Does anyone else have any concerns regarding Boeser's health? He's only played two years in the NHL, but he's been injured 3 times already (twice real bad). He started the 2018/19 season slow because he bulked up too much in the off season and took time to get up to speed. This year, he missed training camp and got injured again in a preseason game.

 

Has Laine been injured yet? Nope. And he's also never scored less than 30 goals in a season.

 

What if Boeser can't stay healthy?

 

 

Yes absolutely.

 

Canucks management does..

 

They came out and publicly said it in the media during contract negotiations.

Very good signing by the Jets. This allows them some time to further evaluate Laine and what he actually is as a player. In turn, this gives the player the opportunity in that this is a "show me" contract, challenging the player to prove his worth/potential and command top dollar for the next contract.

 

If Laine plays alongside Scheiffle or Wheeler, he won't have any issues scoring 50 goals over 82 games.

oh, wow 

This guy is gonna get Paaaaid on his next contract. 

Projecting he will be at his peak when it’s time to renegotiate, he’s gonna beat Marner money at that time if he figures it out, which I’m sure he can. 

 

These bridge deals will eventually prove the Marner deal was a decent signing, not a bad one at all. 

Marner's contract isn't that bad, he is one hell of a player, willing to stop the puck with his face.
 

Laine on the other hand, is a floater, with a face.
