Foot speed definitely included, as an aggregate it would be excellent value at 6 mill for that term in the upcoming market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was excited for him with this club, but its a business. And you can't let personalities sour a multi million dollar business. Its too bad, but they had to accept/cut the loss. Apparently, a couple other teams had to as well. There's not just some fan speculated management short sightedness when it comes to trades. Sometimes you just have to make a change for chemistry reasons. Eg. Nate Schmidt Edited February 24, 2022 by RWJC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addison would be excellent though, but would rather trade Boeser for him. Would like to hear your reasoning for this. Love the kid, but look at his DB for instance. Has never scored more than 14 goals at any level. Has a good motor but was never known as a scorer coming up through the ranks. On pace for like 30 points this year. Last year looks more like an outlier. I mean if we are being critical of everyone else incluing the captain and guys that have been calder candidates why should this guy be absolved from criticism. Can this team have a bunch of smallish guys in key positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have the cap for Boeser and he's not really a fit either. Edited February 24, 2022 by mll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boeser for Zacha Mudalihamin +/- Bahl Horvat for Debrusk Carlo Dickenson for anything anywhere. Our new 4th line: Debrusk Zacha Klimovich Our 4th line is the only one that works really well.

Yeah we don't need him either right? 2 goals in 2 games. Bo is making quite the 4th line center! Wish we had more ghosts like him! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the coach put the 4th line on for puck drop so they are the 1st line cause that's how hockey works.

I have faith in Hogs, simply because he busts his ass out on the ice. Looks to me like he has excellent work ethic, and so if he does the little things to improve his game, he'll find his way shortly. Might take a few years though for him to really hit his potential. I'd say he'll be an excellent 2nd line winger... 20 goals and 50pts regularly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Sounds like Los Angeles has been calling a lot. They have a bucket load of good young defencemen but none of them are really great or elite. Durzi is a good right-handed defenceman who seems to be putting up some points but is playing bottom pairing minutes right now and honestly I don't think he's good enough to be in the conversation for Boeser. Right now Brock is hovering around a point-per-game for the last 25 games. It looks like Brock and Petey are finally hitting their stride, now's not the time to trade or touch anyone because we're finally seeing this team's true potential. Management would be foolish to break up what we have now when they finally get winning again, even if the TDL is nearing. Sure, if we absolutely bomb the next 10 games then something may need to happen but we're recently 5-2-0 and have just come off embarrassing the hottest team in the league and broke open the league's best defence for 7 goals. In the last few games/month even, we've had one of the best top lines in the league and Boeser (occasionally) is part of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48MPHSlapShot Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 At the end of the day, Boeser's QO may be his undoing here. Love the guy to death, but at this point I'm okay with moving him, especially if it's between him and Miller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if he’s a middle six player, I think he’ll be in the 40-50 pt range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
