That’s what we’re all praying for, Boyle 2.0.

A little more defensive effort/ ability would be nice

Odd statement. Boyle was perfectly adequate defensively and if Cagnoni can be as effective defensively in the NHL as Boyle was, that would be incredible.

You may be recalling 39 year old Boyle. Prime Boyle was extremely solid defensively. Obviously had limitations because of his size but he was comfortably average and played very tough minutes. You don't play on the Canadian Olympic team if you aren't solid defensively.

I am basing it only when he was a Shark.
He seemed the anti Braun.

Boyle was very good defensively up through 2013. He did fall off in his last season and a half with us, but he was ancient at that point.

if he were to reach his peak potential, i feel like he's more likely to end up like a jared spurgeon than a dan boyle. boyle was more flashy offensively to me. spurgeon just does everything right.

Bold of you to assume that we haven't prematurely declared him the next Dan Boyle.
