I have seen two tweets from some pretty iffy sources... IT MUST BE HAPPENING

[tonyd3b54]

because i always forget the cutoffs, here's a handy chart, courtesy of mynhltraderumors.com

If a team signs a RFA to an offer sheet, and his 2011-12 team doesn’t match, they are awarded draft pick compensation depending on the amount they sign for. RFAs that have filed for salary arbitration can’t be signed to offer sheets.

$1,110,249 or below None
Over $1,110,249 to $1,682,194 3rd round pick.
Over $1,682,194 to $3,364,391 2nd round pick.

Very quiet on Horton. Last I heard, he was going to start working out at his normal level but it's been disturbingly quiet. You'd think if there was GOOD need they'd be shouting it from mountaintops.

While I like the uptick in twitter chatter about Krejci for Ryan, my hopes aren't up.

The grass isn't always greener. Adding Ryan at the price of Krejci doesn't make us better. We don't even know if Seguin can play center at the NHL level. Not worth the risk

RNH
Duchene

Seguin is just as skilled, no reason to think he can't

Only reason he hasn't is because of our depth at center and our lack of wingers. If its a straight trade I would take a long look. Seguin has to move to center eventually he is a waste on the wing

If the Bruins wanted him at center, they would have put him there when Krejci and Savard missed time before they got Kelly.

They did play him at center briefly due to injury and he said he liked playing center better.

When his first year? CJ barely played him, he wouldn't trust him at center then.

Also bergs started on the wing then moved to center

I'm pretty sure you understand players need to mature and learn the system, especially with CJ as coach

[BoSox47]

Seguin played center when bergy went down against tampa in the playoffs


hahaha one game doesn't mean anything but still the truth. He is a center converted winger.
