Hutton's not going to be happy playing 3rd pair minutes when he clearly could/should be playing more. There's also the matter of cap $. Eventually Tryamkin, Hutton and Juolevi are going to start warranting top 4/top 2 pay. You can't have your 3rd pairing D making $5m+ when your top 4 D are also getting that kind of money. Speaking of redundant skill sets....Juolevi, Brisebois, Tanev.... teams want those types of players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fake strained "media voice" he puts on is as spine-grating as the drill as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the more reason to sell high on Tanev while he's worth something and isn't in the long term plans anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to be consistent, plus konecny was willing to play now and did good for a rookie. I haven't passed judgement on how good Boeser is yet.

I think UND will go far again and he would still have to sign a contract. By then we will either be done or have 1 or 2 games left, which I doubt they would rush him into at that point. UND out today. I'm guessing Boeser should get NHL games this year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also not sure of the rules but if we sign him is he not eligible to play for Utica in the Playoffs? If so how would that not be better for his confidence & development? Demko's doing all right in Utica last I checked. Huttons done alright & Stecher isn't to shabby either after turning pro. Just to name a few College kids making the transition to Pro...

I never said college kids turning pro was a bad thing. I'm not sure what you are arguing with me about. But then again your ramblings never do make much sense to me. Go play with someone else.

He's another Horvat type to me. But what do I know... Boeser will be so sheltered here, he is not required to be Bo Horvat. He is our Brett Hull. The next 15+ years of his life will be about scoring goals in the NHL. I don't see this playing out with any complication, Willie will give Brock time because Brock is a coach's kind of player. He's decent in all areas, but mainly he just wants to score. The kid will have to earn it, though it will inevitably be earned. He's never going to be our saviour, but with Brock our goals-for will go up. He can get a shot off from any kind of pass at any spot on the rink and that's something I don't think we've ever really seen here. Patrick Laine lite?

I beive it's too late for him to qualify to play in Utica on his entry level deal. One way around that would be for him to sign a pro try out with Urtica and then sign his NHL contract later, but I doubt he would want to do it that way. He'd be interested in playing NHL games this year if he can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingofsurrey Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Maybe if Benning knew a bit about hockey he would have kept Cracknell... Cracker got a hatty tonight. How many hat-tricks have Canuck fourth liners got this year..... 600,000 Cracker has one goal less than 6 million dollar Erickson this year..

Crabcakes Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 22 hours ago, coastal.view said: it's a tad more objective than you make out was mcdavid the best player available when he was drafted ? (and was there any dispute at all about this?) why ? so now apply that to each player in the upcoming draft there is a reason why players can be ranked it's not an exact science which is why there is always debate about the ranking but generally we can say who the top 5 are the next 5 the next 10 after than it kinda blurs more I'm just saying that it's hard to put your finger on just what BPA is. Maybe you're right about the objectivity of BPA. I'm just saying that what is BPA to one GM is different than another. It's not cut and dried.
