Brazeau has completely won me over. Aside from his terrible skating first step which is snail like, he has incredible hockey IQ. And great hands. But what I love the most is his play away from the puck. And his defensive play and positioning. He is so responsible and outright brilliant in his positioning. And he is strong on the puck. When he gets it he protects it extremely well. And his vision. He passes like Gretzky from behind the net.😂😂😂 He is huge. And will use it to check. But not ornery. Seems even keeled all the time. And hardly ever takes a penalty. He is a perfect affordable top 9 forward that will be one of those that are even better in playoffs. Like a Bryan Bickell. I would sign him ASAP to a 4 year $2-3 million per deal.
Feel like we are watching different players. In the defensive end he looks lost, he's consistently chasing the play and with his lack of skating it becomes a problem. He's great when someone can feed him pucks but he struggles to consistently get to pucks and make plays on his own. Ideal as a 4th liner with some pp time but anything more is exposing him.
Why let go of beecher? He can score, he can skate, he hits and he wins face offs. I can see maybe, since kastelic is locked up but he's a solid 4th liner
The Bruins need to trade Coyle and put Brazeau back on the second line to get Marchand scoring again. Go back to the beginning of the season when Coyle was on center with Marchand had 2 or 3 goals. Then Marchand was on a line with Lindholm and Brazeau, and WOW Marchand started to put the puck in the net on a consistent basis. But then someone got the great idea to swap out Brazeau for Coyle on the second line, and it all went to crap. Why would you break up something that was working. Maybe it is not Coyle's fault. The gave a 16 goal scorer the salary of a 30 goal scorer and somehow expect him to play to his value. The real change that needs to be made is at the GM position.
If a team is offering something for brazeau you absolutely do it. He's only good within 10 feet of his own net. The other 190 feet he is atrocious and I would argue is one of the reasons others are struggling.
The plan was to get bigger and faster...DS/CN.. Two free angent sent to farm, and now trade our only two other power forwards??? Time to replace management. Freddy and Braz need need to stay. Maybe not changing line mates every second game would help. Media is trying to create problems between Pasta and Marchy.. I hope the media is happy running Jake out of town for abosolutely nothing... Go Bruins
Brazeau is a keeper!! Trade Sweeney. We'll take a case of beer for him. Been useless for years. I would trade Coyle, Carlo, Wotherspoon, Zacha, Marchy and if he doesn't wake up McAvoy! Swayman has finally started to show some promise in last few games. Monty wasn't the problem. Sweeney is the problem.
I don’t trust Sweeney to do any trades he traded away every no.1 draft choice we’ve had over the past three years throw in a couple of 2nds while you're at it. Justin has been a bit of a surprise but if we can get Pettersson for Justin, Zacha and Lysell and Swayman for Demko & do it.
Just NO.....Keep the young guys who are performing and ditch the dead weight....oh???? Nobody wants the dead weight??? Therein lies the issue, signing players that don't perform. DO NOT trade the future for a shot at a playoff run.....that is going to end badly anyway.
No way! Keep him!! He’s playing well keeping us in the game a lot of the time …can’t see it
They have to sell at the deadline to get future assets. It makes perfect sense
NO WAY ON BRAZEAU!
Brazeau is an ideal 3rd liner and I don't see him playing on the top 2 lines....he just doesn't seem to try and go after it!
The Bs should keep Brazeau. He is just developing his game in the NHL. He looks like he could really be a solid 2nd line forward.
Sweeney's job security is questionable at best currently
I think this is more Neely’s team than Sweeney’s

Too long. 🥱
Go get a real return for Lindholm. Not the center we needed in hind-sight. I do like Bo Horvat..
Brazeau needs to stay on the Bruins I think it's time to move on from Coyle and Freddy and Beecher
Why let go of beecher? He can score, he can skate, he hits and he wins face offs. I can see maybe, since kastelic is locked up but he's a solid 4th liner
95 games
9 goals
9 assist
18 points
-6 plus minus
Are you Don Sweeney?
Another bust of a draft pick
Beecher is terrible
Got to keep Justin
I'd be surprised is ole Don is let go. Braz contributes size and plays aggressive. May lack speed but still can mix things up.
I love Brazeau

I’m pretty sure coyle has a NTC or a NMC
Trade everyone without term that you aren't going to resign
Keep him. Sign him.
I’d trade anyone minus pasta and the rat
Braz is to slow. We need to move some blue collar guys if we’re gonna make room for youth.
If a team is offering something for brazeau you absolutely do it. He's only good within 10 feet of his own net. The other 190 feet he is atrocious and I would argue is one of the reasons others are struggling.
If the price is right there’s only a couple of guys I would not trade
Justin should not be traded. His potential is too great. Don't be the Maple Laffs!
Gotta keep Brazeau. Bad move trading him

Outhouse win a bag roll zigzag
Keep Brazeau…trade Sweeney for a new Zamboni. We’d be getting the better end of that deal.
Fredrick sin Montreal Molson
6 teams that trade players EX port puck jj 😜
Justin Brazeau re-sign. 3 yrs, $7M. He’s a must.
bleh
Stop saying “ SHOCKING “ ..
What’s wrong with you dude ?
Just NO.....Keep the young guys who are performing and ditch the dead weight....oh???? Nobody wants the dead weight??? Therein lies the issue, signing players that don't perform. DO NOT trade the future for a shot at a playoff run.....that is going to end badly anyway.
What does Sweeney think by trading. Braz is going to save his job. He is out of his mind. Your gone donny should have been 3 yes ago
Original six hockey jjj
Pill payment
Brazeau is a slug, get rid of him
Trade him he's huge and plays soft
Definitely I like kee0ing him. Perhaps we can get something big but ld prefer trading someone else. Never hurts to hear offers
Trade Fredric, keep Coyle. Trade Marchand
