Peeke doesn't play anything like Myers FWIW. Schenn is a far closer comparable. Edited October 10, 2023 by aGENT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain insano Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 If blankenburg wasn’t so injury prone I would love to give him a shot that kid has an incredible compete level, I could see Alvin working hard to land countryman boqvist as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Go for Boqvist. Decent two way guy on a good deal. I think there’s another level there with him. Hughes Hronek Cole Boqvist Soucy Myers Get’r done PA! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes Hronek Cole Boqvist Soucy Myers Get’r done PA! Cmon DeNiro why do you have to make me disagree with you a lot lately. Do better Boqvist is most definitely not a two way guy. He’s pretty much a poorer man’s version of Tyson Barrie. Peeke would be my choice. Beauvillier 30% retained for Peeke and a 5th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 I hope we stay away from Boqvist and Bean. Both guys we don't need. Rumors are management is worried about going into the year without Soucy. I don't see how adding one of those two replaces what we wanted from Soucy. Lol.

Mike Vanderhoek Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 I like Peeke, but I have a feeling there is not going to be any defense additions at least not early on here. May actually see Bear come back if anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes Hronek Cole Boqvist Soucy Myers Get’r done PA! Hard pass on Boqvist. Not a reflection on his skill just WAY to many injuries. We'd be back in the same situation within a month or two. I think he's averaging 46 games played per season since coming into the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well... let's say the Blue Jackets are willing to deal both Peeke and Boqvist for Garland & a pick/prospect.... you would wanna bet on Boqvist having a healthy season?? One huge thing that concerns me about Peeke is his +/- !! what's the point of acquiring a durable D-man if he can't defend well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind Boqvist as a secondary puck moving option if we load up on Hughes Hronek as a pairing, but his injury history is terrible. Peeke is the opposite for that, just a couple of games missed the last two seasons, but I wonder if his foot speed/mobility is good enough. How optimally would he mesh with Hughes? They probably want futures/prospects, when we would need to move cap back (or in a separate deal). Hard to see a good fit, but the way our injuries go out would be nice to pick up a solid depth guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've got $3m cap space and are definitely wanting to win now I think. I think a guy like Beau or Garland might work for them, if they're looking for a versatile fwd. I could see Garland fitting in well there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why we would pursue an injury prone, smallish O-minded Dman that is in the vein of what we already have but far less reliable is beyond me. I wouldn’t give up assets. He’d be more a a Free Agency signing. That is unless we were getting him for peanuts. Absolutely must stay away from injury prone players. Havent we learned anything from the past?!?

Sp3nny Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Blankenburg would be a nice add if cheap. Watched a lot of him at Michigan and now CBJ and am always impressed. Plays a lot like a more physical Stecher, all heart and compete. Moved the puck quite well too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those, or a bigger package for Jiricek (24 1st plus Hog? +/-) are about the only things I'd be interested in. I don't think there is any chance they are moving Jiricek for anything like that package. Have to be a big ++. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would rather a Peeke for Beauvillier trade. I am biased with Garland. Really enjoy watching him play. I know we rather have 2 way versatility with our forwards and paying a 3rd line forward 5 million per, who doesn't play on your first PP or PK for that matter doesn't make sense long term. Buttt, it's Garland. He's entertaining. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick_theRyper Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 ^ Garland is going to be harder to trade with the extra time on his remaining contract, Beauville is the guy they can move possibly without retention. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beau expiring contract fits in well with our longer term plans, where we will be paying significantly more to Hronek and Petterson (probably) next year. In addition, the hope would be that Podz or some of teh other dev players in Abotts are soon ready to play in Top 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WE really don't have a player at RHD that can play his role...and even more thin on the whole D with Soucy's injury.

Couldn't agree more. I don't know why some people can't see how obvious it is. He's signed for two more years right during the big OEL hit. Like it's great he's fun to watch but he's a huge obstacle to our getting any better. Do we want to watch cool water bugs who arguably produce at 2nd line levels or do we want to win some playoff games? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
