This is a great point. The kid is still a kid and has upside to continue to develop. We need to bring Chara in to coach him up! (As a coach, not a player.)

Maybe a 1st round pick?
Beau might thrive elsewhere. Sometimes a change of scenery is good both ways. He seems like a nice guy and a likeable teammate. I'd root for him if he got dealt but he isn't flourishing here. Maybe it IS time to put him with Barzal and see what happens

It's time for a retool. These forwards are done. Our future GM needs to make everyone except for Dobson and Sorokin available .
Definitely a bit of an underreaction.
Dobson and Sorokin need to be made available too...

Just ask for Xhekaj for 2 reason:
1. So we can hear Butch attempt to pronounce it
2. To make Rangers fans cry more when they’re players get injured from clean hits (Martin on Trouba 2.0)

Please!
Hard to know if you're serious with this comment. Just what the Habs need, another French Canadian left winger who has never lived up to his promise.
Jonathan Drouin. Part Deux.

I'll take the 2023 2nd and Filip Mesar from the Canadians and call it a day. Holmstrom gets a shot.

I get why we would want to do it but I don't know why they would. In the immortal words of George W. Bush, "Fool me once, shame on - shame on you. Fool me - you can't get fooled again."

I like The Who's version better!
Ahh, but the ability to speak French is worth an extra pick!

So he doesn’t try to elbow anyone in the head? I’d pass on that. Romanov and Mayfield both play physical enough and costs less combined. Plus Trouba at best is a middle pairing guy who’s basically lucking out with Fox and Miller.

I feel we need someone with the "I don't give a sh*it, and what are you gonna do about it" nasty edge but that's just me
Most of the problems with Beau is Lou paid him, asuming he would get much better. Most players do not get much better. Is Bailey, Martin, Barazel, or ciskas ever been constantly better than their 3rd season? The problem with paying guys 4 million who score 18 goals a year, is when they struggle in some seasons now yoirpaying guys 4 million for 15 goals.

Some players will improve but I agree wholeheartedly that paying players on their potential or perceived potential is foolhardy.

Beauvillier’s game has completely fallen off a cliff. He’s always been inconsistent but this is a new low. Time for a change of scenery.
Somehow there will still be people saying he’s poised for a breakout year next season.

and point to his playoff success which is getting further and further in the rear view

Getting outscored by Dobson and Pelech, tied for points with Pulock.
Just puts into perspective how bad he is that he's been leapfrogged by a defensemen three years younger and a two defensive defensemen.
I've been beating this drum since last season.

So disappointed. Kid just has not reached the level we hoped. Was a game breaker these past playoffs. Maybe he should call Keith Hernandez for the weekend.
