Went from massive mistake signing Miller & couldn’t sign Bo to trading Bo & having the better C stay & add Beau Hronek Raty costing a 2nd.

Far better at play making & leader on the PP & hitting & standing up for team mates.

I'm talking about what Don said. Even after I decoded your drivel, it's off the rails.

I just don't like contracts over five years. I know the players want security so it is what it is.

I hearya & agree. On 7yrs for JTM I believe it was to keep the AAV lower so hence the longer term. It’s the way it is these days & not always fan friendly lol

I guess it’ll come down to how the team is built & success in those next 4-5yrs that will be judged. Til then we’ve no choice cuz no rebuild & can only hope Mgmt has a plan that will succeed. That is us being a fan watchin n waiting 🤪

I still think the third most fun time for fan is TDL. NHL has got to make it more achievable.

Something crazy like the first five years is protected on the contract and any additional years does not go against the cap in a buyout. Players get their money, Fans get their wish and owners get screwed for being dumb. Win/ win/ win.

Horvat was a monster in the playoff games he played in Van, but that still doesn't make him worth close to what he's getting paid.
- NorthNuck

I agree. Sad thing is, if they focused on him in the summer it was probably around 7 which is about right

Describe hard hat as applied to Bo?

Comes in and works every day, takes the hard assignments. Zero complaints, zero temper tantrums.

Only a comment on the fanbases views as things change. Adding in my 2 bits.

On the latter I agree just have no ideas on the how.

The former is for CBA negotiations or amending to get that fixed.

Any normal person it would be strange but it is Booner and I don't think there is one person here that would be surprised that he even argues with himself.

Doesn’t hit much or defend teammates not exactly a playmaker. Don’t see enough passion.

On Bo as a captain he was workman like & improved himself. He scored fine & won FO’s at a good clip.

That said he didn’t do enough else to say much more good about him leading the team. Drafted & joined the team in the years of sliding downhill. He had the opportunity to play & grow then he hit his ceiling. A solid 2C but not good enough to take the team to a higher level. That’s not all on him but as a captain more was needed & expected. 8/8.5m isn’t value imo

JTM has already shown more leadership traits, seems also to be working well with EP.

Far too much for Bo. They needed him the (frank) out of the locker room. No surprise Pouty, Hughes and Miller are playing their best hockey and are improving their leadership. He had to go regardless of his contract
