Byram wasn't part of my initial post...
I only mentioned Byram because YOU keep mentioning him. And i still don't understand why.
Funny how you and nobody else was even talking about Byram, but his detractors found a way to bring him up again, even though he's not even on the team anymore.
I like the part about knowing the actuality of a 22 year old defenseman that's played less than 2 regular seasons's worth of games
It's also just not supported by the facts whatsover that Bo doesn't care about defense, and only selfishly cares about offense.
This is a guy who focused on defense at the expense of offense his entire last year in junior.
This is a guy who focused on defense in a top pairing role at the WJC and then even though he dominated the last game with the puck, he literally cried on the ice when the team didn't win Gold.
This is a guy who shook his head and laughed when Cale said he'd break Avs records like him one day.
This is a guy who focused on defense the entire Stanley Cup run, helped shut down McDavid, Draisailt, Stamkos, and Kucherov and many believed was the best defenseman in the finals because of his defense.
This is a guy who was visibly upset with himself when he’d make a defensive mistake or turnover that lead to a goal this year.
There’s literally nothing to support that he doesn’t care about defense, excpet a false narrative, and certainly not less than Girard or Makar, who have their own troubles defensively, are just as aggressive and risky with their game, and might have been even more so than Byram this year.
