combover Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 I hope Bo does what’s best for Bo he paid his dues here playing with garbage on terrible teams and never complaining. someone should have told him to smash his sticks and have childish tantrums. He’s under appreciated, underrated. hope he goes for the max $$ he can get whether it’s here or elsewhere no “hometown discounts” this club wasted the years of discount contracts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Bo, but that feels high. I guess we need to look at it in the context of an increasing cap and how expensive free agency can be, assuming anyone decent is still available and willing to come here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophomore Jinx Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 (edited) This has been obvious all along, yet some refuse to see it. There's no way BH was taking 6.5 - 7, or it would've been done by now (6.5 x 8 is the most I'd be malleable to anyway) Edited October 3, 2022 by Sophomore Jinx 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just Friedman blowing hot air. Bo is not a comparable to Couturier. He’s a level below which is why 7 max is what they should be offering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24K PureCool Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 We have to trade Bo g8ven our abysmal cap situation. Try to get a 1st and a decent D men. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashian Kassian Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 (edited) He's not comparable to Couturier, Couturier is a far better defensive player & has had multiple 75 point seasons. Horvats scored 60+ once (61). If he was as good as Couturier we would've happily paid him that contract already. If that's what they are thinking we gotta trade him, unfortunately.

Honourable Hughes Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 What is everyone’s absolute max? I think 50 Million over 7-8 years with the ability to move him in the last 2 years. But I also wouldn’t move him unless we are getting a clear top D, preferably RHD, back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friedman is just playing wanna be GM. He doesn’t know they’re using him as a comparable. That would be a pretty easy one to counter for management. His numbers are not comparable at all. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elias Pettersson Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 If BO wants the same money as a guy who is consistently one of the best defensive centers in the entire NHL, and on top of that is consistently in the PPG range and is consistently in the 57-58% faceoff win percentage, then we really need to seek out a Horvat trade that can land us a true 3C and a top 4 RHD. We can add Höglander and Rathbone to the deal to make it work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bo is certainly in the conversation for being one of the best 2C's around and he is comparable in some metrics with SC. https://frozenpool.dobbersports.com/frozenpool_compare.php?players[]=2900&players[]=3868&period=2022-2023%3AR%3A99 So maybe the comp is useful as a max ceiling? say e.g., if they only signed Bo to a 5 year deal.

I'm sorry my friend, but there are no analytics than can convince me that Horvat is even in the same stratosphere as Couturier. Couturier is basically a modern day Ryan Kesler. Horvat is not even in the same conversation of Ryan Kesler... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
