    Beauvillier is an interesting one, and I can see why the team took him back in the Horvat trade. Heā€™s obviously not a centre, but helps offset some of what they lost in Bo.

    Couple years younger than Bo, left shot, decent goal scoring ability (averaged ~18 goals/82 over his career).

    It wouldnā€™t surprise me if heā€™s able to replace ~2/3 of Horvats offence for ~1/2 the AAV next year.

    >ā€As a team, I think we can turn a lot of heads. We have the right pieces and I believe we have what it takes. Iā€™m not the only one excited on our team. I feel like everyone is looking forward to the season.ā€

    Miller said this last week, Beau this week. We know Boeser reaffirmed his want to stay, Hughes and Petey will be one year older (and stronger), etc.

    If Demko stays healthy, we keep or improve our 12th best SA/GP, and drastically improve our PK, we should be a playoff team

    Good to know he likes it here and thinks itā€™s a good fit, but heā€™s also a UFA next season and itā€™s interesting that we havenā€™t heard anything about a potential extension.

    If they think heā€™s part of the long-term plan it would probably be smarter to sign him between now and December before he has a career year playing with Petey and Kuzy or next summer heā€™s gonna ask for a lot of money or go to FA and we lose him for nothing
