Hoping a good player fails.

OYVEY!!

to be fair, there are a lot of players over the years that I hoped failed, at least while they were playing for certain franchises

I’ve definitely wanted teams to fail and fail hard, but I can see the motivation to want a specific player to fail. I’m sure I’ve done that before. Let me have a little drama, please. wink

Broberg is the next Lidstrom..

JK, or am I?

I really like his game. Hes just good in all areas. Positionally solid, great skater, passer and Im having trouble thinking of one time he made a major mistake. I have no problem thinking of multiple for the rest of the DMen

You wouldnt be a fan if you didnt root against opposing players/teams.

If you want one team to win you must root for the entire league to fail so they can succeed.

Only a matter of time before we see Broberg and Parayko

I'd rather them take their time. Let Broberg get the feel of big minutes then gradually move him up to more defensively heavy minutes

I'll take the under.

My daughter always got excited during the games and cheered, “Go hockey!”

Kessel doesn't have any effect on Broberg.

He's his moral support. I've heard rumors.

 

[Klank Loves You]

Broberg has looked every bit a top 4 man. I wouldn't call him quiet, but he doesn't show a ton of flash. His ceiling is probably that of a complimentary 1st pairing.

Advanced stats for hockey are irrelevant without a large sample size. Broberg wont end up with a +82 on the season. But he is easily passing the eye test.

 

[sbet1998]

The best thing I can say about Broberg right now is that the Blues would be in trouble without him logging 20 minutes/game.

 

[TheDizee]

Broberg is becoming the next Pronger

I think he’s a combo of Gunnarson and JBo

So he’s just Bouwmeester then. Gunnarsson isn’t adding anything to that combo since Bouwmeester is better than him at everything.

 

[BluesAL]

Broberg is looking like a Heiskanen-lite. They use their skating so effectively to solve problems and create opportunities. You trust them in every situation. Broberg still has untapped potential and could narrow the gap.

What a steal by Army. I’d give him $8x8 now

Haha, that’s true. Maybe the Swede in him?

Definitely reminds me Jaybo but with way more offensive upside, he’s been unreal.
