personally I think Bolduc isn’t top line material, but more of a middle 6 guy…
I’m sure they could put Slaf there again and it would work but his chemistry with Demidov and Kapanen makes it hard to not keep them together.
He probably isn’t, no.
This being said, and Slaf is the perfect example of this, we need to be patient with young players.
Slaf has looked better and better and better each year and there was still noise about trading him away for a 2nd line centre. Bolduc is in his second season in the NHL, on pace for more or less 20 goals…. he’s doing fine, he’s just being asked too much too fast.
Alex Burrows, Pascal Dupuis, Christ Kunitz…. none of these guys were technically first line materials but they found a way….. why not him in a few years?
Until then, Dach would be a fine option.

I would have given the same anwser. Easy take to have.When is Dach is coming back? And why do you think Bolduc is not a good fit there with Suzuki and Caufield?
From what I’ve read, Dach should be back in the lineup early January, so we’re talking in about 1 to 2 weeks.
As for Bolduc, it’s not an exact science of course but since you asked:
I don’t think he process the game at the same speed as the other two just yet. He’s a good shooter, he’s decent along the boards but he doesn’t seem to think the same way they do in the offensive zone. It might simply be by lack of experience. Caufield didn’t play like he’s playing right now when he was 21, same thing with Suzuki and both players were better prospects/more talented than Bolduc so we need to be patient with him. As I said, his shot remains a weapon and, eventually he might belong on a top 6 line. Time will tell.
Monty in tonight, against his former team, hopefully he’s found his mojo back…
Texier on the 1st line, good for him but I don’t know why he’s there to be honest lol.
A good performance from Monty would go a long way to both helping the team and letting Fowler develop properly in Laval. Sadly, he hasn’t shown anything this season that could inspire confidence in that regard.
As for Texier, he’s kinda there by default. Bolduc doesn’t seem to click all that well with Suzuki and Caufield. In fact, I’m thinking there’s a good chance Dach ends up on their wing when he comes back if the Demidov-Kapanen-Slafkovsky line keeps producing the way they have.
i lied and told them i had just thought of something embarrassing from my childhood (that way if they asked me what it was i could say it was too embarrassing to tell them).
It’s like you’re a social mastermind.
Merry Christmas Eve Eve everybody !
I like it here.
Even when two of you are disagreeing about Danault, you are still nice people.🤘
Merry Christmas friend!
We’re all great friends that get along here.
THAT’S RIGHT, ALL OF US!
I’m also working, but at least it’s from home with a nice offee and the kids coming to talk to me every 10 minutes so it’s not really serious work.
Which wasn’t true. He wanted the same $ he got in LA, but MB refused.
Since he left, “They” had to create a reason for their loyal media arm to convince the fans that Danault leaving was actually good.
Agreed.
I’m sure Chantal Machabée is very convincing.
oh wait, are you telling me they exist or asking if they exist?
i’m confused.
i googled it and it’s real. he said he had duck sausage too. i know i love duck but i’ve never had rabbit.
It was a little of a weak affirmative statement and a little of aquestion about what else is there to say about them but I fully understand how you didn’t get all that from two words.
canada, good afternoon.
talk to me about rabbit sausage.
They exist?
I’d say both are pretty accurate.
While I respect going out of the box with the draft, I think not considering McKenna as at LEAST a top 3 pick is… let’s call it bold.
