Bruins poprvé od ročníku 2015/16 nepostoupili do play off, už v průběhu sezony vyhodili kouče Jima Montgomeryho a po konci základní části se rozloučili i s jeho nástupcem Joe Saccem, kterého ve funkci nahradil bývalý německý útočník Marco Sturm.
Před uzávěrkou trejdů uspořádali v Bostonu výprodej a generální manažer Don Sweeney vyměnil na Floridu i kapitána Brada Marchanda, který pak deseti góly zásadně přispěl k obhajobě Stanley Cupu v podání Panthers.
Na Bruins zbyl Černý Petr, svezli se až na chvost Východní konference, ačkoli jejich nejproduktivnější hráč Pastrňák potřetí za sebou překonal hranici sta bodů, tentokrát měl 106 (43+63), o 49 více než druhý v klubovém bodování Morgan Geekie.
V Bostonu pochopili, že tým bude potřebovat závažnější proměnu, aby mohl znovu konkurovat nejlepším. Ale že by se v ní nepočítalo s Pastrňákem, vypadá v tuto chvíli dost přitažené za vlasy. Smlouvu v klubu, kde působí od začátku NHL kariéry s průměrným ročním příjmem 11,25 milionu dolarů, má ještě na šest sezon do roku 2031.
Na Floridě mezitím řeší generální manažer Bill Zito otázku, jak na další roky okysličit tým, když má pod platovým stropem 19 milionů dolarů a smlouvy vypršely Marchandovi, Samu Bennettovi a Aaronu Ekbladovi.
Pokud by se měl na Floridu stěhovat Pastrňák, pak by to musel sám odkývat, jelikož má ve smlouvě klauzuli o nevyměnitelnosti. A fanoušci Bruins spíš počítají, že se v Bostonu stane novým kapitánem a bude dál ústřední postavou týmu v přestavbě.
V době draftu a se startem volného trhu už NHL zažila lecjaké zásadní výměny. Tohle by byl ovšem trejd 21. století a Florida by musela obětovat zásadní kousky své šampionské sestavy, aby se Bostonu opravdu vyplatil.
Vidina Stanley Cupu může být pro Pastrňáka nesmírně lákavá, ve finále 2019 byl od něj vzdálen jedinou výhru. Ale rozhněvat město, kde je považován za hokejového Boha, taky nevypadá jako úplně dobrý nápad.

F1 Austrian GP live updates: FP2 latest at Red Bull Ring, after Mercedes’ George Russell fastest in FP1
It’s not unusual at all to see Mercedes perform well on a Friday in F1 this year. The team has typically hit its performance ceiling sooner in the weekend than many of its rivals, struggling to make the same kind of step from Friday to Saturday as the likes of McLaren or Red Bull.But the team will still be boosted by George Russell leading the way in opening practice at the Red Bull Ring, edging out Max Verstappen by just half a tenth of a second. Mercedes has typically performed better when conditions are a bit cooler, and although the cloud cover through much of practice might have helped, it has still been 24C (75F) out there.Verstappen, a five-time winner at the Red Bull Ring (four times as the Austrian GP, once as the Styrian GP) ended the session a […]
Cam Newton, Marshawn Lynch coach up current NFL players on personal branding
Eric Williams NFL Reporter <!--> LOS ANGELES — Former NFL MVP Cam Newton has certainly not faded into the sunset after his playing days.Through content creation and provocative discussion on his social media channels, Newton has developed a second career after football. And at the NFL’s annual Player Personal Branding and Social Workshop this week in Los Angeles, the former Heisman Trophy winner and Super Bowl quarterback encouraged current players to take a similar path. "Use [football] as a tool, not as oxygen," Newton told young NFL players during a breakout session. "It’s cool, but once you’ve leveraged your access and leveraged who you are, that can pay you dividends for years to come." Now in its sixth year, the two-day event offers players insight on entrepreneurship, securing partnerships, getting the most out of social media and other ways to build their […]
