Butch Coach of the Year 👏 That’s awesome, I didn’t think they’d give it to him but he was very deserving.

I usually say there’s always one GM out there ready to make that dumb mistake but I got to agree, this year is going to be different, nobody is going to be spending crazy during free agency.

The #NHLBruins have bonus carryover overage of $1.94M due to these bonuses earned:
-Debrusk $394K: A Bonus TOI & pro-rated 20G -Chara $1.5M: 10GP & playoffs -Lauzon $25K GP -Clifton $20K GP
This tweet followed the first one above
I would venture to guess that potential bonuses to Zboril ($637,500), Senyshyn ($450,000), Frederic ($212,500) and Vaakanainen ($300,000) are reasons we didn't see much of them this season.

Yea, we all wanted to see Frederic over Ritchie but stuff like this, rookie bonuses, we tend to overlook but MM I think you nailed it..that 2 million $$$ carry over is gonna hurt considering Bruins are always around the maxed out salary cap..

The one that really bugs Me is Chara’s Is it possible Chara still feels that he’s indispensable? I get what he’s done for the Bruins, his number will be in the rafters, he’ll be a HOFer but his value as a player for the Bruins next year is not indispensable. I don’t think a GM or president can afford to be sentimental, at most Z should have a very reduced role and transfer the C to Bergeron. Alternatively we could choose not to sign him at all. I’d hate to see him play for a different team next season but management has to move forward and do some retooling of this team.

Well said I believe a lot of what you stated to be true, I think management are intimidated by him as well as the coaching staff . He has earned a ton of respect over the Years and rightfully so he will down as one of the biggest Free agent signing period .. Moving forward though he must be willing to take a haircut for the teams sake , and he full well knows if he leaves to play else where it would it be a shit storm ..

Kind of like the FO is caught between a rock and a hard place on this one. Agree with the intimidation aspect involved. I’ve never heard of having a reduced role for your 44 year old Captain because of his diminished speed and skills. Sad part is that they have 2 pedigree 1st round picks with all the tools needed who don’t get the opportunity because he keeps playing on cheap contracts. Can’t put Bergy in that no win situation. He would decline. Time for change.

The one that really bugs Me is Chara’s Yea that one not only bugs me but seems pretty silly IF he got a raise of 1.5 million extra just for playing 10 games and the playoffs..Just as well if the 1.5 was part of his contract considering it was almost guarenteed he would play 10 games and Bruins making playoffs..Only difference is: The strain of the 1.5 million is on this season instead of last.

Fforr I find it confusing reading the above article..It first says ""Just like Jakub Lauko not too long ago, defenseman prospect Jakub Zboril has been placed on-loan to his hometown Extraliga club of HC Kometa Brno for the upcoming 2020-21 season."" Then there's a twitter saying ""The Boston Bruins have loaned defenceman Jakub Zbořil 🇨🇿 to HC Kometa Brno 🇨🇿 (ELH) until the start of NHL Training Camp.""I'm actually more concerned over Lauko than I am Zboril.. Now unless the twitter means 2021-22 Training camp..SO is he gone for a full season or just until training camp opens in Dec or whenever it starts up again..Personally I cant see the Nhl or any other league running a complete season or anything remotely close to it until fans can return to the games..

I don’t like Stone or PacioCrappy, very happy they’re done. It’d be great for the Isles to get past TBay as well but that’s a big ask. Go Isles!
