He’s a bad bet. 

He could be, no question.  He's definitely made some bad decisions, but he's still an impact player in a way Boeser will never be.  If it were straight or half of his salary retained, Id say no way.  But if they were willing to give the 1st, that's a pretty tempting deal.........it's be a risk, but could pay off huge

You’re right. Boeser never impacted his significant other as much as Kane. 
 

That’s definitely the kind of guy our locker-room needs.

 

Win, or get a beating.

Imo, if you can dangle Boeser for Kane and SJ 2022 first, you take a serious look at it.  I get its a massive risk in the dressing room, but that's the best Value you're going to get for Boes at this point.  I don't see anyway you're getting anything but a 4/5/6 damn for him, given his performance and salary.

 

Kane is a huge upgrade on the right side and provides a lot of what the team is missing

 

I like the idea, but isn't Kane a LW?

I think you think hockey players have a more strict moral code than they actually do.  Most of the worst people I've ever met are hockey players

Stawns, I think you are right.

 

I played against a guy who played pro in Germany............he was a real pri....ck

His team mates defended him because he scored goals.....

 

Once he retired...........they all admitted that they  thought he was too, but they all liked winning

If gmjb can get kapanen for Boeser he needs to take it n run. 

Kapanen has pure skill, speed and a compete level this team needs.  

This guy: https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=162338?

 

I'd trade Boeser for Kasperi's dad in his prime: https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=2628.

 

But not for Kasperi. Kasperi is maybe only slightly more valuable than Jannik Hansen. I love Hansen and how hard he worked and yes, that is what this team needs now but Boeser is a top 6 forward. On his worst season, he will still put up 20 goals and 40-50 points. Kapanen will put up 40 points in his absolute best season.

 

Almost every forward on this team is struggling. There's no need to sell low.

 

Just minor tweaks + coaching change should be the first move if not, change the GM and then let the new guy assess and then deal whoever.

 

I don't want JB making a big trade anymore with the way he's pissed away assets since 2020.

We are trying not to develop a losing culture. Trading Boeser for a cancer like Kane is not a good idea.

I'd be concerned about the locker room. That room seems fragile right now - heck - all season.

Do we know he's a cancer in the dressing room?  Again, it's a risk, but the payoff could be exactly what this team needs

At this point, they're kind of playing with house money aren't they?  They're in a pretty good spot to gamble.

I mean if they bring a cancer like Kane into the locker room, it could collapse the entire room. Which at that point, we'd be in for a full rebuild, or should be. But we all know ownership won't allow that to happen, because that would be admission that they &^@#ed up the previous "rebuild" 

 

[EddieVedder]

Kane, if he wasnt a cancer would be worth lightyears more than boeser.

 

Boeser will be dealt for a defenseman.

Several members of the Sharks said they did not want him on their team. There have been no takers in a trade. They have put him on waivers for a reason.

He can unite the ENTIRE locker room......................against him.

The hockey players you know aren’t NHL stars who have a duty for good conduct as players that teams can market to the general public.
