If you want to go back to a North Stars comparison for Boldy I'd suggest Tom McCarthy. Same size and skill level, though Boldy is by far a better 2 way player.dino parked himself in front of the net taking a beating to score goals , parise has tried that. i don't see caufield doing anything similar. caufield kinda zips around the ice looking for an open spot. just my one cent. boldy reminds me of a more talented coyle. (what coyle should have been) maybe caufield is similar to theo fleury or st louis
I seem to recall McCarthy being in the top 10 in scoring more than once. If Boldy can match that he'll be quite the find. That Smith, Payne, McCarthy line was lethal.If you want to go back to a North Stars comparison for Boldy I'd suggest Tom McCarthy.

He's got an NCAA tournament to play in still.Get this kid in quarantine and called up.
My bad. Thought they were out due to the loss in Big East tournament.He's got an NCAA tournament to play in still.
As a NHLer, Dino seemed to score a lot of dirty goals around the net. I dont remember him being strictly a perimeter scorer like Caufield is.
lol right?!Guerin does good: duh, it was the obvious decision. Good on him for doing his job
Guerin does bad: Fire him
I mean... this is kind of a "just do your job" sort of signing, no? I'm not sure how much easier it gets than signing your best prospect to an ELC.Guerin does good: duh, it was the obvious decision. Good on him for doing his job

Sure, but he could’ve been pushing to get him on an ATO and people would’ve flipped out.I mean... this is kind of a "just do your job" sort of signing, no? I'm not sure how much easier it gets than signing your best prospect to an ELC.
I'll try (and mostly fail) to avoid micro-analyzing what happens between a GM and an agent, but pushing to get him on an ATO for this year does seem like it's overthinking things. Overthink guys like McBain and Warren; sign Boldy, burn the year and make him feel important, because he is.Sure, but he could’ve been pushing to get him on an ATO and people would’ve flipped out.
Because pushing for an ATO from a player like Boldy would be an example of a GM doing his job poorly.Sure, but he could’ve been pushing to get him on an ATO and people would’ve flipped out.

And credit to Guerin, that seems to be what he did.
Yeah I don’t disagreeATO's aren't very realistic for a prospect of Boldy's stature. You either sign him to an ELC and play him immediately or you don't. Even Hardman got an ELC and reported to Chicago's taxi squad straight away.
you should probably get your hearing checkedThis can't be real. All I've heard is there is no chance this happens because Guerin is a terrible GM.
