-AJ- Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Perhaps this could even be it's own topic, though maybe once the season is over and finished: I think an interesting discussion will be on who had a better rookie season, Bure or Boeser? In Bure's favour: - He scored more goals (34 goals and 60 points to Boeser's 29 goals and 55 points) - He had a higher points-per-game (0.92 points-per-game to Boeser's 0.89 points-per-game) - He won the Calder In Boeser's favour: - He played in a less offensive era - He was undoubtedly the best player on the team, whereas Bure had Linden, Larionov, and Courtnall to rival him - Boeser's 2017-18 Canucks were much worse than Bure's 1991-92 Canucks There's a chance Boeser plays a few games at the end of this season, so things could change a bit, but I think this is an interesting discussion.

It's been 11 days since his injury. Has he really healed up? Please don't play him just so we can score some goals if he's still injured. That said, if he's actually healed up...that would be a miracle. Do you have to be taken off the IR first to be moved to LTIR? Maybe that's happening? The original estimate was 4-6 weeks, so two weeks would be insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Zepp Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 If the kid wants to play and is medically cleared, let him get his 30th goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skategal Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Is there a limit to how many players we can have in IR? Saw a video clip of him this morning coming on the ice for the team picture. He was on skates, but moving very gingerly. Certainly not playing anytime soon. Baertchi did it right, sweater and hockey pants, but in street shoes.

I wonder if it means he could be well enough to play for the USA at the world's though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpennyCanuck Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) Haven't seen many updates on Boeser's injury. Saw Boeser, Stecher, MDZ and Tanev at the Keg last night #paparazzi... Just thought you would like to know that he didn't look like a cripple if anyone was wondering. I'm sure he still cant play, but good to see that its not as bad as everyone thought it was initially.

Considering the hockey wild market they play in, I'm betting those guys get stared at a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was thinking it was pretty funny that the injured hang together haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stop at the first line as my head goes back to a time when forced to read bad poetry or similar. Bully for you trying to create a style but not sure how many even notice. I think you were comparing Bure to Boeser but you could also have been describing a beautiful sunset and your unfulfilled dream of being a dancer for all I could tell. 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's said in the past that he's tired of conforming to writing standards as he's done all his life, so this is his way of doing things his own way. That said, I find it very difficult to read as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could choose to post in German, for example, as I often tire of English but that doesn't mean I should expect many to understand me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
