I really, really, for the life of me don’t get how people think Poitras is a game changing talent? I’m not saying he’s bad, but I notice himself picking himself up off the ice more than him doing anything offensively.

Just don’t see it.. like at all.
Maybe not game-changing, but I see a two-way 50-60pt center. I don't think we can expect much this season given his linemates and with how disconnected this team has been. He has been feeding guys like Brazeau a bunch, but they can't even receive a pass.

Swayman sucks and I do not want to see him attempt to play again. Korposalo and DiPietro might as well take over the net.

I said previously to give Swayman a 2 year 5 mil contract to let him prove himself. Now we are stuck with this ridiculous long term deal with no real way out.

I'm not even kidding they need to tank so blatantly hard rest of season. They're 8 points away from picking in the top 5.. Lot of centers in mock drafts I've seen.

I want the elite prospect then come back on all cylinders next October.
This team needs a lot more than just one 'elite prospect.' The players on this team that are tradable aren't going to bring in game changers. Also, add in the bad long term contracts.
It's gonna be a long drawn our process before the B's are SC challengers again.

That 2019 really stings the more I think about it . Getting into cup finals is no joke and takes teams decades to get there.

Stop it. Please, man.
Just showing the numbers shep.

I don't know. Maybe that's true. This league is very year to year though. Especially with goaltenders.

If they can hit on a 1C in the draft with a top pick, I feel like a lot of this roster falls into place.

I may be higher than most on Lysell and Merk too..

To be fair this is probably not even in the top 3 of worst losses this year. Mostly because we all fully expect them to blow these kinds of games, get to OT and blow it in OT.
I've watched every B's game this season. Because I have, I never get excited when the B's are leading.
I have accepted the fact that this is a mediocre team and, like you correctly posted, I expect them to find a way to lose.
 
The worst possible thing is to have zero direction going into the deadline.

There’s absolutely no need in taking on contracts of 3rd line players which is essentially moving deck chairs around on the Titanic.
