[Portzline] Les Blue Jackets croyaient fermement qu’ils avaient une entente en place avec Boston depuis plus d’une semaine qui aurait envoyé le défenseur Vladislav Gavrikov aux Bruins. Les Jackets voulaient renverser le premier tour de Boston pour Chychrun, mais Boston a demandé à plusieurs reprises plus de temps.

The Summer of Jarmo is starting off quite chilly.
Another example of Boston running circles around us
Edit: downvote this all you want but we would all kill to have half the playoff success as Boston
I don’t need additional reasons to think the Boston Bruins are a piece of shit organization
Bruh were we actually going to get Chychrun…..
This has got to be incredibly frustrating for Jarmo
ugh we’re getting clowned in the comments over there
I hope jarmo never does business with that clown gm ever again
God the people on r/hockey are insufferable
Maybe I’m in the minority here but I don’t think this is all as shady as we’re making it out to be. The original report was Gavrikov for a 1st and a 3rd but Boston needed to move Craig Smith in order to make the salary worked. In moving Craig Smith, they were offered a solid defenseman and depth forward. I can’t say I blame them. If the shoe was on the other foot we would all say it was a fleece by Jarmo.
If this turn of events were set in stone, maybe it’s not the worst thing in the world that we got the rug pulled out from under us. Say this deal goes through and we do end up getting Chychrun. If Jarmo doesn’t then flip him for more assets, does the addition of Chychrun screw up the tank this year? Say we finish 3rd or 4th to last this year and lose out on both lottery picks, in hindsight, is it worth trying to force a trade for a defenseman that doesn’t fit our rebuild timeline?
