Coaching taller players is actually a task. From hitting to knee bend the only tougher player is a goalie. Junior year would be the expectation. Timeline could be more like a defenseman. Great pick!!! And hockey east has the coaching.

As a BC fan and a bruins fan it’ll be fun to watch dean and see him grow hopefully

B’s had a much better draft than I expected. Go B’s!

My favorite Bruins show....

Hopefully anyone we get can win a face off. Can’t wait to see Letourneau on the ice. 6’7” 215 lbs, hell yeah. He’s 18, going to dare I say as a UMaine guy, the best hockey college in the world at BC. He should only get better. Build back bigger. Now the real question we want to know is who’s going to replace Jack Edwards.

Low Quality draft recap. Love it.

I think Letourneau is going to be special for the Bruins.

Let’s go B’s 💛🖤 they had a good draft I think

😎 I'm as calm as a cucumber. Shooting out positive waves man ✌️

Dean is an athlete who plays hockey. His entire family is athletic. He'll have all the resources that an 18-year-old hockey player could hope for in Boston...College and Bruins and fans. Ya gotta take a chance and draft talent like this early. (The Bruins took him in the 1st because they would not have gotten him after that.) The Bruins went for it. I like it.

Not the Laukomotiv!!! I will stand with saying he's built for playoffs & would be a great bottom 6 for any team that makes it. But I totally get the trade. Gonna be watching these drafted guys _with great interest_

Everybody needs to simmer down and remember that this team is our team, and the offseason is the offseason. Players get moved. Trades are made. Oh yeah, and by professional front office executives who have been thinking about this way harder than we have and for way longer. Remember not so long ago, we lost 2 of the best centers to ever play the game...and made it to the second round. This team is our team. And each year we get to get excited about new things. Can't wait for the season to start. GO BSSSSS!!

This is an awesome recap, Thanks!

Breaking: Bruins trade all 1st round picks through 2045 to the California Seals for their 13,767th pick in the 2089 season and 3rd line phenom Billy ‘Bilbo’ Bunderson. Bunderson has debatable skating skills and has never won a face off but is a grinder. His diminutive 5’2”, 109lb. frame will need to be bulked up.

Sunshine, Rainbows, and Unicorns nailed it. Lauko not bad trade. We have so many bottom six options. Good pick. Commentary spot on. Can't wait for your full Free Agency Trade Preview. Soldberg was not a Sweeny issue, but I wish we could have grabbed him. How far did Greentree fall?

He was ranked 13-18 in the few pre draft ranking lists I seen. Young captain on a really bad OHL team. Good size at 6'2" but a winger, had 25 to 30 points more than the next guy on his team. He would of been a good pick but Dean Letouneau is not horrible but realistically needs 2 years of college. Personally he reminds me of Joe Colbourne

Geekie Poitras Jones 3rd line would be a good combo. Lots of Dog fight on 4th beecher needs to bring it. Brazue will be in fight with Jones. Competition back in Beantown.

It’ll be fun to follow along with BC this year to see how he’s doing.

Not sure i heard you right at the end there, did you say he was "small" and "docile"?

I think we should have traded Frederic or Geekie to get in to the 2nd. Lots of good players like Cole Hutson and Nikita Artamonov we missed out on due to not having a pick. Also annoyed we didn’t take some guys who profiled really good analytically that were available in the later rounds. Overall I think we did ok tho.

I would have been fine with more than 1 bottom six going. Freddy wants to get paid and u am not sure he is worth top 6 money.

Lauko miss ya buddy, but it's a business and giving Merk or others a try... just not brown or megna... sign Boquist please...

LETS GO BSSSSSS

Was hoping the Ullmark trade would make our team better for next year...

We have the Celtics to enjoy during the rebuild.. as much as I’d prefer it to be bruins at least Boston isn’t a losing city 100%.. we always have something cooking.. give it time.. before we know it the Bs will be back in contention 👌 that 6’7” forward learns a thing or two and he can just bully his way to the front of the net and clean up rebounds we have a brighter future than it seems on paper.

Damn. Was really hoping Bs would draft Ritchie, him and Geekie would have made an elite first line combo. Would only need to pick up Foligno to create the new perfection line.

Just a hunch, anyone out there that may be crying about Lauko, it may be more of the fact that big trades happened around the league and we were told Sweeney was going to be aggressive. He certainly hasn't been with trades so that leaves free agency where he'll probably be more assertive than aggressive. Safe and predictable.

Dean Letourneau physicality: man, he is playing with children, he certainly not sending them to the hospital !!! all those children have expectations to become an hockey players one day, he just cannot end their career !!

Let's be fair I called it Zaradov and Lindholm...... And everyone is commenting that Greentree, Sodberg, and Hemming were steals on the draft. But let's hope Dean develops. 1 million left in cap space. We are still short a Winger for the TOP 6. Really we are missing two true top 6 Guys and Vancouver picking up Debrusk means we need someone with a motor. I would give FREDDY the best chance to make top six. He plays well with Coyle at least.

Where are you? we need to hear from you on Boston's big trades Big Z#2 and Lindholm #2....what a bout Jones and the other guys....2 things I need your commentary and Steve dangle weeping....

