Insider Drops SURPRISING Bruins Trade Report...

A very interesting trade target has emerged for the Boston Bruins as new reports swirling surrounding the status of Travis Konecny have linked the Boston Bruins to the Philly board. We're going to be breaking down this fit for the Boston Bruins and with all of the trade reports going on, why this one may not be the best option. Folks, we have a lot to break down here in today's video.

And I'm going to touch on what I mean by that here in just one second. Before we do that, folks, we have a word from the sponsor of this video, Anson Belt and Buckle. You know what ruins a great outfit really fast? An old beat-up belt that doesn't fit right. Most guys are still wearing the belt. Stretched out holes that either pinch your waist or snag. I just throw off your whole look. That's why I'm excited to have Anson Belt and Buckle as the sponsor of today's video. Instead of holes, Anson uses the micro-adjustable track system with quarter-inch increments so your belt fits perfectly every single time. Once you experience that kind of fit and comfort, trust me, you will never want to wear a regular belt again. I've been wearing mine non-stop, and honestly, it's the best I've ever owned. Once you try it, trust me, you'll never go back to old belts.

Another thing to note, he's not exactly the cheapest player, but as we know now as well, not most, not really most expensive in this case either. The cap's gone up significantly, and at the end of the day, an $8.75 million contract may actually be a very good steal for a player like Konecny in two to three years' time so you know weighing all your options, the Bruins are certainly a fit and i mean it's a conversation to be had but the Flyers starting you know oh and nine let's just call it trade talks coming you've got to think that the Flyers are going to make this transition into a lot of their younger players surrounding Quarter Martone and Konecny has been frustrated with the team, the Bruins adding another winger would be an option and we'll look at why this may not be the best though because you know obviously the fit makes sense, assists per game is pretty good, he's not the most not the biggest guy but he's not a player that won't throw the body around, power play points he's gotten on the power play, we've seen him there before but when we're looking at the current lines i think that it's fair to say a few things, i'll pull it up in the bigger screen here as well so You can see the full lineup. Looking at the offense, Frazierman has earned his spot and it's only going to be getting better. Havlizak, there's uncertainty surrounding him, which is not, I guess, the most comfortable spot for the Bruins to be in. But I have confidence that if they want to re-sign him, they can. And if they know they're not going to, they can replace him. But if you're looking at the wings, Morgan Geekie, David Pashok, Murat Husnadinov, J.D. Petarca, Middlestadt and Higgins, Janot and Kastelic. I don't see a world where you're putting Travis Konecny anywhere in the bottom 6, but I don't really see anywhere, maybe apart from Ratnus Natinov moving him down in the lineup, that you can put Konechny in the top 6 here. You can't take out Kiki, you're never taking out Poshnok, you're never taking out Paterka, and who's not to admit, has played very well together, and, you know, making a move like this would, of course, entail trading someone, but I don't see anybody, like I just said on that list, that really would be a benefit in getting rid of, so, although Konechny may be a fit, there's been a lot of players on this team that have earned a fit, earned a place on this team that you just can't get rid of, and you see this here from Connor Ryan this comes from uh you know uh Marco's trip surrounding Fraserman we're gonna lean a lot on he's great to a player he's big part of what we're trying to build here and he's already been a fantastic top six player and he's only been in here for a couple of games but with that with the third line with the second line you really can't break up at least right now what we're looking at what we're seeing drive the success from this team and we know that Konechny has been a center before but he can't play the middle it's just not going to work 37.7% on the draw last season throughout the regular season and only 53 face-offs so he has not been anywhere uh you know close to being a possible center for this Bruins team 30 in the ozone 43.8 in the neutral zone and 57.1 in the defensive zone although they're ready to fit and although you may see him go to an Atlantic team the best thing that we're going to see for Travis Konechny for the Bruins is having him not on this team and you know even looking at this year power play points did get one three assists he has not been what the Flyers want but he's not going to be what the Bruins need right now either so folks give me your thoughts on this because i think the way that we've seen this team structured so far and obviously things will change and even with the cap we know the Bruins have room we know that Travis Konecny's cap space is you know fight is a fair price and it's fine to be able to add that price nowadays to a lineup i think that the best thing the Bruins have going is what they already have maybe a few other changes but Travis Konecny right now at this point in time is not it so give me your thoughts on this down below should they pursue Travis Konecny yes aggressively for a b only if the price drops or c keep the current group i'm kind of i'm kind of in the middle of b and c and give me your thoughts down below here on this one but folks that is all i have here in this video if you did enjoy give it a like hit the sub button as well i'm signing out thank you for watching hope you have a great day see you later
