bruins sign simon zajicek

ngl i'm with you on raymond, dude but zajicek's gotta bring something too, cant have another depth guy for the sake of depth imo

yeah i guess but whats zajiceks upside? man we still gotta figure out that 3rd line center situation

I think the upside of Zajicek might be a bit overstated, Bruins19 brought up that his defensive game is still a work in progress. We need someone who can provide some scoring punch on that 3rd line and I'm not convinced he's the answer yet @Bruins19

yeah his d game is still a work in progress but so's everybodys, cant just pick apart one guy imo @RedWingRusty

@BruinsEnjoyer i think were missing the point tho - we dont have cap space to throw around for some superstar so zajicek might be a decent fit imo @Bruins19 yeah hes still got upside even if his d game is a work in progress

ngl the cap situation is a real thing and we need guys like zajicek who dont break the bank, but still gotta get that 3rd line center right man

ngl i got no beef with zajicek but thats why we shouldve pursued someone like celebuni at a cheaper price @BruinsEnjoyer man dont know if hes the answer to our 3rd line issues

im just sayin if we're worried about his d game then maybe we should be worrying more about ours imo @Bruins19

man dont know if hes the answer to our 3rd line issues honestly still think we need a proven guy there though

tbh i see your point @Bruins19, still dont think we're addressing our real needs here man. celebuni was a pipe dream anyway, thats not how the market works imo

I see your point about addressing our real needs, but I think we're overthinking this move a bit - Zajicek's upside on offense could be worth exploring in training camp, no?

ngl danM88's got a point about upside tho, but we just signed him for 2 mil guaranteed man thats a big contract to bet on potential alone imo

ngl danM88's right too tho, 2 mil for potential alone is a pretty big risk imo...but we all know how bruins brass loves taking those kinds of chances @BruinsEnjoyer

yeah i know we all love to hate on bruins brass ngl theyve made some questionable moves but this one feels like a major overpay for 2 mil guaranteed man @BruinsEnjoyer honestly dont think this is the answer to our 3rd line issues tho still looking at that spot and wondering what were gonna do

i think u might be selling bruins brass's love for taking risks short tho @scott_bruins man theyve made some doozies over the years imo

tbh i think we're all just reading into this signing a bit too much, it's 2 mil and we'll see how he does in camp @BruinsEnjoyer

tbh idk how people are saying were overspending here, gotta give them some chance to prove themselves @Bruins19

tbh idk how people are saying were overspending here, gotta give them some chance to prove themselves i think that's all we can really ask for, @Bruins19

i think thats all we can really ask for too, hopefully this guy puts some spark in the lineup before camp ends ngl i'm still not expecting much out of him tho

@BruinsEnjoyer said:

i dont think people are saying we're overspending just that this guy is pretty unproven at this point, hopefully he brings some speed or something to the table at least

yeah thats fair, unproven player, unproven results, we'll see i guess

idk man i think people are kinda down on this signing way too quick, lets give them some time to work with the guy ngl maybe he's a gem waiting to be found

@Bruins19: yeah i'm with u, lets not rush to judgment here, gotta see how he looks in camp @toddm_tc

@toddm_tc i think u hit the nail on the head, unproven player, lets see what he brings to the table before we judge him too harshly imo

yeah i agree with u and toddm_tc ngl we got burned for being too harsh on players in the past, gotta be patient man
