fun topic but bruins aren't a destination right now. Also Don doesn't do this kind of thing & Larkin is not worth 2 ones plus zacha.
Larkin is a really good #2 Center! Zacha, Lysel and a first max! You 2 are on glue!
If you have been watching the SCF with Vegas and Carolina, you can see the speed, focus, and determination of the players to win.
How many of the current Bruins play like that? They seem to be at 75-80% of what's needed to win the SC. Until that improves dramatically, there is no reason to think that they can even approach getting out of the first round.
Yes. Do it Don. All day do it
Larkin is not winning the Bruins the Cup. Might win a couple more games if they make the playoffs. Bruins should stay the course. Don’t want to be trading our blue chip assets for nothing.
To me Hagens and Letourneau are untouchable. Anyone else is fair game!!!
But does Larkin wants to be in a retooling team with a lot to do to be good?
Zacha is 8 months younger than Larkin. If Zacha is in the deal, the rest of the package is not that steep. It would take more but, not a boatload.
Depends who they trade- Létourneau maybe def not hagens
Try your hardest to see if you can dump the lindholm contract on Ole Stevie he has been known to be dumb enough to take that plus a prospect and pick
IMO Bruins are still 2-3 years from completing a retool that may become a rebuild (who knows). Larkin is an awesome 2C and a good 1C but… Do we want to just repeat the cycle of: Bruins barely squeak into a playoff spot –> 1st or 2nd round exit –> Owner of the team is happy with ticket revenue –> Repeat the whole cycle?
I just feel like we should do the same process as Canucks are doing right now and Habs did in 2021. If done correctly they should suck for a few years and draft awesome new talent. We wasted our shots on the Cup in 2019 and 2023. Do the same with Pasta as they did with Marchand and trade him somewhere for a good return. We have a head start with all those 1st round picks (Florida and mainly the Leafs pick) and young potential 1C in Hagens and 2C in Minten. But this process should start mainly in changing Providence into a developement team rather than playing Patrick Brown on the 1st line. Trade Zacha to Kraken or Jets for 7th or 8th pick and draft RSD or a center/wing. Invest in young players and it will have returns.
