Can anyone provide information or insight to Boqvist's play in Columbus last season and this season in Florida?

 

[Chapin Landvogt]

Boqvist on waivers now, another young reclamation with a high draft pedigree? Selected 4 spots ahead of Dobson

You called it!

I finally called something right

Waiver collections, who’s next - Brandon Saad?

Now you got ahead of yourself.

Can anyone provide information or insight to Boqvist's play in Columbus last season and this season in Florida?

Put simply, pretty different to the two seasons before that.

Seems to be a guy who - at least up to now - has done real well when there are no doubts about his role in a team and a certain security involved with it.

Seems to become very careful and average when he's one of the guys caught in the numbers game.

His 5-19-24 in 43 games in 21-22 was the kind of pace folks had expected him to regularly come in at over the course of his career, but PP time was involved there.

And George currently.

I would see a Boqvist pickup as another plug to keep afloat considering the injuries and a try-out period if he works under Roy.

Now that George is going to get sent to. The AHL, I would like to see if we can loan him to the Chicago Wolves than the shitshow in Bridgeport.

Isles 9-2 in their last 11 games and have killed 22 out of the 23 penalties in those 11 games.
Great job staying out of the box and killing them off when they do

 

[doublechili]

Remaking an entire defensive corps over the course of a week not a bad job for a GM asleep at the wheel.

I think Roy has Lou tied up in a closet somewhere and he's making the moves now.

Looks like Miller to NYR is happening.

 

[PK Cronin]

 

[Arsenalogist24]

Yanni Gourde out long term now too. Price of the Brock goin up!

 

[Throttle]

Wondering when Drury dumps Lavy and brings in Q.

 

[RWWallpaper]

I’m sure Vancouver gave him to the Rangers for next to nothing… Teams just can’t wait to help those assholes out for whatever reason

[Throttle]

Hey look at that, another player with a NMC waives it and is traded. Huh…

 

[Zeeker]

So… is Lou going to hold onto Nelson/Palmieri just to fight teams like the Rangers to the death for that WC2?

Seems like a worthwhile cause.

He needs to bring in Babcock to help that roster out. Mike would do wonders with the morale there.

Rangers win the trade, I think it’s crazy anyone is saying otherwise. Miller scored 100 points literally last season, the cap is going up and he’s only 8M.

I don’t care how old he is. This is their version of the Horvat trade, except in this case Miller is signed to a deal from before the massive cap raise was announced. Would have made a similar deal in a heartbeat

This was not an option for NYI - Miller had a no trade clause that allowed him to basically dictate a trade to NYR. The fantasy of Miller or Peterson for peanuts was always just that, a fantasy. Now that that situation is resolved, at least until the offseason, the Isles need to figure out what they’re going to do this season. I would guess a lot depends on the next 5 games before the 4 nations tourney.

Isles dodged a bullet.
