Wait a second - you guys can post "asinine jerk-0ff" but I can't?

And I also can't get the point across that Brad Marchand is b@nged up(in another thread)?

C'mon BDC Dottie, lighten up.

I'm glad I'm not taking back Vicki Campanella

Good choice if one is not concerned with the Cap next year.  

Rolston is and excellent skater, a third liner, and lastly would have been cheap.  Pandolfo is cooked and done, no thanks.  Old flames (e-harmony forget me NOT) like Sergei Gonchar or Derek Morris are not welcomed back.  A short term relationship with Marc Andre Bergeron would help the PP, nothing else.  Smart looking dream lookers would be Robin Regehr, Mark Striet, and of course Weiss.  You gonna pay to get those despite the UFA status next year.  Although if one could handle one nighters, it would be cheaper than getting married to Ovie or Sweet Lou! 

Wishful thinking, now back to hoping the goalie can save the Bs in the playoffs despite the week powerplay!

The only time you really miss an ex-girlfriend is when the new one doesnt do certain things as well in the sack.

In response to Not-A-Shot's comment:

When it's over, it's over.  There is always a reason it's over.  Later, you think about her and you remember a lot of good things, but tend to gloss over the bad things.  And then you get back together with her.  And all of the things that caused the initial breakup return.  And it's a mess.  And you break up again.

Please keep this in mind when suggesting:

Miro Satan
Mark Recchi
Brian Rolston
Michael Ryder
Any other player that used to play in Boston but no longer does.

Good one Costanza. The point your making is solid, but your delivery is weak.  Stick to your hi management dream, because u have no chance at making it as a writer. Even tho u tried to pass your self off as one.

I think u mean one of the times..... a slip up like that can cause u to be attacked by the predators on this site.

The line is okay.  I watched the Habs vs. Leafs last night.  The Habs have Prust playing with two rookies.  That's bad news.  The B's have good third line players on the third line.  Yeah, they've started slowly.  Know who else has?  A lot of players! 

Last year they lost to the Caps in the first round.  Where was your awesome third line then?  Oh, that's right, turning the puck over so Joel Ward could kill the season.

In response to shuperman's comment:

I busted out laughing and ended up telling the tale of big bad Tim Brent to the table.

Girlfriends, Dogs, Jurk ophs.... nice thread

anywho, although the B's have started out well, there are two issues that will hold them back.

Anybody remember last season? Well we've gone backwards since Pouliot, and he wasn't good enough. That is the two issues in one. 3rd line sukz, and the PP sukz even worse. These are roster issues that need to be adddressed.

The Bruins had some pretty bad games in 2010-2011, and a lousy PP.  Do you remember June 15, 2011?

Sometimes you just have to ride it out and stick to your plan.  They are 7-1-1 after all you know.

This was a really good comparison as far as posters and their trade thoughts. They don't know what else is out there so they desire back what's familiar to them. 

Ex-Girlfriends .............nailed it .

And for those who take offense with me for agreeing with that, you can now go all nutty on me too. You have my permission.

In response to Not-A-Shot's comment:

Sighhhh! OK I give up. I don't know how many times I said that I'm not talking about bringing someone in now. But, you need 3 lines going to win a cup. The 3rd line isn't going. And if they're not going at the deadline I hope PC does something to fix it. Weiss & Ryder are the top 2 I hope he brings in. Yes Weiss is a 1st line, or 2nd liner on a lot of teams, but it would depend on the team he's on wouldn't it. Ryder is on the 2nd line in Dallas. He wasn't here, so doesn't mean Weiss can't play on the 3rd here. Whether P.C can pull it off & get one of them is another story, but one of those 2 are my choices. Don't like them? Blow it out your as s !

Ha.  I typed out the Latin for "with highest honours" on another thread...BDC had no problem with summa or laude, but Latin for "with" was banned.

uhmm that worked, BDC does not ban political views

In response to NeelyOrrBourque's comment:

Here - the Bruins should go get Jonathan Toews.  I know it would be tough and the Blackhawks are a top team right now, but they need goaltending and if the Bruins could package Khudobin and picks and prospects to get him, they should do it.

Have at it.

In response to Bookboy007's comment:

I got one even better. Calgary needs a goaltender, no ? ...... guess who the Bruins could get there ? Books my e-harmony trade is a bit more realistic .

Also, if the Bruins' issues are the third line and the PP, Ryder's record on the Bruin PP isn't much better than anyone else's.  And who's spot's he taking?  Horton?  Seguin?  Bergeron?  Marchand?  I'd rather any of those four, and he's not going to be the net-front guy and replace Lucic.  The third line is brutal right now, but Kelly and Peverley are a pretty solid anchor for that line.  If that line is failing, it's not because of Chris Bourque as much as it is those two.  They're the ones paid to make it run.  If you want to fix that line, maybe the answer isn't trying what's old is new again.  Maybe it's breaking that duo up.  And maybe that means making a deal that involves one of them going the other way for a different kind of player for that line.

One last thought - red, Stuart drove me nuts because he's a terribly inaccurate passer.  Maybe he's better with Winnipeg now?  But his inability to make good passes to break out of the zone - and preference to bang it off the boards at times - often seemed like the biggest reason the Bruins would get hemmed in and lose momentum or, more importantly, why they couldn't transition well and get the offense going.

Well thats just it, Red wants Stuart out of Winnipeg and is trying to be sly about it.

Although I do agree with a certain element of your premise... throwing silly names out there is just as useless as re-reading endless quotes in each new post, but come on man..do YOU know who is REALLY available for trade discussions? Its ALL speculation. A monkey can look at a list of players whose contract is up at the end of the season and choose a name. I dont mind condescension, but at least have something...

If you don't like trade talk threads, don't read them. Let anyone who enjoys trade talk have at it. They can be laughed at for their trade ideas, but no reason to get all pissy just because it's fun to imagine other guys in black & gold and what it would take to get them.
