Thread: Brian Boyle has 5 goals.

I still remember he was on a hot streak and what did the Kings do...they send him to Manchester....?!?

Yes kid was a bit lazy and unmotivated sometimes but doing that doesnt help either.

Both are guilty, both Boyle and the Kings.

He's now playing in New York and I hope he will succeed. I always liked him.

End of story.

You also said Brown had one of the hardest slapshots on this team and that one of Stoll was weak.

Brian Boyle was the prime penalty killer in college with Boston. He even played defense. He's not a defensive liability.

I think you need a vacation.

Boyle is a liability, and must be traded-oh yeah, never mind.

i don't want to see the guy fail, but...

Boyle is in his 3rd full season and will be 26-years old in about a month, and has so far been unable to work his way off the 4th line to the point that rookie Derek Stepan averages more minutes a night than Brian does.

the only things the Kings may be guilty of are drafting a project like Boyle in order to assemble their 'dream line' in the first place, and not dumping his ass after failing to listen to reason when he refused to turn pro when the pros said he needed to.

It is pretty funny to look at the projected point totals for the full season and see 31G, 0A, 31 points next to Boyle's name.

That would be quite a stat at the end of the year.

He was more concerned about winning a national championship and forgot why he was drafted by an NHL hockey team. Taylor should have moved him while his stock was high after his junior season at BC.

Now that was a ying and yang deal.

I guess the team heard me. Now Brown has more goals and Stoll has as many.

But Boyle still has more than Smyth, Kopitar, Simmonds, Zus, and Poni.

I think it's quite obvious that the Kings should trade Smyth, Kopi, Simmer, Zeus, and Poni for Boyle. They'll probably have to throw in Bernier too if you want to land an elite talent like Boyle. Do it Deano!!!
