I've known many nhl players over the years, many of them very good players with very long careers. Most of them were not great human beings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's definitely made some bad decisions, but he's still an impact player in a way Boeser will never be. 5 minutes ago, EddieVedder said: Kane, if he wasnt a cancer would be worth lightyears more than boeser.

But he will be down the road. This is a rough patch (I hope, fingers crossed). He’ll be a better player for this experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a non-starter. Kane won’t be coming here and shouldn’t. Carry on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.I.A.H.N Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Well, I think if you are looking just at Kane, sure...........I get it............I disagree, but sure But there is a 1st involved in the proposal, which if successful will play many more years, than Kane will and will not have an injured hand, and will probably skate damned fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Boudreau Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 5 hours ago, stawns said: 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 Was thinking Travis Konecny in Philly would be a reasonable swap. Both struggling offensively. Both later first round picks. Cousin connection with Horvat as well that Konecny has. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the thing you fail to account for - and that every homer fan can never account for - is the actual likelihood of everything going right. Some players regress, some improve, some stagnate. People can somehow talk themselves into every player improving on their team and never acknowledge any other possibilities. Also forget that other teams may improve (look at Anaheim, Calgary so far). If Seattle had good goaltending from Grubauer, they’d probably be in a playoff spot right now. He was playing like Binnington did against us in the bubble, but has recently been good. It hasn’t all gone bad for us. We have been one of the healthiest teams in the league. Only two injuries over ten games this season - Motte and Sutter. Fourth liners. &^@#ing come on. Hoglander, Miller, Demko, Hughes, Podkolzin, OEL, Halak, Garland have all performed at a fair level. Myers has good the first ten games and has reverted to being his typical $&!#ty bottom pairing self. He did this at the start of 19-20 too. Pearson, Poolman being $&!# were predictable. Horvat, EP, BB, Dickinson, Hamonic all sucked. (Dickinson being bad was predicted by some of the posters you hate on HF) If you trade two first round picks for a roster whose ceiling is like an 6-7th seed, in &^@#ing year 8 of this stupidity, that’s so bad. You have no margin for error. Gotta say… (…. was predicted by some of the poster you hate on HF) is like saying a broken clock is right twice a day… lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boeser plays like hes 6 years older. Brocks time in the league will be short lived moving forward. He is a below average skater, soft, average puck skills, who relied heavily on his shot which doesnt work anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
