Biggest surprise with OEL was how salty he was. He got into way more scrums/rough stuff than I expected. I was not expecting as much physicality as he brought.Yeah, weird take. Had no issue with him.

Yep, agreed. Was very pleased with that part of his game.Biggest surprise with OEL was how salty he was. He got into way more scrums/rough stuff than I expected. I was not expecting as much physicality as he brought.
Lol come on guy nobody thought your defense was gonna regress cause you lost Marc staal. You guys still had three quality dmen whennyou lost gudas now you only have two. Although I think boqvist will excel in Florida and he's cheap.People said the same about us losing gudas and staal lol
I wonder how people were laughing in the OEL thread when we signed him
I dont see our defense falling off the cliff, even to start the season last year without ekblad and montour we did really well when most expected us to seriously regress.
Boqvists injury history worries me though, but we have 3 other guys who could take his spot in a pinch.
Forsling-ekblad
Mikkola-Boqvist
Kulikov-Schmidt
Bjornfot, Ballinskis, Megna as extras
Not world beaters but it seems solid to me, Kulikov was an absolute monster in the finals
Why tf does everyone keep shitting on Mikkola? Is it an educational issue with how he did here last year? Same goes with Kuli. And why is Schmidt suddenly such a problem? Especially in a defensive structure like ours??Lol come on guy nobody thought your defense was gonna regress cause you lost Marc staal.

With an oft-injured “defenseman” who couldn’t consistently stay in the lineup even when healthy? Have to think Zito could do better than that for a 6D.This is a typical Zito move. This guy knows how to build a team.
Cool, is the goal to be better than the Leafs or do the best team you can be? I would have thought everyone would agree it was the latter.And yet somehow still do better than the Leafs lmao. Players come to Florida to revive their career. Players go to the Leafs to get paid and lose.
Yeah. I’m gonna miss him. I hope he continues to do well.Biggest surprise with OEL was how salty he was. He got into way more scrums/rough stuff than I expected. I was not expecting as much physicality as he brought.
No, you didn't. Not in the post I replied to.Do you know how to read? I said Dahlin to mentor him not steal his job.
Boqvist could have easily been a 7th defenseman with a path to work himself into the lineup but now we have Kyle Clague so we are set.
Oh so you jumped into the middle of a conversation pretending to know whats going on. Read post number 6. No need to apologize.No, you didn't. Not in the post I replied to.
"dO yOu KnOw HoW tO rEad"?
Dang, wanted him in Colorado to pair with Brannstrom on the bottom pairing.
Did you clone prime Hasek ?
We've been told this is the case for years. Thankfully we lucked into a SC couple of weeks ago. Might be a lottery team again this year.Boqvist and Schmidt replacing Montour and OEL...An injury to Ekblad and I dare say the Panthers miss the playoffs next season.
They already were one, Skinner was just saving at .790. Unless you're saying that was the D's fault.true, just look at what the oilers did this season turning themselves into a good defensive team
Florida seems good getting good value out of players like this.
Boqvist didn't play a game in the AHL last year. Hasn't played one in 6 years actually. Your takes are so bad.
Hes about to be 24 - he isnt going to turn it on now out of nowhere and didnt develop in other leagues before wallowingOf course Florida signs him. I wanted him in Buffalo with Dahlin to mentor him but sabres fans said that was stupid.
So he will go to Florida and mature there and will turn into a top 4. The rich get richer.
Just because he hasnt played in the AHL doesnt mean maybe he shouldnt be; hes not good lolBoqvist didn't play a game in the AHL last year. Hasn't played one in 6 years actually. Your takes are so bad.
Man this post is tough. Plenty of players develop in their mid 20's. Literally countless examples. He hasn't played in 6 years. You're doubling down on this terrible take? Lol sad.Hes about to be 24 - he isnt going to turn it on now out of nowhere and didnt develop in other leagues before wallowing
Montour also has a singular season that stands out - he isnt exactly some great comparable to what you were going for
