Ted Lasso Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, CanucksJay said: Yup I believe Miller has the ability to drive a line while Horvat currently is doing what Boeser should be doing. Such an interesting observation. I’ve wondered if Bo’s been miscast as a 2C. Aside from face-offs, his strengths scream complimentary scoring winger. Great net front presence, deflections, rebounds, PP bumper goals…he is what Brock should have been before accidents derailed his career. He’s not a playmaker. It’s why I’m okay with our ‘lowball offer.’ Edited January 26, 2023 by Kenny Powers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller will outperform Horvat from 2023 to 2028 I really see Tocchet transforming and building Miller to be a complete player. Miller definitely has more skill and physicality than Horvat. If he can become a solid 2 way player, we'll be happy we kept the right guy You may have something there. Good point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya it’s tough. Chytil, Lundkvist, 1st and trade Nils for a 1st more frustersting seeing how good Chytil has been, that Nils got a 1st Round pick in trade And then having: Bo and Kuzmenko resigned with 2 extra first round picks in draft capital sounds great to me but oh well 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bo ain’t going nowhere. He will extend with us before the TDL. Our owner has never allowed a key core guy (while young and in his prime) to be traded, especially at a TDL. Yup coming Bo extension. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the two will be traded, can’t have 3 guys: miller, Bo, Petey(contract coming up) earning that kind of cash… spells cap trouble. Especially when the d needs a rehaul.

Sign it immediately in my opinion. An undersized winger who had an absolutely amazing World Juniors putting up 0 points. A RHD with some serious concussion problems. Ya, sign it immediately if you’re the Bruins… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No disrespect to Bo, but I have a hard time seeing him doing this again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demko = 5 Hughes = 7.5 Miller = 8 Bo = 7.5 Petey = 10.5 Total = 38.5 Thats actually a very good number for a team’s top 5 guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not convinced at this point. i dont want lysell.. he looked terrible in the WJC.. and also ejected for check to the head.. last thing we need is more wingers and swedes.. we trying to be team sweden? 2 EP karlsson the kid we drafted last season with all the head injuries.. OEL.. and add lysell? no thx.. and a defenceman that already have 5 concussion in 400 games?? if u guys not worried about the concussion? i'll take byram then thx. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Was a little concerned in last night's game, when Horvat got hit on the knee, looked like he was in pain going to the bench. Trade him now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Current state of the roster it would be yes, but the problem is they aren't winning with that and it's hard to add players to round out the team. Alternative is to wait things out until contracts expire, cap goes up to fill out the roster. Or, dump guys like boeser garland at retained salary to create cap to fill the roster (not ideal given how low value they bring back in a trade) . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMHAO our owner has directed management to retool, which means to change the supporting group but keep all the core guys. So I see Aquilini thinking this management can do now what Gillis did so great a job doing when he built around Hank, Danny, Kes, Eddy, and Lou. Could it work again?

Regardless trade would been a huge win for us and let us Keep Horvat and Kuzmenko.
