Too much of a perimeter game, gotta hit the tough areas.

Yup. The bottom 6 sucked as usual but this team isn’t going anywhere if Bo doesn’t play more inspired hockey.

Gaudette looked lost too. Center play after EP was a mess.

CBJ really squeezes every ounce of lemonade that they can out of that roster, Torts is a good coach when he gets to work with a team built to his liking.

Canes are legit but I still don’t trust their goaltending. If they acquired Lehner at the TDL, they would’ve been scary.

Canes are quietly building up prospects. A goalie would complete it.

Always thought it was good to punish the D.

Yup, it’s not like Suter, Spurgeon and Brodin are big bruisers. I love how Minny went after EP, Hughes, Tanev and Edler. I’d like to see the same done to Fiala, Brodin and Spurgeon.

Also, this team looked slow. I’d give JV a chance at redemption. Guys like Pearson, Toffoli, Beagle and Sutter looked like they were skating in quick sand.

Bo has like 40 pounds on EP but you wouldn’t know it when you watched them play last night
- Nucker101


True. He made his line a non factor. Time to shake it up. Spread the offence.

Pettersson was in the thick of it and showed well, didn’t shy away

Green won’t do it because of the PK.

Bo needs to play his bull game. EP does need to get stronger.

Toffoli looked terrible, zero shots and he couldn’t take or complete a pass.

The two former Kings were right at the top of the list of worst performances.

Probably but like that didn't do anything for PK last game. Pearson, Miller, Bo and Beagle good enough for PK to allow for ZacMac to factor in the line up.

Bo away from the puck goes to the net just fine, but with the puck I was disappointed in his play. I know Minny clogs you’re the net/slot but a guy like Bo has the skill, speed and size to cause chaos for their defense.

I don't think he did anything special. Hopefully showing well next game means his name shows up on the scoresheet.

Bo is always at his best when he goes to the net with or without the puck. When he tries to play a finesse game it works against him.

He didn’t shy away from the dirty areas, that in and of itself was encouraging.

He didn't shy away but he didn't fare well either. The kid needs more muscle and core strength.

I get it, he's young. However, until he proves otherwise i'll always question his ability to dominate a series.

Sure, but I take it as a positive and am of the opinion he’ll get his looks if he keeps battling.

I like the heart and his skill. I think he scores if his stick doesn't snap.

He should get there by his prime years its gravy now whatever he does bring. That's why the vets in their primes now on the team need to be driving the play.

Get stronger on his feet would help & not get his nose in there so close up against the boards . Play it more like Kane. Keep moving more. Toffoli should’ve been in there filling the role.

Meh, he's doing what a lot of lesser players are doing this time of year. He didn't force the Wild into a defensive breakdown nor back them into taking a penalty or 2. None of our top 6 did. They all need to find another gear. Petey is part of that group.
