorrow with some more videos. We have another coaching update that we will bring you in another interesting option from Elliot Freeman. So, be sure to stick around for that tomorrow. But that’s all I got in this video.

Zacha is mid anyways
Zacha for Rempe 🤪
I Hope They Don’t Trade Zacha.
As much as I like Zacha, I think trading him would be best if we could land a potentially better top 6 winger as a free agent, someone like Ehlers
Hope Sway has turned it around.
I’d be bummed if they trade Zacha. Love that dude
Hope Zacha stays. I say trade him at the trade deadline if things do not improve from this year, but i would be surprised if Zacha goes this offseason. There are also rumblings he is currently injured.
A mid first round pic for pavel zacha keep dreaming ……
No. This makes no sense from a Bruins standpoint. Just because the god almighty reporter/source from MONTREAL might make it wonderful for them. Not for us! And retain salary!?!? This is pathetic! This is the kind of return you get from a rental. Why do we even give any credibility to a biased perspective like this guy? I’m so sick of these Play Station 2 Fantasy Hockey people.
If anyone watched it was really nice to see lindholm play as good as he did he was by far swedens best player, hopefully we will see that in Boston, I really think he just had a rough start and it just didn’t fit until later in the season he’s not going to be 80-90 point guy but I think he can be a 60-70 point guy. If we get that I’m not complaining at all
A 1st pick + B prospect for Zacha…So CGY 1st 2025 + Dobes…
Please trade pastrnak as hes the softeat player outside of Toronto.dude refuses to compete for the puck constantly loses the battle for loose pucks all ge can do is shoot the puck from the same spot on the ice after his teammates fight for the puck while he floats around openice .in short i don't care howw many goals he scores the guy is not a good HOCKEY player
Exactly HOW MANY cups of coffee do you drink before you make these video's?
Slow down your narrative
I like Zacha there was to much pressure on the good players, to many areas to build a productive team…
Trade E.Lindholm, he's useless.
