Not only is BOS closing in on Matt Beleskey, but also hearing Bruins are working on a deal with FLA for Jimmy Hayes.

In my books he's worth about $3.5 million max. Injury prone, not a lot of points. Not great defensively.

I don't think Belesky is THAT good, but I'm glad he might be further away from us since he's a Flames-killer. 2G + 2A in 3 regular season games, then of course 5 G in the playoff series.
Palmieri too, he had 4G + 1A in 5 games vs us.

That would be epic, nickel and dime a stud defenseman and give the savings to a one hit wonder.

Really? They got rid of Hamilton so they can chase after Beleskey?

My lingering fondness for the Bruins for defeating the Canucks leaves me feeling bad for their fans who have to watch the team move out Hamilton and Lucic only to see the team re-hamstring itself with that Beleskey signing.

Thought Dreger said 4-4.5, not 4.5-5.

If Hayes is really available, the Flames need to move some of ther LW depth and grab him.

Beleskey averages 57 games played in 82 game seasons (I omitted his 1st season and the lockout year). He averages only 0.34 points per game and is only +1 in his career. And he's not good defensively. This is not a player you overpay for.

I love Sweeney. No idea what he's going to do next. This could be a pretty bad signing.

Matt Beleskey has the same career Point/60 as Matt Cooke. And Tyler Kennedy. Closing the gap on Matt Cullen too.

It sounds like Matt Beleskey's five-year deal with #bruins will come in a little lower than the $4.3M AAV Frolik got today.

sucks to be a Bruins fan.... feel bad for them, they built up a lot of good will for me for kicking out Vancouver a few years ago.

apparently even had better offers than that ... some GMs never learn.
Nick Kypreos @RealKyper
Sounding like Beleskey left more money on table to become part of #Bruins. 5 yrs could come just under Frolik 21.5m #Flames deal
