Fuck thats a retarded trade for Bos. Spooner has 3 less pts than Nash in 21 less games. I think you'll see Nash bounce back a bit. Rags have been a dumpster fire for awhile now. Getting a fresh atmosphere on a winning team with a lot of energy will boost his play.

Boston is in a good spot. All their core is locked up for the next 3-4 seasons if not longer. Chara is a UFA at season's end and if he comes back it will be for a discount. They have no important RFAs to sign either.
Adding Nash and Gionta gives them veteran depth that's all.

It gives them slow useless players that will interfere with the good stuff they already have going on.
Boston was in no way hurting for "veteran leadership" prior to these moves.

Brandon Bollig traded to Nashville from San Jose for a sixth.
Am I the only one who thought he was out of hockey?

Nope. I was surprised when I saw his name pop up to.

Surprised this board hasn't erupted already.
Columbus was asking about Anisimov, would give up a 3rd, but wanted Hawks to retain half salary. Hawks declined.

I would have done that in a heartbeat. Hawks aren't gonna get better via other teams picks/prospects but their own.
Tankathon....2018, 2019, and 2020 editions.

Stan sees him as a real piece. The offer would have to blow the doors off our wile.e. GM and that won't happen...it's anisimov. He's not as good as Stan thinks he is, and that's the problem.

I'm guessing the real issue was retaining half-salary. Stan thinks he can make quick fixes for next season, and retaining salary would prevent the big moves he has planned this summer. I'm not trying to be snarky, I think this is for real.
