Phil Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Quote After the 2019-20 season, Torey Krug’s contract was expiring. Bruins general manager Don Sweeney did not stand in the way of the defenseman’s exit to St. Louis. A year later, David Krejci’s deal was up. Upon season’s end, Krejci considered relocating his family to Czechia. Sweeney did not make it worth the center’s while to change his mind. In both cases, David Pastrnak was watching. “88 had seen how Don has treated his two best friends,” a source close to Pastrnak wrote The Athletic in a text. “No chance he comes back with Sweens as GM.” Quote The Bruins have an advantage over the 31 other teams of being able to offer Pastrnak an eight-year max-term extension. One agent believed an eight-year, $68 million deal would be fair for both parties. Whether Pastrnak agrees with that thinking remains to be seen. On July 1, 2019, Artemi Panarin signed a seven-year, $81.5 million contract with the Rangers. Panarin was 27 years old. He had scored 320 points in 322 games. Next summer, Pastrnak will be 27. He has 504 points in 510 games. Pastrnak led the Bruins with 40 goals in 2021-22. https://theathletic.com/3353715/2022/06/07/david-pastrnak-trade-bruins-rebuild/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlairBettsBlocksEverything Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 even one year of Pasta on that contract is worth going hard for. Not that I think they would trade him to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sod16 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Essentially would have to trade Miller to do it. We already are structured too much like Leafs South. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siddious Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 i didn’t read the entire article but I don’t see how Krug wanting to get paid and krejci being old and wanted to leave has anything to do with Sweeney doing a good or bad job but Ok. on a side note when did we start calling the Czech Republic “Czechia”? I didn’t get the memo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t get the memo. They didn't even make Krug an offer, and Krejci was 34 when he left...off a 44pt in 51 game season. He had plenty left in the tank and the word is he would have rather went home than play for Cassidy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did not realize he was 34 for some reason I thought he was older and wanted to go home- at least I remember reading something along those lines.

Words coming out now that he did not get along with Cassidy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Krejci is 36 and would have been on a 35+ contract, which Boston didn’t want for multiple seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon you'd want Panarin and Pasta playing together. One of the best passers in the league setting up one of the best goal scorers in the league? Sign me up.
