He didn’t like it

his article title was bo trade return is underwhelming

Drance is an idiot. Anyways I sometimes listen to him because he is on 650 and could have sworn hie was not being his usual negative self on this trade. He said he hoped it was not a one off and that management continues to trade for futures.

Yes if I'm not mistaken, we got our franchise goalie with an early second. 

Looking at 3 picks in the top 40 is wild for our club considering the horrible direction we were heading lol

But what if by years end they realize their team will suck more next year and Bo was not their answer? Guys on 650 saying Islanders trending downwards and getting older. 

It’s a bold move by Lou.

 

Will Bo sign in Long Island?

 

Will the Isles make the playoffs?

 

Will they keep a top 12 pick ?

 

Will that make them better next year.

 

all the signs are against the Isles,  I think perhaps they peaked not long ago and they should blow it up.

im surprised they let Raty go.

 

What points line is Lou looking for to go into the playoffs with ?.. and possibly with Bo unsigned, going UFA.

 

I think he will trade Bo before the playoffs if he dosent sign there,..  even if the Isles make the playoffs.

Yeah I don't understand what Lou is doing. I think we have a better team (underachieving though) and we're screaming sell. Yet Lou is buying... 

Is his job on the line?

That’s like J Patterson whining for 3 months about acquiring JT ..  

the media is short sited and relies on creating myths, and negativity to create stories.

 

I sometimes wish we could turn the clock back a million years Grandmaster,.  Back then we could Wack the dim wits over the head with a big stick and be sucking on their ribs cooked over an open fire ;) 

 

life was good.  :)  no useless information.

First round pick, a promising prospect, and a roster player for a player on an expiring contract.

 

This is an investment into the future success of the team, the main agenda for this team is to gather more prospects and picks and shed itself of win-now players.

So where are we at with Beauvillier? Is he a reclamation project or is he a good middle 6?

First round pick, had a few good playoffs. 

In his interview, he said he feels like he's played better than what the stat line says. 

Is this true? 

What are some of his key advanced stats? 

Is he playing the right way but just snake bitten?

Do we think we can put him with Petey and Kuzmenko for the rest of the season to bump up his numbers and sell high on him in the draft for another pick?

 

I am so happy we FINALLY sold high on a player. Makes me want to keep Boeser till he gets some decent numbers and sell him at that point.

I think he is a great middle six,  needs this opportunity,  and he will get it.

Great Skater, heads up anticipation, goes to the wide open areas with the shot, great accuracy, good skills.

 Seeing some of his vid,  you can almost compare him to Kuz. 
He is not a reclamation.

Why does the media and Bo Horvat himself report that he is in Disneyland? Isn’t he in Disney World / near the all star game? Or is he really is LA right now? Get it straight people. 
I suppose it may make sense to be in Disneyland as opposed to Disney World right now, as Splash Mountain - the best ride ever - is still open as Disneyland while it’s closed now at Disney World to be turned into Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. Fact.

Obviously, time will tell. 

 

But it might be something like Miller playing on the 3rd line in Tampa. 

 

Not comparing him to JT by any means, but... if you're not getting prime 

minutes, maybe given the chance, he can flourish. 

 

I wish the guy well.

Imagine picking 6th and 13th. Very realistic and would do WONDERS for our pool. Add in maybe some more 2nds via other trades.. Hell we could look at our 2nd like a late first as a "wise" man once said. This is the moment I've dreamed of as we are FINALLY at least to an extent focusing YOUTH AND FUTURE:towel:

Cross fingers - pick centers in the first round and D the rest of the way (maybe one goalie if the right option is there)

I hope you're right

We need good skaters playing in a tight system by Tocchet. 

Still blown away by Seattle's team speed (which i think was mainly due to everyone playing in sync to a really good system and coaching by Hakstol)

Im curious. 

I have no idea what his playing style is

Is he better or worse than Garland?

For sure Lou's job security is looking tenuous, but I think coach Lambert is shaking in his boots too...

I don’t listen to him anymore nor do I read his article. Based on his article title it doesn’t look like he likes the trade return 

I have no time for this wannabe writer
