Boudrias Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 2 hours ago, N4ZZY said: really happy to see Bo doing so well recently. he's on pace for 30-35 points this season at his current pace. if he goes any hotter. he could easily hit 40 points. but I'd be happy for Bo to finish his second season with 30 points. he can build on that next season. maybe 40-45 points in his third season in the league. but he's on pace to finish at his current pace, at 15 goals. which would eclipse his best of 13 from last year as a rookie. good for him. Baer on a side note. is looking to finish at 30 pts. 14 goals and 16 assists at his current pace. not bad for a guy everyone thought was gonna be a wash at the earlier part of this season. I was one of those questioning whether Baer would stick. I thought he would get 40 games and he started playing a better game before the 40. He is definitely not playing the same game he was. Last night in the Canes game it looked like he was actually looking for contact. He was bumping guys regularly in puck battles. He seems even faster as well.

I believe most people weren't upset at the trade per se (although probably better to have kept Schneider instead of Luongo... but that's a different thread)... just many felt the returns could have been better. I think the expectation was at least 1st rounder plus prospect. Considering the Oilers were rumoured to have offered the #7 and perhaps Klefbom, MG's asset management was poor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't upset, but I did want Nichuskin. But now, I'll take my Horvats. Bo-lieve in the Horvats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to us to draft Nichuskin but wasn't mad we picked Horvat, I was more pissed that we only got 9th OA considering, as you said, Oilers offer was huge but on the other hand I get that we traded Schneids to NJ because EDM is a divisional rival.

Never see him associated with the Alumni which is disappointing. I remember reading about him being super busy with his tile company, which supplies a lot of the condo buildings under construction in the Lower Mainland. I think he made some kind of business connection after his career ended with Bosa, who I've also heard mentioned gave Luigi Aq his first job. Hence, Tanti has no time to play for the Alumni.

You can't claim poor asset management when you can't prove what the Oilers' offer was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing Schneider backed Oilers would not be fun at all. I think MG's asset management was poor but it's good that he didn't trade Schneider to Edmonton.

I had my doubts as well in the beginning of the season when Baer wasn't showing much. But I'm glad he proved me wrong. And I'm glad he's showing that he's proving to be a top six player for this team. He's on pace for 30 points, which is a decent season, for his first full season. Let's hope he continues to work hard in the off-season, and come back with an even stronger season. I'm expecting him to break 20 goals next year, since he's on pace for 14. He's getting more comfortable for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaudette Celly Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I thought it was what Gillis was asking, and Edmonton balked then were surprised he went for only the single pick which was lower than theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flickyoursedin Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I think either way Edmonton was dumbfounded because they were being asked to and were offering more than just their 7th overall pick but my assumption was Vancouver brass didn't see the + on Edmontons side enough to keep Schnieder in the division.
