  1. I would assume Sven replacement. He's nothing like sutter unless u are talking about playing centre a bit. I would bet he will play wing mostly , and in a more Sven like role.
  2. Yep. Great return all things considered.
  3. Ya i wasnt expecting much for burrows. This was a pretty good risk imo. We shall see. May not work out , but either way i applaud jim for getting a kid with this skill set for burrows.
  4. His father played 1000 nhl games He was in on 13 strait goals this year and almost a point a game in the swedish league (one league lower then the elite league) Hes from the same hometown as edler He is reported to have a great character. Almost a point a game at the wjc (5 goals one assist) He s only 19 Bad side.....hes small. 511 175 Good trade at this point.
  5. Yep. Well we way things are going , we will get a top end pick. The trick is getting a top end nhl r in this draft. So far , benning has shown he can find talent at any draft spot.
  6. Yep. Like he said, a winger , a goaltender , a centre and a d man. Pretty good imo.

  8. Its been said by a few analists that hes the best und prospect since toews and parise. Why is that so hard to believe ? Similar numbers and character , and has a faster release then parise did. Sorry bro. I dont think the expectations are wrong. Parise and toews are not aliens. Its not crazy to think boeser is in the same class.
  9. Half the posters on this board need a ball drop. Then threads like this wouldnt pop up so often.
  10. Salo was also injured every time someone even farted in his direction. Not a great example to use for durability. Smarts got &#!$ kicked on a regular basis with salo actually. For every undersized d man that makes it work, there are ten undersized d men with separated shoulders
  11. So how is he projecting overall? I remember benning saying he would have picked him in the second round at the last townhall meeting. He was really high on the kid
  12. pierre mcguire on 1040 5 minutes ago on boeser: "I have been around tons of prospects , and i have never herd more rave reviews then i have herd about boesers character. You guys have a real "hum dinnger" coming to Vancouver." Went off about what everyone has been saying about him , post injury included, in the pro hockey world. Says "he is the real deal."
  13. Ah. My mistake. I d say it will take more then that. Even at 6th overall , the average success rate is not overwhelming. U would have to look at all his picks , not just jake because he was picked high. One 6th overall pick doesnt lose a GM his job. One could even say its already offset by picking boeser. I remember that draft , and even the commentators were saying boeser was not the BPA at that spot. Now, even Craig Button said he is probably the best forward prospect not playing in the nhl. And thats one example. Look at our young blueline. To think virtanen would cost him his job is ridiculous
  14. Lol. Fanned on a pick? Guess there is no chance a 20 year old still might turn out just fine
  15. Whats that supposed to mean Are u homofobic or something
  16. Donald trump is president Tom brady defies god Men in tights make more money then guys risking their lives for others. Life hasnt made sense for a long long time.
  17. Dont get what? How two cowboy s can fall in love ? What are you homafobic or something ?
  18. Ya no explanation really. If there is a god , how much do u think its guna help him
  19. It is crazy to wonder how one guy could be so blessed. Its almost beyond reality.
  20. And doing a good job of herding on brokeback mountain.
  21. Speaking of grapefruits...... Dam i love those tights Im looking but i cant tell Left ball. Definitley left
