Sean Monahan Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I remember people talking about Pacioretty and Okposo being possible cohorts for Boeser (I think it was you, @baumerman77) last summer. How's he stack up now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Boeser, guys cool it. He's far too good to finish his full 4 years at University. By that I mean he could probably play next year at the NHL level, and as a guy who wants to be a pro player, you have to consider how many years you can get in. People shouldn't be freaking out about Thatcher either. This circus caused by the Vesey situation has a lot of fans in an unjustifiable panic. Can't start freaking out until it actually happens. Very good post Ossi. Financially, it's a no brainer for Boeser to sign early. However if you're on a plane at 30,000 feet, that has lost all power and is falling like a rock, I bet you panic before the inevitable impact. I also believe Demko sigs with us soon, but the plane just might be flying on one engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crackers Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 11 hours ago, iinatcc said: McNally is a Canucks prospect drafted in 2010. He is an American that decided to take the college route in Harvard. It looked like Benning had a hard time signing him so he was traded at the last draft for a 2015 7th round pick. Note McNally was drafted in the 4th round. Apparently McNally is a big stud D-Man and is seen as a PMD. A prospect Vancouver could have used. I said the McNally situation because it's like trading Boeser's rights for a 4th round pick. Not at all. Draft picks are worth exponentially more the higher up they are, and Boeser has already turned more heads than McNally ever did. Also as others have already noted, McNally doesn't appear to be much of a loss at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McNally stayed in school all 4 years because he was focused on getting an education in case he wasn't good enough to make the NHL. It was a good move for him since it's unlikely he makes it. I don't see Boeser having that same thought process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tate Olson looks like a better prospect now too so really, no harm no foul. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tre Mac Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Selanne's rookie goal scoring record is in serious jeopardy next year. Just a matter of which canuck breaks it first Boeser or Laine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UFCanuck Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Boston somehow passed on Kyle Conner and Boeser to draft 2nd rounders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
