Thread: Get the Boeser out of here
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boatface</b></div><div>Butcher has the same upside as QH without the hairspray and cockiness and can throw a hit.
Boqvist plays all positions making Motte a tradable commodity come deadline. Like a better Aberg.
DeAngelo has a bigger upside and can be packaged for picks once or if Woo is ready.
Lemieux replaces Sutter and brings the spice.
Patrick is better than Boeser in every category but doesnt get credit as he has played 3rd line in Philly.
Give him a season with Horvat or Pettersson and then complain about goal totals.</div></div>

Yeah he doesn’t get credit for like the 25 points he had last year. He was the number 2 pick in his draft and he’s not even a top 5 player lol. Boeser is way better. Hughes has a ton of potential and butcher is a 2nd or 3rd pairing d-man. And you gave up a goalie who has a good chance of being a star, and another solid d-man prospect for 4th line grinder/ahl forward and an okay/good d-man

Thread: Team Canada
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>teams are built as a whole. It's why McDavid would never be the top center for a canadian team. I don't care what you say about it. He can't win a face off for **** and it's a huge advantage in the game.
You win the face off, you get possession, and everything else goes easier. Which is why Bergeron who has never been a top 5 over all center in the league has always made the canadian team.
Because when you have to win the puck, he's the guy.</div></div>

I understand the importance of possession and winning the face off. Personally, I’d still put Crosby over him just bc of his defense. But I mean come on, it’s not his fault he’s having to do everything. Alex chiasson was his top line winger last year!! The oilers don’t have anything around him on offense besides rnh and draisaitl, so yeah he’s spending more time focusing on offense than defense. Like you said, teams are built as a whole. Bergeron has the luxury of having 2 of the best wingers in the league on his line, plus 3 more lines that are really good w a solid defense and a Vezina-level goalie. McDavid has 2 other good forwards 2 good d-men and that’s it??
