Boeser contract runs out in 2 years... Not like it's a 7 year miller deal... We won't be competitive during the 2 years. I think we can afford to retain some salary as we really shouldn't be spending to the cap anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Increasing comfort with the NHL game should surely offset a slight age related decline in this case, wouldn’t you think? I really don’t think those averages make much sense in this case. Likewise I think his unique situation probably deflated his value as a rental. Better to sign him. I am willing to bet it will prove to be a great signing. Sure, his growing experience in the North American game can cancel out nature's vial grip on the human body, I'm here for that argument. I'd also counter point that being a rookie has helped him immensely due to lack of scouting even though he has a developed game. The factor here is he's shooting at a nearly 25% rate, which is probably a good 10% higher then I expect him to be able to continue. I also just don't see where the value is over the next 2 years. I hope I'm wrong, I truely do, but I just don't see this team being good in that time. Not sure where his value to the team long term outside cute dimples and good vibes come from.

coryberg Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Big fan of this deal. Was happy to hear that Milstein was looking for short term. Didn't want to see a 6x6 deal. This keeps Pettersons kurri under contract through Petterssons contract year and gives me a glimmer of hope that he will re-sign long term. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not identical, he signed 2 yrs with Hawks, and won all sorts of awards. Then he went to CBJ, and eventually got his home run contract with Rangers. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemi_Panarin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top 4 D don't grow on trees... Rathbone hasn't played for 2 1/2 weeks? Another concussion. I think he is likely toast. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentSam Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I’m very happy for this young man, and to have his mom and dad with him at this time with everything going on in his home country, it’s a special time for them. Congratulations to Kuz and family. Keep up the focus, and great work. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The media's job isn't to celebrate, it is to report news. They don't report news anymore, they are an extended version of TMZ these days. Drance is the absolute worst of them all. He is like trailer trash. TMZ is actually more credible than Drance... 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So fill in two spots in the top 9 and a spot on the right side D. How do you think trading Kuzmenko would have fixed this problem? Getting picks and prospects would not improve the roster if at all. Plus we’re not rebuilding I’m not sure why fans keep denying this… Also you’re assuming that they don’t use the 20 million they unloaded? 7 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
