anyone who gvies up a first for Boeser RIGHT NOW is certifiably insane, the Islanders were seriously considering a trade for him before the Trade deadline last year and their scouts came back to Lamouriello and advised against it. the consensus was that his injuries have left him tentative and fearful on the ice,,,,Watch him play and make your own opinion.
the man is only 27 and was a great scorer, but now he is a step slow. I really hope he can find himself again, but I fear he may be out of the league by the time he's 30, its truly sad, but watch him yourself, something isnt right. What it is, no one can say, he's still a young man but theres more than Just a slump at play here.
They say its a hand injury, but how does that affect his skating? he's just not moving well. Some say his Dad passing away has left him mournful and unmotivated, ad that could certainly be the case, but give it awhile before you trade a 1st for him, let him return to form before you jump the gun. Thinking about it more, it’s probably just losing his dad, I know when my Dad passed I went into a funk for a few months before I snapped out of it. Why should he be any different than the rest of us?
