    Hextall is a GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!!

    got rid of Pronger's contract and Grossman and actually got a productive player back. amazing.
    Hextall got rid of prongers contract? No shit?
    Yes he did. After he buy out Ganger we should have close to 8 million in cap room.
    How did he get rid of the contract?
    Traded it to Phoenix to help them reach the cap floor.
    Wow, if that's not shady shit then I don't know what is. The guy works for the league and yet the yotes are paying his salary hahaha. Unreal

    Hextall is making miracles..and LOL at what the Bruins have done thus far this off season. Idk if theyre trying to tank,but it sure seems that way.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Sam Gagner will stay with team...why not give him the chance to play well on a one year contract...if not, trade him.
    Ryan White also re-signed...I like it.
    Still need a backup goalie.
    I think something will happen with LeCavalier too.

    so the question is. who is our d men coming up this year. do any prospects make the team and which ones.

    I still can't believe that hextall was able to get rid of Grossman.

    just when I think Hextall is a genius he gives an 8-year deal to Vorachek and even dumber a 6-year deal to Coutourier. aren't the lenght of the contracts what got this franchise in cap trouble before. just fn stupid to give that many years.

    season starts tonight. Not much of a difference in team from last year but excited as well. I think Hakstol is going to be good for this team. I hated Berube. Giroux has to get off to a good start.

    Not much difference in the team, I agree. Which is why I can't see them missing the playoffs again as the experts are predicting. I don't see them in the top half of the east, but should make the playoffs. Mason is too good and team chemistry should be better.

    I think they challenge for the 8th spot at best.
    Too much dead weight salaries on this team and the D is suspect.
    Beyond the top 2 lines, there is no scoring depth.
    Top 10 pick againthis summer.
    Cannot wait for some of these contracts to go or hopefully Hextall pulls more magic to lose some of these stiffs via trade.

    0-2 on penalty shots = would have lost a shootout (again)

    only saw the end and the overtime. 3 on 3 is hokey. going to be a lot of 2 on 1s and breakaways. teams are going to win all the time in overtime now. I don't like the fact that a hokey 3-on-3 win in overtime gets you the same amount of points as a dominating regulation time win. i'd rather see regulations wins count 3 points. reward a team for winning in regulation.
