JB stated euro skills with NA heart.
Willy is only 1/2 of that. EP is both & Boeser is working on it. Bo is another 110%er.

The Bruins get real value for the money with Marchand & Pastrnak. They play like winners & we need those.

JV is only 1.25m.
Why pay more for a guy who has Kessel as a comparable without Cups. Everybody knows what to expect from Kessel & Willy is gifted opportunity. Rather keep our own & any big trade is for a key need as in RHD.

The low $alary is what makes JV expendable to a cap strapped team.
As for your question, why pay for a guy that scores goals and is offensively gifted?
I dunno how to answer that without sounding like an Arsehole

Yet we had a decade of great teams that won Pres cups & we baste them for PO failure. My days playing sports meant hustling & being a team player in every way possible. Never liked any primadonna’s. Albeit i never played pro but every team i was on that was successful had character that took us further. Stars play like stars at all times & the less gifted raise their game. That is what i learned & why it takes a team & not the stats a player gets. Players who want to be difference makers are successful.

On JV although we are disappointed so far his contract reflects that. I don’t rail on him & he gives us cap cost control. That’s a big deal in the cap world & he only needs consistency & TG will reward him imo.

Takes more than scoring to win in the PO’s. What else does he add?

We need scoring bad, and it takes more than scoring but it also takes scoring.

Some people are allergic to all things Toronto.
As I said, if they wanted to move Nylander, I think they could find much better offers outside of Vancouver.

Karlsson is not a long shot, he wants to play with Malkin & Panarin.

He knows Lucic is there to protect him and to teach Virtanen how to be a power foward.
