  1. He hasn’t worked on his speed and his hands. Like others have said, you have to work on your game each year and get better. Especially when injuries have pretty much costed him his shot. Looking towards more wingers like Mikh now. Score goals, PP, PK, speed and size…a little bit of everything.
  2. NBA all-star weekend is exciting, the NHL though, I hope they get rid of it soon. It’s so bad
  3. Maybe he was expecting the Canucks to cave in and pay the big money after his agent met with Allvin after that Hawks game. I have no idea how much a player is involved in these type of talks, but this is like the third interview I’ve seen from him and his face looks full of regret and sadness. I don’t know, could be looking too deep into it. Whatever looking forward to Pettersson, Smith and Ratty running 1C, 2C and 3C for the next 5-10 years hopefully.
  4. I see pain and regret in his eyes. Need to setup a plan already to bring him back. Intentionally play like crap on the Isles so they miss the Playoffs and are forced to trade Bo as a rental to a contender at a low price. Isles lose the trade. Bo gets to enjoy a Playoff run this year. During that time Nucks tank, win the lottery, draft Bedard and Reinbacher. Bo goes to UFA and signs with Nucks at a discount cause we guarantee Bedard as his linemate. Stanley Cups. Done. Easy. Kuz - Pettersson - Miller Bedard - Horvat - Mikh Hogz - Ratty - Podz Hughes - Reinbacher Demko
  5. I wouldn’t pay anything over 7.5, even then…Isles aren’t that team so I don’t see him taking anything low there.
  6. He was probably hoping to get traded to a contender not the Islanders lol. At least he will get his big pay day. That rumoured 7.5x7 offer seems very fair. I wonder how much Bo is involved in these contract talks or is it strictly his agent.
  7. Yep. Sounds like a steal for us. I can see NJ going after Boeser in general though. Meier would probably cost a 1st, Holtz and few other good pieces. Plus he would cost an insane amount to sign. Save some assets and maybe just go with a retained Boeser instead and hope he regains his old play in their system.
  8. Well, that’s a good thing. Team won’t be going anywhere in the next couple of years. So if retaining Boeser gets us a better deal, then go for it.
  9. Wow, if Holtz is offered you take it and run imo. Former 9OA, still very young.
  10. That deal is unlikely, but I can see a few teams going after Boeser if we retain. Good plan B and his cost will be cheaper than other guys on the market like Meier.
  11. Man if that’s offered. I’ll drive Boeser all the way to Jersey.
  12. Ratty - Podz going to be such a hard line to play against. Excited for the future. Also potential of 2 picks in the top 15 in what is considered the best draft since 2003
  13. Waiving that protected pick is really going to be interesting. If Isles miss the Playoffs and draft around that 8-12 spot, Lou is going to be in a tough spot. Waive that pick or send us an 2024 unprotected pick lol. East is also only getting stronger and the Isles are only getting older and we just took their best prospect lol.
  14. Ratty recognizing that he needs to get better at his skating is a good sign. Hopefully, Rutherford and co can get someone to work on that with him.
  15. Bo interview was similar, a little awkward. Guys just got traded so they’re probably a little shook from it still.
  16. I would be happy with Grans. Maybe we can squeeze out a 1st, but like you said unlikely. 6.04 and 205, top 4 upside?
  17. Yes, but they can waive that apparently. They can still give us the the pick this year regardless of where it is. Obviously they wouldn’t waive a protected pick in the top 10. But if it ends up being an 11 or 12 pick it can come our way if the Isles want to. And if they’re concerned about that 2024 pick being unprotected. New draft odds where teams can jump up 10 spots has teams concerned? I don’t know.
