5Fivehole0 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Some of those hilights were straight up DIRTY! Can't see why everyone bashes him so much, aside from the injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Doctor Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 10 goals before he gets injured again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Doctor Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 We have had Booth for almost 2 full seasons now and I have to tell you, I have not seen anything special out of this guy. I would have kept Ballard over Booth any day of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucklehead44 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I think he will score at a 27 goal pace, so at 75+ I will go with 25-29. He scored at a 23 goal pace his first year here and he was adjusting to a new team and battling injuries. 76 games, 25 goals, 19 assists for Booth is my prediction if he doesn't have any major injuries.

SamJamIam Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 People talk about the young guys, but our real "wild card" this year is Booth - if he stays healthy ( and that's a big if ) our top-6 starts to look very good again. The fact of the matter is this guy has all the "tools" we're looking for in the top-6 - size, speed, hands and toughness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hudson bay rules Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Agreed except we have 2 wild cards. The other is Hansen. Ninth in the league in points/game last year, top 30 the year before. Third in points for us last year while still having a great +/-. If he gets quality linemates and decent deployment from Torts (and I think he'll be one of Torts' favourite players easily), he'll be potting over 20 as well.

hudson bay rules Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Hansen is always a dark horse. Although he doesn't have the prettiest hands, he's a good 3rd line grinder who is good for 30-40pts and is only getting better at this point. Definitely worth having. 2011-2012 GP 82 G 16 A 23 Pts 39 2012-2013 GP 47 G 10 A 17 Pts 27 That's what he's on... It's called stats, learn them.

5Fivehole0 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 27 points in 47 games doesn't make him 9th in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insomniac604 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Booth is not a wild card. If he plays 65+ games, he will get 20 goals. He is a dynamic player. Tons of guys have had several shortened seasons. It's the average between Henrik Sedin and Sami Salo . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilovewinona Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 He did score 31 goals in Florida and in my opinion he is playing with far better players now than he did back then. The potential is there. I'm hoping he'll bounce back and score 25+ goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckRow Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I have no idea how people can see this guy getting anywhere near 20-25 goals. He lost his hands since his last year in Florida. The guy skates with one hand on his stick all day. Great at entering the offensive zone while skating it in, but nothing more than a third line. Which, of course is great, but not for 4 million and injury problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PavelsElbow Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 If he plays 82 games, and plays well he could get upwards of 30. Though, im sure he`ll be around 22-26. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabatoge95 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 75+ games and playing on the 2nd line, he should get 20-24 goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamJamIam Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 what drugs are you on? 27 points out of 47 games places him around 80th or so. (117th actually) http://www.nhl.com/i...ort=points&pg=4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surtur Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 42 i like to be optimistic .... Booth , Kesler, Kassian all explode on the score sheet as a full time 2nd line, kesler 32 goals 43 assists ( he learns to pass under tortz) Kassian 23 goals 34 assists... booth 42 goals 12 assists.
