Such moronic takes from this shelless turtle. The Quebec sports media really enjoys giving clueless senile old men a mic....
The quebec french mediaI is actually really embarrassing some will say complete stupidity for clicks or maybe some are just plain really bad at their job.

I have nothing against him personally but I really dislike the way he justifies whom he likes and whom he dislikes.
Sorry but you can't masquerade as some kind of “scout” and have takes about a kid who hasn't even played a professional game yet.

He's a sensationalist.

Just gives his opinion but not much to support it. His goal is to be heard so of course he lltry to have hot takes.

Do not kid yourself, plenty of embarassing anglo media across the country…. Ever heard of Corey Pronman from the athletic? He is on the same level of clickbait stupidity as Boisvert.

That's fine…it just makes him a fan like you or me thoughh.

Yet he's always attacking the fanbase for having “fefan” takes on their own prospects.

I just don't rate him at all

I can't stand this pinhead Snake and now ill be rooting big time for Mesar to make it in Laval this season and have a good year.

I was never a big Mesar fan, don't know much about him, don't watch CHL hockey really. But I really hope he shuts him up this season

I like Boisvert in the sense that I appreciate he doesn't hide from his takes. He puts his name on them. However, I disagree with a lot of his takes. He's obviously trying to be sensationalistic with them. He has zero faith in Mesar. He says Beck's ceiling is a 4C in the NHL. He says Mailloux will be a career AHL'er. And at a few episodes in the off-season, he kept bringing up trading Hutson or Mailloux to address the Top-6. Was even willing to move them for Laine, who was rumored to be on the block after he requested a trade.

I don't mind anyone who doesn't hide from their takes, its just his are quite obviously made almost entirely out of spite.

Don't forget Quentin Musty! Snake spoke about him being a generational prospect!

I stopped listening to his takes after hearing his dislike of Logan Mailloux.

Its fine not to like Mailloux as a prospect but to say he's a career AHLer is ridiculous.

The goalposts will u do undoubtedly move on that.

Exactly, it almost sounds personal with him. He also doesn't think Beck is anything but a 4th liner, he could be right but most think he is a future 3rd liner with possible top 6 upside.

Even that, I don't think anyone think Beck is gonna be a surefire top 6C.
