Welcome to Thursday! The weekend is in sight. Kind of.
GM Don Sweeney met the media yesterday, and his comments were about what you’d expect: happy to have Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci back, happy to have Pavel Zacha under contract, etc.
Sweeney also referenced the gymnastics the team will have to do at some point to get cap compliant, mentioning the possibility of getting that done through trades or through waivers, so it’ll be interesting to see how that shakes out.
They can, of course, LTIR some players and deal with the trades later. However, you can’t help but wonder if other teams will stick it to the B’s in, say, late October when they know they have to trade someone to get a player off LTIR.
