IMO, the depth chart looks kinda like this at the moment: Dahlin Power Samuelsson Clifton Jokiharju Lyubushkin Johnson Stillman Bryson That’s a full group. One of Stillman / Bryson getting traded or waived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 Anything that moves Bryson further down the depth chart is okay in my book. 5 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slack_in_MA Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 I like it. I watch a lot of Bruins games where I live and he’s a good player with some grit to his game. 4 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo I’m hoping we are keeping them for a G trade At the very least, RHD doesn't add up right now.. and we had the excess of LHD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d imagine Bryson is gone and I picked Jokiharju for durability reasons over Bush but that’s anecdotal and could be wrong Looks to me like a modestly improved unit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norcal Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 I love the signing. Prime age for a D. Developed in a good defensive system that teaches aggressive physical defending. Hits and plays with physicality. Big improvement on the ice first shift. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, the depth chart looks kinda like this at the moment: Dahlin Power Samuelsson Clifton Jokiharju Lyubushkin E Johnson Stillman Bryson R Johnson That’s probably too many D on NHL contracts. Yeah... I don't get it... 2 defensemen means we have to move a holdover. Joki is probably best value moving forward.... Bryson and Stillman are not going to get a return. The kids in Rochester will be pushing in the next 2 years. So do we move Joki, Olofsson for a goalie?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His average TOI was a shade under 18 min last year and 16:03 the year before so not sure it’s top 4 minutes he was getting. 2 minutes ago, dudacek said: And he’s physical.

I think Henri gets traded, but there’s no way he’s sitting for Stillman and he shouldn’t be sitting for Johnson unless Johnson has more left than I think.
