Yes, please and league minimum 1 year

Would explain too why Borgstrom was sent down

Interesting. Would be a nice pickup for the faceoff circle and defensive depth. Hopefully he doesn’t get off to a slow start

 

[GrumpyKelly]

Hopefully he has some legs left. Really liked him a few years back.


Borg spends a year in the ahl and Boyle adds depth to the bottom six. Acciari has shown he can move up and down the lineup and easily take the third line C if Malgin breaks/slows down like he has before.

Grit! Veteran knowhow! Protect Barky (who still needs the toughness firmware upgrade). Yes, please.

 

[Mogo]

18 goals
50%+ faceoffs
last season

Will stand in front of the net
Will stand up for team mates
Great veteran leader



Thats from April 2019

Sounds like a good move.

nice

it's most likely a better fit for the bottom six than Borg at this point

 

[Ryuji Yamazaki]

Absolutely great signing!

Dale is killing it this offseason/season.

 

[Gentle Man]

So Barkov is not ok.

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

So Barkov is not ok.

Or it is hopefully because Borg isnt NHL ready and Q doesnt like Hawk

 

[RainingRats]

So Barkov is not ok.

Don’t think that’s necessarily true. Barkov supposedly skating at next practice. Borg needs to be better so he’s sent down. More of a Borg upgrade than a Barkov stop gap, imo

 

[IceManCat]

Great we've needed bottom six help for years now. Another solid defensive player

 

[MillarWithASave]

This is a great signing in my opinion.

 

[MintyFresh88]

Not sure about that...Borg was sent down so it’s a lateral move in terms of positions. If Barkov was out for awhile, you’d think they’d be keeping Borg up AND adding Boyle.

What’s not to like about Jayce?

 

[Gentle Man]

I'd trade Borg for Honka

The roster seems to need a move like this.

Hard to complain about this, cheap quality veteran add.

 

[TheImpatientPanther]

Would think this is more Borgstrom needs more time in SPR no?
Malgin will play against softer teams and BB against the bigger grittier teams.

Re-sign Tallon! For the Q hire and all the free agent signings who are playing pretty well so far.

Hard to argue who's been better out of Stralman, Acciari and Connolly so far. Now he adds another vet with playoff experience on the cheap. Atta boy Dalè

Hopefully.

At this point, I'd really call dallas and do a Borg for Honka swap.

Confirmed “minor injury” according to Tallon

 

[Howboutthempanthers]

We need size in the worst way IMO. I mean, that was big problem against Colorado IMO. We need some grit from the size, too. So yes please.
