Where would Johnny Gaudreau fit in the Boston Bruins lineup?
With Nick Ritchie heading out the door and Johnny Gaudreau used to playing on the second line – it’s a no brainer to put him next to David Krejci and keep the Perfection Line intact.
Boston Bruins forward lines with Johnny Gaudreau.
Marchand – Bergeron – Pastrnak
Gaudreau – Krejci – DeBrusk
Frederic – Coyle – Smith
Bjork – Studnicka – Wagner
This is a really solid forward group here.
How realistic is a Johnny Gaudreau to the Boston Bruins trade?
Even with the Calgary Flames current struggles – it is tough to see them trading one of their cornerstones and apple to many Flames fans eyes.
If the struggles continue and Flames GM Brad Treliving decides enough is enough though, he could be willing to move a big name in order to acquire multiple pieces to fill their current weaknesses and acquire assets.
Imagining that was to happen, you know Johnny Gaudreau would be the first name brought up in the rumour mill.
Don Sweeney and the Boston Bruins should be one of the first callers in that scenario and attempt to trade for the skilled winger who would finally solve their long lost second-line wing stalwart. As much as he is beloved in Calgary, he is equally loved in Boston for his time playing in college and would immediately return a fan favourite in Beantown.
