D. Moore has actually played really well for this team. I have no complaints about him. However, the team would have been so much better off if Sather could have dumped Boyle for at least a pick. It is painfully obviously he is slow and doesn't fit in on this team.
of all the players on this team, has to be the biggest disappointment, and its really hard to explain cause what do you really expect from him.... supposed to be a big faceoff guy, is he? is he an offensive threat in front of net? are opposing teams threatened by his physical appearance? what other team would be interested?
boyle is boyle, everybody realized this dude is a pussy.... he is big but tough, he isn't the right dude to be in front of the net as he doesn't have that magical presese of players like john leclair, mark rechi who when are in front of the net can do some big damage. He is what he is he is a face off 4th liner who plays the PK if need to be. I have no idea how he got 20 goals that season but he won't do that again. Don't expect much from him. it is what it is if he gets 10 goals be happy
Sather's biggest fault lately has been holding onto players like Boyle and not moving them for 2's, 3's or 4's. The organization found lots of players that made the team by stock piling extra 2's, 3's and 4's. They don't seem to do that any longer. If Sather is banking on Boyle to pull another rabbit out of the hat in the playoffs with his play, he's wasted.
