what?!?!

thats a lot for an unproven goalie... i have to be honest, i actually have liked what BOS is doing, they are going into full rebuild mode, not slowly but quickly, they are trading all the valuable assets they have. I wouldnt be surprised if Chara was moved at some point as well. great deadline day pick up for someone.

the answer is that a number of teams were willing to give him two years, including Detroit and the Rangers really wanted him

overall, the Bruins ended up getting quite a haul for Lucic. But, paying part of his salary this year is still kind of a joke when they are strapped

Side note: Writing "NYR prospect" and "Robin Kovacs" alongside one another still makes me giddy.

I am curious if he is so loved why did he fall to the 3rd? Injuries? Performance? Cocaine?

Kovacs was deemed most underrated player in the 2015 draft. I'm actually pretty excited for this kid. He's only 18 and led AIK in scoring. Kid is also said to be feisty and agitating and then will burn you with his quickness and skill. He also has very good patience and timing with his passing. He definitely needs to bulk up in order to succeed in the NHL but he's also only 18, size will come naturally. I'm thinking he's a kind of a Zuccarello feisty mixed with a Brassard like scoring skill set. Could be the late round gem of this draft that Gorton seems to find each year. We should get this kid over to NA hockey asap to develop.

midterm he was the 17th ranked European skater of the draft, moved up to 8th in final rankings.

Seems more people excited for him than Gropp

Gropp was Barzal's teammate. He became Seattle's go-to offensive player when Barzal went down to injury.
