Brovat Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 On 2018-05-19 at 4:45 AM, N7Nucks said: To be fair pretty much anyone paired with Bo could probably vastly over perform. Kenins anyone? Who did Eriksson play with primarily in Boston? Bergeron or Krejci? His zone deployment was 50/50 pretty much in Boston, I assume he had a bit of a defensive role there as well. Maybe a Eriksson - Bo - Boeser line could do some real damage and reinvigorate Eriksson's offence. For whatever reason he didn't click with the Sedins but maybe Bo's two way, powerforward style could open up the ice for Eriksson. Clearly at the NHL level he thrives with two way centers. Probably too soon to throw Gaudette's name in the ring to bring up Eriksson's offense. I was thinking today that Adam, Louie, Granlund might be a pretty decent line. Each one has something to prove. Markus and Louie are responsible and could let Adam cut his teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

higgyfan Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 On 03/07/2018 at 1:00 AM, The 5th Line said: I like Sven. I really do see a 55-60 point 2nd line LW if he can stay healthy Agreed, it's all about staying healthy. He's actually developed into a more complete player along the way. He's really undervalued by many Nuck fans though. Maybe he's not an elite 1stLW, but he's the best the team has right now. I don't if he reaches 60pts, but he will score enough to be considered a very good 2ndLW. A big season coming up for Sven; he really needs to show what he's got. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Barzal Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 If he can transition into a third line two forward when the rebuild is finished I wouldn't mind keeping the kid. Anyone remember all the drama when he was sitting alone on the plane or something? People thought he was an outcast on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alflives Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Baer seems like a really nice person. He’s very likeable. I’m really not a fan of his hockey, but it would be so cool if he did put up 30 and 30 this season. Really wanting him to do well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-P Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Like someone mentioned Baer would look really good on a contender’s third line. Maybe with the nucks in due time... Suppose both Baer and Roussel are LW but would like to see them on a line with EP playing C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpn1 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) Watching some of EP's play-off games it was interesting to see when players would try to push him around, he pushed back. He has some fight in him but I would still like to see some size on his line for the first season at least. Edited July 18, 2018 by dpn1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kootenay Gold Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Got a hunch that Baertschi will play LW on the second line, with Pettersson and Sutter shuffling between center and RW at the start of the season. We might also see Leipsic with Brock and Bo as the top line. Just a hunch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those two seem to have some real chemistry and are speedy as hell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snacaracci Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 I wouldnt mind JV riding shotgun for a bit with Bo and Baer to see if he can raise his game.

Angry Goose Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 On 6/25/2018 at 2:50 PM, -AJ- said: I really hope we re-up Baertschi. With the loss of the twins, our offense is very weak and he helps it keep up a bit. While there are guys who could potentially take Baer's spot on the top line, it's risky to count on Leipsic or Pettersson when neither are particularly proven at the NHL level. Even if one of those kids can take up 1st line minutes and produce well, Baer would be great to have as a second line winger. Baertschi has a fair bit of leverage in this contract negotiation IMO, since we need the offense he provides, unless we can get it via the FA market from someone else for less. well you hit the nail on the head did't ya? All around I would say he is heaps better than 90% of the forwards right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boeser with EP also also looks good. Bo-Baer, EP-Boeser allows us to spread out scoring a bit. But I actually would like to see Virtanen with EP rather than Bo-Bear. With EP's accurate passing and Jake's skating, Jake may get a lot of breakaways.

I thought that Virtanen might be a strong compliment with EP passing, particularly the vision for the stretch pass. Either way, im excited to watch this group. Expectations are low but this is the development of the young players we all wanted to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
