If we can only trade one between Garland and Boeser, I'd rather trade Garland. Hogz or Karlsson could do what Garland does.

Second only to Woo in penalty minutes too. Not a shrinking violet when it comes to the after - whistle scrums. Another trait Tocchet will appreciate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were both dynamite when they played with Aman as their center for a few games. That would make a great 3rd line for the big club 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, he's acclimated well to his level of competion though the last couple seasons...would still have prove it at the NHL level though. He's faster, feisty(ier), plays the boards and goes to the dirty area's... Tocchets kinda player. Beoser has (or had) a better shot but I haven't seen it lately, plays soft (IMO) and around the perimeter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I felt like Hogz really only struggled with finishing this year, he created so much and was such a hard forechecker before he was sent down.

He lost the trust of Boudreau with some poor defensive coverages, but for sure has tightened that up under Colliton. I was surprised he wasn't a staple on the PK, like Karlsson is. I'd have thought Hogz game - tenacity and retrieval - was tailor made for penalty killing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a big Karlsson fan--he's probably the 2nd most exciting offensive forward in Abbotsford outside of Hoglander, but he's not a Boeser replacement unless he explodes into the NHL next year. Boeser produces 50-60 points a season. Karlsson does the same...in the AHL. Let's wait till we see him in the NHL before labeling him as ready to take a top 6 spot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the same opportunity as Boeser, Karlsson would produce good numbers and get to Boes' level in fairly short order, imo.........the puck really follows him and ge gets a ton of touches inside the hashmarks. That will usually mean points, no matter the level 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's listed as 6'1" and 178 lbs, but about a month ago the intermission piece on him said he was 6' 2" and playing at 195 lbs. If he could just develop another gear he'd be a prototypical power forward at that height and weight and skill level 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a bull on the puck 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
