Like I said, he's always been a favorite of mine but even I critisize him at times.. Hell, same goes for every Bruin player, well Bergy is an exception. .And needless to say, of course that dont make anyone haters BUT we all know there's Bruin fans who hate Rask and want his ass traded out of Boston, never mind the effect it will have on the team. But as far as I know, I'm sure there's no one close to that on this board. Facebook has it's share of Rask Haters.. But you gotta ignore them. Most have no clue what they're talking about anyway. Rask isnt perfect but he's better than most and alot of teams would love to have him.. And considering the 10 million a yr Price is getting, Tuukku is a bargain..

I will take a pass on him. If he only wants a 1 year deal for 3 million a year and only wants to play for the Bruins then I would talk about it. So I guess I'm taking a pass too.

I will take a pass on him. Me too Seabass BUT if it was your decision to pick either Rick Nash or Kovachuk at same contract, who would you pick and you HAVE to pick one of them. I would take a gamble and go with Kovachuk simply cause Nash is so damn injury prone and brings little offence..

So guys, what about Riley Nash. He wasnt much good to Bruins in Playoffs but he was coming off that bad cut above the ear so he should be forgiven for that BUT it will go against him during contract negoatiations.. Going by what he did all season, I hope his ask is reasonable. What about a 3 yr/ 10 million dollar contract avg 3.33 per season. I think it's reasonable but do Nash and his team think the same??

I don't think either of them try really hard now they are older.

too old. (both of us) Forty is the new twenty.. lol I turned 50 in April. Never felt more true to myself and vibrant. Kovi was the name sake for my photography website. My fav player for a long time. Curious if he could keep up with the pace of a tampa Bay or the smack of a guy like Byfuglien.

I think the fact that Vegas has Reeves and Engelland has had a huge impact on Byfuglien. Those two would have no issue with making him accountable and Byfuglien has the added pressure of not parading to the box. The Reeves pick up from Pit was genius. IMHO

IMHO Or stupidity on the part of Pittsburgh. BUT there's one move between Vegas and Colunbus that blows everything else out of the water. How they obtained William Karlsson!! On 21 June 2017, Karlsson was exposed by the Blue Jackets and selected by the Vegas Golden Knights in the 2017 NHL Expansion Draft. The Blue Jackets traded a first-round pick, a second-round pick in 2019, and the contract of injured forward David Clarkson to Vegas with the agreement that the Golden Knights would select Karlsson.
Karlsson went on to have quite a season and I'm sure they'll enjoy the 2019 1st and 2nd round picks. ALL for taking the contract of David Clarkson.. He had 43 goals 35 assists for 78 points. This is a player that the Jackets even gave up a 1st and 2nd rd pick to get rid of!! I have no answers to why Vegas ended up with the players they have, Theodore, Karlsson, Riley Smith, Marchessault. Marchessault went from Jackets to Tampa to Florida to Vegas. From Wiki >>>>> After three seasons within the Lightning organization, Marchessault left as a free agent and signed a two-year, one-way contract{his 1st one way contract} with the Florida Panthers on July 1, 2016.[35] In the 2016–17 season, Marchessault got off to a quick start offensively with the Panthers, and enjoyed a break out season. In becoming one of the best value signings from the previous summer, Marchessault in his first full NHL season led the Panthers with 30 goals in recording 51 points in 75 games. He was the first Panther to reach 30 goals since David Booth in 2009.[36] Vegas Golden Knights[edit] On June 21, 2017, having been exposed by the Panthers, Marchessault was selected by the Vegas Golden Knights in the 2017 NHL Expansion Draft.[36] On January 3, 2018, Marchessault signed a six-year, $30 million extension with the Golden Knights.[37] In becoming one of the best value signings from the previous summer, Panthers STILL left him unprotected. Their 1st 30 goal scorer since Booth in 2009 and they dont protect him.. Fuck sake, none of this or a dozen more similar to it makes zero sense to me.. Riley Smith scores 25 for Panthers and they let him go too!! Make no wonder they're one game from the finals. They had so much handed to them on a silver platter and they'll soon have that Silver Platter!!

What they got for taking Karlsson off Jackets roster in unreal, yet none of you find it out of the ordinary?? Maybe I just dont get it anymore I dunno.
