Player Discussion: Brock Boeser | III | Our Boy in College

[castanza]

Benning said that Boeser will return to college next year but I'm not too sure about that.

I bet if boeser says he feels he's ready that he'll get signed. I also heard you aren't allowed to talk to the team till after the season ends. So we'll have to wait till after Boeser's season ends.

Benning said it was only his gut feeling that Boeser will return to college, nothing set in stone at this moment. I agree, if he feels he's ready and wants to turn pro then it just might happen.

Benning suggests his gut is telling him that Boeser returns to NCAA and maybe Demko turns pro. Far from official, but that's his "sense"

Ok, useful post.

 

[MS]

Demko had damn well better be turning pro.

 

[TARS]

Demko had damn well better be turning pro.

Considering the learning curve for most goaltending prospects, it's in his interest to move up to the A to start getting a feel for the pro game as soon as possible. Not much left for him to gain in college hockey.

 

[Burke's Evil Spirit]

I don't see what's served by Boeser staying in college another year either tbh. Get him to Utica.

Wow I'll consider that movement from earlier this year when Jim and Trev sounded certain Boeser would be back in NCAA next year. I'll consider this a step forward. Maybe they've recieved a signal from Boeser's camp?

I hope so, would like him to get time with the big team at camp next year.

If he continues to progress the way he is playing, then he's a lock to be in the top 6 in 2017. Likely follow a TJ Oshie career path.

Maybe, would like to see him in camp before making that decision.

Sounds exactly the same, just a little more vague the second time.

Linden visited Boeser at UND not long ago, so the "signals" might be in fact a face-to-face conversation between Boeser and Linden (and Boeser's "representative"/ agent too?)

Other NCAA draftees (Schroeder, Raymond, Schneider) reported periodic in-season communication between various management types and themselves, so the lines are open, at very least. Then there's communication with the representative, which could be weekly for all we know. I suppose the Benning regime could be less communicative that previous regimes (except for Linden's personal visit lol), but with Jimbo being such a hands-on scout type, I doubt it.

 

[WTG]

Halfway through the 1st and Colorado doesn't even have a shot on goal.

Gotta feel bad for them.

 

[Cupless44]

Such an idiot that he nailed Boeser at 23rd overall. Maybe pile on Benning in a thread where it makes sense.

 

[Roy Baby*]

He's got a point tonight

 

[WTG]

Secondary assist

Colorado is really keying in on Boeser

Luckily for UND they are stacked throughout the lineup.

 

[Roy Baby*]

Primary A on Schultz goal.

2 points tonight. Atta boy - Brockelis Boesthurr at it again

 

[GetFocht]

Boeser has now surpassed Colin White in PPG at 1.28

Well, Benning said he felt that the Canucks were a 100 point team going to make a playoff push, Prust was a character player and Sbisa was worth targeting in the Kesler deal, so his opinions sometimes turn out...different.

Yes, every time you think the Canuck braintrust finally has realistic grasp of where this team is at, you shudder to recall Jimbo's assessment of the squad before the season....and then you come to grips with the Miller, Dorsett and Sbisa contracts, and the dread about the future starts up all over again.

 

[GetFocht]

I think Boeser should turn pro, his scoring pace is similar to Larkins.

 

[Goon42]

Id like to see Boeser play another year in college. I dont want him around the tire fire that is the canucks for at least another year.

 

[Breakers]

Me too.

He will have Tyson Jost as his line-mate next year, and potentially schmaltz if he returns.

 

[WTG]

Tonights game I didn't think Boeser had a great night.

Only a couple scoring chances. Colorado was playing very physical on Boeser specifically. They gave Boeser very little space to shoot and mostly forced him to the outside.

Even then Boeser still got 2 points. You really can't shut down this UND team it's incredible.

 

[D0ctorCool]

2 assists so far for Boeser. Anybody watching? I'm just box score surfing.
