Lol - no chance Boqvist makes the Hawks. Layoff the crack

is bo captain yet

Fun game, liked how the team showed some backbone and played a heavy game.

MDZ and Biega were brutal to watch. Both of them play hard but are just not good defenders. At least MDZ threw some big hits, but man does he make some bad reads.

I thought Hutton was one of the better players, Granlund and Motte had decent games as well. First look at Beagle, you can't tell he's 32 years old with the way he skates.


Goldobin and EP struggled as a line at 5v5.

Gudbrandson has some issues but he did not make any big mistakes . We do need his toughness and big hits. He was the first one in the scrums and made sure Canucks did not get kicked around. He also had some solid hits in front of the net.

Is he worth 4 mil? Not even close but he is here for 3 years and we do need his toughness even if he has fought only twice. Definitely a third pair Roman Polak type of guy (1 300 000).

Sounds like Boqvist might make the Hawks. Will Dobson make the Isles?

NHL19, by 2021 boqvist is a 91 OV elite defenseman who you can't trade for because he's so good. Dobson is an 82OV top 6 defenceman with similar trade value to tanev in 2021.

Just a bit more evidence that size is overrated, although it does make the man.

He's not worth 4 million, Beale isn't worth 3 million, but I've been informed that it doesn't matter because we have cap space. So if his salary doesn't matter then I'd say he's easily one of our most important depth players, like Beagle and Rousel.

And?

Liked beagles game last night... he is a very good pk guy. Better then Sutter. Wonder why jimmie b didn't label him as a foundational piece ?

Also Bo really looks like he is coming into his own as well ! His game definatly looks like it's taken another big step forward.

Blockhead Jimmy B awarded Sutter as foundational and Gudbrandstone as the concrete needed to build this team. There are only so many players that you can label as the stones of a team before the fans start calling BS.

Chaput has 2 goals . He might make the team

I want Gudbransen to do well. If he doesn’t have a good season and he gets injured again I feel his time will be up at the deadline.

It’s only their 2nd game. I want to see them together more. They have chemistry.

You mentioned Roman Polak now at 1.3.

Are you saying you want 32 year old Roman or younger Roman?

I said Gudbranson and Polak are similar. Nothing about wanting him

If he doesn’t get hurt this season he will prove his worth.

You just want to pay a 26 year old the same as a 32 year old?

WTF are you talking about ?

Where did I say want?

Hutton looked good and played over 30 minutes. Unreal.

Virtanen on the other had holy (frank), cant get a play going to save his life and basically coughed the puck up with lazy ass, dumb passes to the opposition. Too bad we just spend millions on the fourth line because at this point, that is where he is destined to ride out his career.

What a bloody disappointment.

The entire paragraph about how hes not worth 4 million but hes a 3rd pairing guy like Roman Polak (1 300 000).

Just trying to figure out what you were attempting to get at then? What was the point of what you were saying?

I am saying 4 mil is way too much for EG . Some of his skills this team does need though even if they are overpaying him 2.5 per year. Nothing more nothing less.

I am comparing what he brings as the same as what Roman Polak brings at a cheaper salary.

Stop trying to read anything more into a simple statement.

Really surprised with Hutton in this game.

The good Hutton or the bad Hutton? Which is going to show up more often this season is the question.

We know which. Consistency he will never have and that’s the biggest thing at the NHL level.