If you have a person 6’7 215 and have the skills but is a little slow. That’s mostly because of his size. Against someone who is 6’0 165 who can fly and can get knocked around in the boards. I just hope it doesn’t take “years” for him to develop.

bigyler and physicalyer! GO BBBBBEEEEEEEEE33333³E3333SSSS

Honestly a good trade for Linus. He gets to be the number one goalie on a team.

Getting a weird feeling that fa is gonna come around and sweeney won’t do a whole lot maybe one 2nd/3rd line winger could be a Center but nobody better down the middle than zacha.

Jonathan morello might be interesting… like skill of Charlie Coyle ( average) but higher speed.. maybe see this in 4 or 5 years. Also.. that picture of leterneau at draft ( profileSide shot) if he had a mullet he almost could look like a young jagr.. if he could harness part of that…

It may be my bipolar acting up, but I am fucking blissful right now when I look at what will be happening in this team in the next couple years. These very young and highly skilled forwards, of which one is massive, and the other (Poitras) that will be the new and improved version of Sergei Samsonov. I had a difficult time to explain my opinion here, so I apologize for a fragmented paragraph. I agree with 100% of what you said here. This team is going to be a fucking force to be reckoned with. Sweeney is CLEARLY well aware of what the holes in this team are, and he's already filling all of these holes and it has only been a week since the season ended. The average age of this team has dropped substantially in the past year. I'm really excited for next year. Imagine the feeling for an 18 year old center at the latter 1/4 of the field, and as you slowly start to doubt yourself of getting drafted, then suddenly the Bruins pick you to play center for a team that has no legit first or second line center... like.... ''Hey... welcome to the Bruins. By the way, we want to mold you into the next Patrice Bergeron, David Pastrnak to your left and Brad Marchand to your right. And by the way, the second line will also have another rookie the same age as you, and we want our offense to dominate the league for the next 15 years... backed by the possibly legendary Jeremy Swayman. He'll save every puck they throw at him, pretty much, so then 6 of you can focus on offense and annihilate the other team's goalies.'' From what I've seen over the years, the Boston Bruins are in the top 3 choices for every player in the NHL. Who the fuck would not want to come here and play for a bunch of crazy fuckers from the entirety of New England cheering for them.

I think the plan was Iginla. This would’ve been a quicker return. Not getting him means the plan has to be more long term. This year is a bridge year unless they land a free agent of note, and Boston doesn’t feel this FA class is that good.

Hemming went to Stars 29th Greentree 26th Soldberg 24th All went in first round.

Would of loved to traded Lauko and a pick for Holtz

I have no confidence Sweeney is capable of making a decent 1st round selection, let alone a 4th rounder. Even though I liked Lauko, I won't get bent out of shape over losing a 4th liner, I thought this trade stunk. Not as bad as taking Korpisalo's contract back in the Ullmark deal, but still pretty bad. So far, IMO, Sweeney is 0 for 2 in the dealing department. Come Monday, if he pays Elias Lindholm over 8M per season, he will be 0 for 3.

Am I the only one that is dying to get Bertuzzi back to Boston, where he belongs???! Pay him what he wants. If he wants 6 million, pay him 6 million. Don't leave him behind again for a million or two. He was born to wear the spoked B. Every time he was on the ice in a Bruins jersey, he was smiling. Every time I saw him in a Leaf's jersey, he was either pissed off, sad, frustrated, depressed. He looked like he was about to cry so many times.

The Ullmark trade was bad now that we know all the details. And I was a guy that was in full support of trading Ullmark. I think the Lauko trade reaction is more a response to overall bad GM’ing being done by Sweeney pretty consistently. They trade their 1st rounders every year for guys that make little to no difference in the playoffs and that we never end up retaining in the offseason. Then we feel the need to recover a 1st rounder before the draft and we trade a great goalie for a terrible goalie and we have pay him almost the same amount of money. If I was this bad a my job I would be fired.

Where's the content for the new Big Z. Lindholm

At the end of the day Sweeney has drafted (outside of Mcavoy, 4th liners or busts) so its really a crap shoot of what he picks. This kid has a lot of time but we shall see, Sweeney might not be around if this kid pans out

Wait is the 6th rounder big and physical though? lmao way to close it out

BIG, and physical is how I like my women!

The reason why I’m calm is cause I have zero enthusiasm for this team and I have no trust in the higher ups. I really hope I’m proven wrong but everything around the Bruins feels so negative and off.

You guys will end up with Lindholm and Stamkos and not give a 💩about any of these draft picks

Nah totally taking greentree the guys gonna be a baller. That’s one we will look at in 5 years and be like F***!! As for Sweeney, JM said it all when the camera was on him, rolling his eyes and saying FFS before doing a massive yawn. Sweeney is treading water right now you’re right off season has a while to go but he’s made poor decisions so far.

I'm not freaking out like some people, but we are now worse than we were last year. I can't help but be upset watching a team like vegas add every good player, while Sweeney can't do anything except dump a vezina goalie for crap players and a low draft pick that didn't even wind up getting the player they wanted.
