Report: Boston Bruins Trade For Ducks Defenseman Hampus Lindholm

This is what I was afraid of. They just gave up this year's first rd pick. And a second rd pick in 23 and 24. For a player that's a free agent this off season. They better be able to resign him. Or win the cup. Or else it's a massive bust.

I'm stunned they gave up as much as they did.
edit. the nhl network is reporting the bruins might have lindholm signed to an 8-year extension Some time Sunday. If that's the case. I feel a lot better about the trade. Haggs: Boston Bruins Become True Contenders with Lindholm Trade

Their REAL need - as it has been since Harry Sinden/Mike O'Connell loved their top-heavy lines - has been secondary scoring, specifically this season a True #2C to replace Krejci, because Charlie isn't a #2 on a Legit Contender...

AND NOW THEY HAVE NO MORE ****ING ASSETS TO ACQUIRE ANOTHER ****ING FORWARD!!!

They had 2 needs, and this (left defense size) was 1 of them. Reports are that they were in on Giroux until he refused to waive his no-trade, so it's not as if they weren't trying.

That's going one step forward and a half-step backwards... We can't afford to Trade Forwards; we need to Acquire Forwards.

Then why did Sweeney waste his cap space on Forbert?

Yep; I would rather see Trent shoulda been Alex DeBrincat Frederick or Jacqui StudLicker (or other non-prospect Garbage such as Koppanen, Lauko, Curtis Hall, Beecher, Quinn Olson, Trevor Kunt-ar etc) included in a package than somebody who might actually have a Future in the league.

So is your definition of "plenty" one goal per game, combined?

Pasta had three goals. He's on the second line. That's secondary scoring. Any goals from lines other than the number one line is secondary scoring. The perfection line doesn't exist. Watch the games

You know what I mean:

Secondary scoring = Scoring from Anybody Not named Bergeron, Marchand or Pasternak.

No, it doesn't work that way. When I say secondary scoring. That means they are getting goals from lines other than the first. That's the reason pasta was sent to the second line in the first place. That forces other teams to adjust. before teams could just load up on the first line. The team is also getting significant contributions from the third line. i have no idea what games you're watching. And what broadcast you listen to. The strength of the team since jan. Has been secondary scoring.
