He's lacking a ton of confidence and common sense. I swear he looks like a talented Mark Stuart at times.
Agree, plus he is injury prone.

actually I remember hearing from one of the coaches that Bogo was one of those players that are able to play whole game because his conditioning was so good.I'm guessing flexibility would be the biggest issue but I'm sure the trainers who do this as a profession are on top of it.I think Maurice will have a plan for Bogo. Bogo likely focuses his training on strength, and power, but less on conditioning which may lead to some of the injury problems he has had. I would think that Bogo is in the BIG group of guys that needs work on their conditioning. Same with Troubs.
I think TNSE is excited for the future with fitter guys, who are coached well, and play a up tempo pressure game. Bogosian skating ability will serve him well there.
IMO, TNSE is wanting to see how Bogo and many of the other guys (Buff, Kane) plays after a full year with Mo, before we write them off or trade them.

I plan to do a numbers piece on Bogo in the coming weeks. I have had some interesting preliminary findings.

I could buy that. He deferred to Toby a lot.I have a theory* on Bogo - be curious if it jives with your findings
*needs to be primary puck mover and actually have fewer options available to him
also see alot of Phanuef issues where they are trying to turn a PMD/OD into a Shutdown D
By GM simulation league do you mean NHL 14 or something else? Once I learn what type of league it is I will offer advice.
I am concerned about him. Definite step back. Plus guys who work out too much often become injury prone.

Which is odd because for whatever reason Toby seems to play better alongside more risk taking defensemen like Buff and trouba.
Enstrom is actually an overrated puck mover. His go-to move under pressure is to spin back and pin the puck against the boards, which only serves to delay the turnover. He is a smart player when he has time, but he certainly can't (or doesn't try to) get out of trouble like Buff or Trouba can.
I agree Bogo deferred to Enstrom on the breakout way too much. I think skating the puck up ice more will help him gain back his confidence, as would staying healthy and being able to play his physical game. Personally, I'd like to see Trouba with Enstrom and Bogosian with Clitsome (or someone other than Enstrom or Stuart) next year.
I'd love to see Bogo next to a guy like Methot or Hamhuis.
i think he would still be our Bogo regardless of this
Yeah, a good number #2, or excellent #3/4. Which is what he is right now.

he certainly isin't #2, especially after this season. lets be honest...
Bogo's a #5-#6 D man on any playoff calibre team. Best years were year two in the NHL and Jets inaugural season. Pretty inconsistent career.

He played at that level or very close to it when paired with Enstrom and getting 23 plus minutes a night. Sorry, I don't agree with some people here that want to go all chicken little with Bogo on every little mistake. People should watch more hockey than just the Jets and this years playoffs is a great example of very good defensemen making boneheaded plays, but getting bailed out by their goalie. Bogo became a whipping boy here for some this year, and no matter what good he would do, people just loved to herp and derp about him in GDT's.
Bogo would be a solid middle pair guy on more than half of the current playoff teams IMO.
Yea we need Zach to stay healthier and sure he is not Doughty or Pietrangelo but as usual our board is over reacting to Bogo’s drop in production this season. Zach is a very solid top 4 NHL defender "as is" over his sample size in Winnipeg. I agree with your sentiment on watching other playoff teams and games and even the best of the best are getting their pants pulled down allot. To defend is to get embarrassed at some point.
