Popular Post JayDangles Posted March 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Dixon Ward said: Granlund has averaged .66 ppg in his career, Boeser .78 ppg. By what measure has he produced way more? Canuck fans are ridiculous, as soon as they determine a guy should be traded for these miraculous draft picks, they forget his value entirely. Even in a down year for him where he is on the 2nd line PP, Boeser is the 24th overall scorer for RW. He is 18th at even strength. Mikael Granlund is the 77th highest scoring Center. I've watched both players play a lot. If you remove Boesers first year then that stats are way different. Also Granlund has sustained his points pace over twice as many games, while never being gifted top line minutes. Honestly, Boeser is playing terrible this year. He has been gifted minutes he hasn't earned (example removing Kuz from PP1 in place of Boes). Granlund is a much more complete player and is way more desirable for a playoff bound team, as evidenced by the trade. If you asked PIT to give up a second for Boes they would laugh and hang up the phone. Boes doesn't have value. I'm sorry he just doesn't. This team plus his agent have been trying to move him all year. Edited March 2, 2023 by JayDangles 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is the Pens need to do alot more to reach Carolina, New York, and New Jersey’s level. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the stats and you'll see that Boeser is a superior offensive player. The reason they took Granlund was because they could get him for less and rightfully so.

PetterssonOrPeterson Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 2 hours ago, shiznak said: A team 11 points ahead of us, selling assets for a rebuild. Meanwhile, we’re 28th in the standing, selling draft picks for immediate help. I'd consider it a success if we manage to make another deal with a 1st coming back from whichever team while acquiring Hronek. if they make another deal including any one of boeser, garland or miller for reacquiring picks... its possible. That way we recoup the 2 first rounders we had and maybe even a 2nd back. We'll see what happens by the end of friday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure if they offered a 2nd for Boeser we would have taken it and run. Sorry man, Boes hasn't proven anything because his play is trending downward. And in fact he is struggling to even play a complete game. As much as people love to overvalue our own players, your way off base. I promise you, if/when Boes gets traded, we are either retaining salary, or adding a pick, and will be taking back a lesser player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
