I'm going to edit this post because I think what you are doing is different than trolling. You actually believe what you are saying and that is perfectly clear. A troll is someone who is just saying something to get a rise out of people, and while you are doing that, you are saying it because you honestly believe it. In my mind what you are saying is patently stupid, moronic, idiotic, and a waste of time, but your opinion is valid, because you have an opinion. Where you become a nuisance is when you repeat yourself to the same audience. We get it. You think Demko won't sign because there's another team that he covets. You don't need to say that in every thread you visit. Sorry for sidetracking the Boeser thread. I pumped my fist when we drafted him and I'm happy to see his development take a quantum leap this year. Like I said all along, I love Boeser, but he's not ours until he signs. I think us getting rid of vets, opens more spots for him, which could be attractive enough to get him out early. I'm hoping anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pass it to Bulis @passittobulis 16h16 hours ago Brock Boeser taking on three Quinnipiac players after jamming at a rebound in the crease. Headlocks one, stiff-arms another. Love this guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the likelihood that Boeser plays 3 more years for NDU and becomes a free agent in 2019? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super unlikely. He will likely join the Canucks this time next year. He is too skilled to want to be that patient. He isn't a late Bloomer like Vesey.

So it's not Zero. So the NCHC rookie of the year named to the All-American team starting lineup for the East in his first year, is going to wait 3 more years before turning pro. I guess that makes about as much sense as anything you say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could dangle the concept that if he comes now he would be finished his ELC when the rest of his class is just graduating. What do you think?

The Great 8 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 (edited) Him and Horvat in my opinion are game-changing players for the future. These are the types of guys we need to draft. Players who want to win and play extremely well under pressure. Bo played amazing in the memorial cup game and so did Boeser in his championship game. So pumped to see these guys develop and be a key part of this team going forward!! Edited April 10, 2016 by The Great 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scored the first goal of the series and was all over the ice. He even nearly scored on an end-to-end rush if I recall, dangling the whole Calgary roster.

Noble 6 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 The forward core we are building is one that will be built for the Playoffs. In those games where you can't buy an inch, its the best mix of character and ability that comes through. We have great set of players who combine both of those in Horvat, Boeser, Virtanen, McCann, Etem, Gaunce, Cassels, etc. Obviously some of them are more skilled than others, but they all have the character and the will that a championship team is made of. Baertschi - Horvat - Virtanen ********* - McCann - Boeser Granlund - Gaunce - Etem ********* - Cassels - Zhukenov Add in another top-6 pick (potentially Mathews, Laine, Pulujaarvi, Tkachuk or Dubois) and we are looking very good up front in the future. I think Boeser, Horvat and Virtanen will be the new faces of the franchise with guys like McCann and our drafted player as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this was a year ago, Who in their right mind would find hope or plausibility in your mock line-up? Oh my, how a year has changed our outlook, lol. And... maybe Rodin turns out to be real...

I am not sure what the rules are about NHL teams talking to their draft picks in the NCAA. If they are allowed to talk they should stay in touch. I was surprised when Demko said he had not talked to the Canucks this year. If there is an NCAA rule against it, fine. But, if not, the management team should stay in contact even if all they say is "great game, Brock" or "Congratulations on the championship".

Its against NCAA rules to have an agent while playing in the NCAA. I'm pretty sure it's also against there rules to have contact with members of a professional organization Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
