Played the boards well. When I watch BB that is who comes to mind. Might be off base. Patrick sharp was an excellent skater. Extremely High IQ player with great hands that also had the skillset to play centre. The guy played for team canada at the highest level. Boeser is nothing like sharp. Look, hes a decent guy, but Ppl on this board are extremely delusional when it comes to boeser. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Counter point, most people around here talk about Boeser for what he is, while everytime you talk about him you're delusional. 1 1 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 He is what he is. No mystery to what he is as a player anymore. He is never going to be the deadly sniper he looked like he was going to be as a rookie, his shot is diminished. He is surprisingly good on the boards, he is pretty good passer and setup guy and generally plays smart if not terribly engaged in the offensive zone. He isn’t very fast, doesn’t play a tough or gritty game at all and isn’t the best defensive winger out there. He is useful on one of the power plays and doesn’t get buried 5v5 but don’t want him out against top lines. Very nice young man that has been through a lot both emotionally and physically in his career. Could probably be more effective if lost a few pounds and worked on agility and explosiveness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the ones that take it to the extreme on either end. We have to learn patience with players...sometimes we give up on them too early. Especially if there are extenuating circumstances (as in Brock's case). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkSave Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Great article. Nice to read about a player being honest with their game and the circumstances which led to the struggles. Accountability. Honesty. Integrity. Character guy for sure. I cheer for Brock. Seems like a solid person who has been through a lot. I wish him success moving forward whether he is a Canuck or not. I have been critical of his game the past few seasons but I hope we give him another look. I would rather try and lift him up, rather than push him out. See how he comes into camp and performs during next year. Plus we likely won't have any decent offers based off how he has played the last few seasons and his cap hit. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nave Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Boeser requested a trade because Boudreau almost sat him for Hockey Fights Cancer Night. Now that Boudreau is gone, and Boeser has found his love for hockey again, I see no reason to trade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boeser might not have been playing well lately, but I genuinely think he's a great person that went through something tough at a young age. For him to open up about it while being someone scrutinized more than any of us will ever know takes some serious courage and maturity. Maybe shut your mouth next time and just appreciate what this young man might be battling though right now. There's more to life than hockey.

Nobody is saying Boeser is a bad person, he's just not worth his contract. If something that simple offends you, maybe the internet isn't for you. Maybe head back to Roblox or whatever the f**k place you go to talk about sunshine is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
