Line Combos: CBJ Roster Discussion/Line Combos/Injury Report

Boeser on a big long term deal doesn't make sense for an offense that has Voronkov, Chinakhov, Marchenko, Fantilli, KJ, Monahan, Jenner, etc... as top six pieces, who knows where LDBB, Brindley, Sillinger, and Lindstrom fit in long term. But the point is we aren't going to be short of top six wingers long term. Most clubs don't have that kind of home grown bounty of top six talent and they will be the clubs bidding the price for Boeser to a level that is higher than we should go.



The efficiency of a Dobson type of acquisition isn't great, considering we can't give him the top offensive minutes and #1PP time. Meanwhile, who do we put out there to shutdown a lead in the final minutes? That's where a big add could go a lot further.

Boeser on a 6-7 year deal could make sense. Jenner is always hurt, same goes for Chinakhov and unfortunately Monahan. The only guys that are definite 25 goal scorers today are Marchenko and Voronkov. Not to mention this team could use another veteran presence, especially if they want to win a Cup one day. I dont know how many times I've read "were set" up front over the years when it has come to young players. Situations change all the time.

Currently Evason puts out Werenski in shutdown situations, is he a defensive stalwart? Dobson is relied upon in the same fashion, he's a young #1 dman that can boss his own pairing. That's crazy rare and currently he's analytically a better defensive player than offensive. I dont know how much "further" you could go than adding an all situation young #1 dman who plays the right side to your core for the next X years.

This TDL I'd like to see extension announcements for Voronkov, Fabbro, Olivier and Provorov. I know Provorov has been pushing for a long term deal and that's not ideal since he slots in as a decent #3/4 on most teams, but given his age, ability to play on the left and right side, and his durability I think I'd risk it.

Fabbro is the one I'm worried about. Haven't heard much about an extension for him.

I think someone asked Portzline or someone else and they said they were currently working on a extension

ARGH. Keep LDBB with JvR and Johnson for now, please.

Found out recently that Olivier has been with y'all for three seasons and CBJ fans never picked up his "Biloxi Bull" nickname. I need you guys to get on that ASAP!

I tried, but... well you can see the results.

dammit

EDIT:
even if it was just a "let's see how I do" situation and not a proper "setback", dammit
