How many points did the "Perfection" line put up against St Louis in 2019?
But, yeah ... let's blame the goalie ...

Boston Globe Will the Bruins' ownership do anything about this mess?

Can't see him choosing Bruins over Leafs or Rangers if he left Edm but who knows
I don't think the Bruins ownership will get behind anything remotely like that. It feels like it was a big step for the team to give up on the playoffs (more or less) by selling off at the deadline. I imagine another terrible season like this one and Sweeneely get sacked.

Yea and on panel 2 Saturdays ago that idiot was saying do you think Marchand is a HOF player? Guy Carbonneau not mentioned though.Glorified shot blocker.Most goals in a season he ever scored was 26 I believe.To lazy to look up those HOF stats
If he spent his career in Buffalo nobody would ever have considered him HOF worthy.

Exactly. Carbonneau had a slightly better career than Steve Kasper, and nobody in history ever mentioned the words "Steve Kasper" and "Hall of Fame" in the same sentence, unless it was "No way in hell should Steve Kasper be considered for the Hall of Fame". But that fraud Carbonneau wore a toilet seat, so he's in.

Here's the real comp (actually far superior player) who isn't in the HOF.

Not to argue for or against Cabnneau, but how quickly 3 Sellkes, and 3 Stanley cups, are brushed aside, oh ok he did not ply in Boston, where everyone belongs in the Hall of Fame.

It’s year 4 and they’re not in yet so I’d hold off on the “already” qualifier I’d think.

Either.
Talking about the player. Carbonneau was one dimensional. Propp more well rounded and much better offensively than Carbonneau.
The difference between Propp's offense and Carbonneau's was miles and miles bigger than the difference between Carbonneau's defense and Propp's.

You really hit the nail on the head, 4 -40 goal seasons, 4 - 90 point seasons, negative is the lack of a cup, is that hurting him and a Keith Tkachuk, and Rick Middleton...........

Yup --- but then you've got the Michel Goulet's and Paul Kariya's (among others) without cups, but with similar stats to them and Propp.
Personalities and politics enter in a lot this, and it is sad, pure bullshit in my eyes.
I would say yes if somebody offered me free childcare and a steak dinner date on Friday night.

On my death bed I'll probably be railing about Nifty not being in the HOF. I maintain that if there is no Too Many Men penalty and the B's close out game 7 in 1979, MIddleton's goal is the one that breaks the curse, the B's beat the Rags to win their 3rd Cup in the 70's, and he is in the HOF.

I wouldn't say that.
Propp wasn't even a center. Not even a Selke level winger. Carbonneau was one of the very best shutdown centers in NHL history,
Steve Larmer another LW that belongs in the Hall if Propp does.

Remember he was playing in the highest scoring era in NHL history.
Never top 10 in points, goals or assists.
To Don Cherry's credit he never named the player responsible, but that was tough. Everyone around here getting their panties in bunch about Marchand being disrespected, but no one was more disrespected more than Middleton, 12 point away 1000 and Harry cuts him, ownership had a say in that I am sure.

Propp was one of the best defensive wingers and penalty killers for more than a decade and out scored Carbonneau by over 300 points and 165 goals.
He played PK and PP.
I’d take Propp 1000/1000 over Carbonneau, as he was a much more well rounded player.
