4EverRangerFrank Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Boyle would be a good addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albatrosss Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Instead of whom? There’s no room for another scrub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 Haley or McKegg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keirik Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I said at least a few times here Boyle would have been perfect here. 4th line center with leadership, kills penalties, can still pot close to 10 goals , and would be very tradeable come deadline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted October 21, 2019 Author Share Posted October 21, 2019 Haley or McKegg? Or Smith at forward considering the only reason he's in the lineup is the fact he kills penalties — something Boyle excels at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Smith kills penalties as a defenseman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albatrosss Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Plenty of scrubs already on this team, dont need another one. Plus Boyle is a center, he’d have to push either Andersson or Howden out. Knowing Quinn it would be Andersson sitting in the press box. Im not okay with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albatrosss Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Or Smith at forward considering the only reason he's in the lineup is the fact he kills penalties — something Boyle excels at. We have plenty of penalty killers. I’d rather have howden and Andersson learning the PK than playing a soon to be a retiree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted October 21, 2019 Author Share Posted October 21, 2019 Smith kills penalties as a defenseman Fair, but he plays ES at forward. He was even a third-liner for a night. Far from ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 We have too many of these types of players. “Replacing” another player we already don’t need ... hence the there’s no need for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Or Smith at forward considering the only reason he's in the lineup is the fact he kills penalties ? something Boyle excels at.Smith is killing penalties on defense though, not forward.

Phil Posted October 21, 2019 Author Share Posted October 21, 2019 Entirely unserious counter: Boyle used to be a defenseman. ?\_(ツ)_/? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keirik Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I think the point was this. We are thin at center and we also currently have a shitty defenseman killing penalties at fwd. we also have two unwanted nhl players making the roster. Boyle would have slotted nicely as the 4c and pk guy. Kill two birds with one stone. Keep Anderson, Strome, and Howden as 2 and 3 c depending on who has earned it and leave them out of any 4th line roles because we literally would have had the poster boy 4th line center for cheap. Just a small opportunity missed that actually would have made sense and been a great fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albatrosss Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I think the opportunity was missed on purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
