ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 They should trade him while his value is still high, isn't that what CDC always says.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucksnihilist Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 He is recovering from an injury - and even the best players in the league can take 10-20 games to get over an injury. So lets talk after a quarter season, and see how he is playing at that point. btw: an injury to a back - where he couldn't move his legs - is NOT an insignificant injury. He is young and will get through it, but I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't back to full strength until half way through the season. haha I guess it works into the stealth tank plan... next year OJ and QH should help on D, so really we want Boeser back to full strength next year with an injury free season this year!

Yep we should trade that kid Pettersson too as his trade value should be through the roof! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utter crap. Wow. Just wow. He was playing scared though during preseason and early season. He shied away from contact on every play. He's obviously gotten a bit of his confidence back now though. Completely different player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG. This place sometimes. Scared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samgagner'sface Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 I don't think scared is the correct word, more like careful. After dealing with that type of injury its normal to sort of overthink things. It usually messes with your timing because you aren't letting your body just run on instinct. He'll be fine, but it'll take a bit to get back to how it felt when he played without thinking. My 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that he stuck with his team and potentially losing out a spot on team USA (if there was ever any doubt) just goes to show his character, loyalty, and team mentality. I can't see him being the type that will care more about himself than the team and hopefully that shows when it comes to contract talks. This doesn't mean we try and take advantage of this situation, but hopefully it will never come down to a Nylander type situation. For some reason, I feel like Gaudette has a similar mindset as well. At first I thought he would be a great trade piece to maybe help us bolster our defense, but it's hard to trade what could be a very good team guy and good teamwork as a whole overcomes individual talent often (see Vegas). You can tell what's a priority when it comes to drafting by Benning. Hopefully nice guys don't always finish last though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.B Cooper Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Is Boeser playing scared? The only thing Brock is scared of, is a bad barber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its natural in that kind of case. Its just a shame that kind of serious scary thing happened so soon in his career. And it could very well be having an effect on his play, even if subconsciously. That OP was written in early October. And I still see the Brock is not playing at the same level as last season. Not the same joie de vivre at least. But look at McDavid who had a relatively bad injury in his first season too. Like Brock, the injury kept him out of the top rookie race. Lets hope that like McDavid, Boeser will not allow that to be more than a speed bump in his development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
