Thanks for ending your workday with Helger and Mad. On 985, the Sports Hub. Dumb Mo! And streaming at CBSBostonSports.com. We do want to add one more thing if you were watching on the simulcast where you don't hear Murray's update. Murray, why don't you again give us this tweet from Brian Lawton, who is an NHL network analyst. He used to be a player agent. I think when I covered the league, he was a player agent. I just, the name sound familiar.

So he's been a... again give us this tweet from Brian Lawton, who is an NHL network analyst. He used to be a player

agent. I think when I covered the league, he was a player agent. I just, in the name, sound familiar.

So he's been a player agent. He was a GM, too. Was he the Minnesota GM? Yeah, I don't know about Minnesota, but it says on his Twitter thing here that he's, he was a GM. Okay, so he's at the The NHL network is where he is now, and he's a former agent and manager in the league.

What did he tweet out?

With what I am hearing, I would not be surprised if David Pashtonak of the he's at the NHL network is where he is now and he's a former agent and manager in the league. What did he tweet out?

With what I am hearing, I would not be surprised if David Pashtonak of the at-N-HL Bruins is traded. Hashtag contract problems. Okay, so how do you feel about that? Me or Murray? How does anyone feel about that? I want to puke. Well, it's another guy under 23.

They've no problem traded those guys away.

Kessel, Sagan, Dougie Hamilton.

Now we can't... How does anyone feel wrong with that? I want to puk. Well, it's another guy under 23. They've no problem traded those guys away.

Kessel, Sagan, Dougie Hamilton. Now we can't deal with you. Off you go. I have mixed emotions. So look, before you even say anything, like, I want to know what he's asking for. And I want to know what's coming back if they're trading him. So, you know, because if he's at, you tell me if I'm wrong, isn't the number

of him somewhere in the six, five and a half six area?

Six. Okay. So if, you know, if generally everybody knows that, then that's what the number

should be, right? So what if he's asking for like nine? Oh, eight, eight. No, if he's

asking for seven plus, then that's a problem. So then what do you do? If it's somewhere between five and a half and six and a half and they can't figure it out, then that's like that's outrageous. Okay, so it can't be that because that'd be easy to fix, right? You would like to think. There's got to be a big gap there in order for there to be a problem, if this is true.

You know, it's not like they're quibbling over a half a million bucks. I don't think. So it's got to be bigger than that. It has to be. So what do you do? So, I mean, I'm asking this as like, now the Bruins are stuck. They've lost all these young players. He's one of the best, two best goalscores on the team.

In theory, he should be a guy that they build around here for years going forward. Not necessarily stuck.

If you trade quality for quality, you're not stuck.

This trade, and it's not the exact same situation because it wasn't a contract problem,

but this Jonathan D-Drewen trade to Montreal for that first-round pick that they made a deal,

like their Charlie Mac, Montreal traded their version of Charlie McAvoy for Jonathan Drew on the third overall pick a couple of years ago.

It was a 22-year-old stud for a 21-year-old stud, and, you know, Drewruen was sort of ran his course in Tampa. They had all those problems there in Tampa, so it worked for both teams, and you trade talent for talent. Well, that's not being stuck. That's just, okay, trading comparable young player for a comparable young player. If that happened with Pasternak, I would not be upset. I told you, this guy scares me. This guy, he's, Bashak scares me a little bit. He can't keep his feet. He is a turnover machine. I know all young players are, but it feels like him. It's crazy bad. And just the way he skates. Like, I hate the way he skates. He can't keep his feet. And he's not slow. It's just something. He scares me a little bit. Okay. How confident are you in their ability to make the right deal? Not. Right. I'm not. But, I mean, so just look. They've been rumored for a while with Colorado. Colorado and them in Matushan, the center, right?
