D-Money Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I haven’t watched enough of Boyd to know him well. But he’s always had fantastic point production considering his TOI and usage. Doesn’t take many penalties, not many giveaways... On paper I’ve always expected him to get more opportunity, but for whatever reason it never happened. Maybe now will be the time? Or at least, I’ll be able to see first-hand why he’s remained a fringe player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if his face-off percentages were better, he'd be a great 3rd line centre, but as it is, he's probably best off not taking face-offs and either playing as a winger or simply moving to centre after the draw is taken by another forward.

wildcam Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) I am really excited to see Boyd play some games... He has talent just not given opportunity .. This season 20 GP -- 8 PTS --- 9:40 min on ice.. I think he could fill 3rd line centre spot next season.. 1. Miller - Petey - Hoglander 2. Boeser - Horvat -- Podkolzin 3. Motte - Boyd -- Gaudette / Vesey 4.MacEwen - Beagle ______ ------- Virtanen ? Maybe traded -- Roussel buy out??---Lind --- Gadjovich Edited April 5, 2021 by wildcam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For comparison, even Gaudette is better, averaging 41.7% over the last two years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
