He scores on the PP and wins faceoffs. That's it. That does not warrant 7x8 here You were saying? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does not warrant something around 7x8. It's wasting money like this that keeps us a bottom feeder. All but 4 guys are 1 way players on this roster. That includes bo There is something anonymous about Bo's game. Maybe it's the lack of assists. I agree that he's not worth 7+. But he'll get it. Why did someone like Brad Richards get superstar money ? He never got 30 goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more he scores, The more likely he is traded lol Boeser is the lynchpin imo. Once he can string a few games together and show he's healthy I think we see a trade to free up the cap space needed to ink Bo.

He's clearly the leader of this team and a guy they'll want to build around. Without Horvat, Miller was pretty invisible last night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have Miller hate at all. I think he's a great player when he decides to be. I've never said anything different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you don't dislike him, its more to do with Rutherford not doing what you wanted re: trades and it colours how you view his play. IMO we're lucky to have him.

If you sign an $8m+ deal then you better be the guy every night, last night I barely noticed him, that's all I said. Unfortunately it looks like he's not going to be the C that management and fans hoped he'd be when he signed that deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how you can make that decision on him, based on what we've seen out of him over his entire time here. Its not like we haven't had a chance to see what he can do. Yes he had a crap start like the entire team did, but that seems to be changing for the better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Horvat Leads in goals Leads in power play goals leads in shorthanded goals leads in shorthanded points 1 point behind E.P for lead in points tied for 1st in power play points tied for 1st in GWG best face off percentage on the team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky for us JR thinks different in this situation how is cap space 'no mans land'? moving Brock free's up 6.6 mil, once Bo is signed there's a lot left over for a UFA 3C, e.g. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to stop paying premiums for 1 way players. BO is the only guy they actually admitted to potentially trading. He's not the leader he wants. Same with Bruce and Co.

Pearson may not have put up points, but DAMN his effort level was above everyone else last night. The way he battled and kept skating through every check and fighting for the puck. The past few games Pearson has kept his feet moving while being checked along the boards and hes muscling his way through and its leading to possession 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
