Im sure many people have heard the rumor, but just incase I have a friend who works at The Score here in Toronto and he tells me we were apparently trying to do a Boyes for Kovalev trade. So at least the Blues seem to be shopping him.

I'm not sure...Boyes is a headache on the ice but not off of it. Kovalev is both. But it's your classic 'needs a change of scenery' for 'needs a change of scenery' trade.

Adjusted for games played, Pietrangelo is out-producing Boyes right now.
Jus' sayin...

I'm sick and tired of Boyes. He brings nothing to the table. I don't even care if he makes big $$ or not. That doesn't bother me since it's not my money and we're not in cap trouble. He's not particularly good at anything, certainly not scoring. His last goal was a (virtual) empty netter/garbage goal. The net was 100% open and he roofed it, nearly missing high.
The last interview he gave that I saw was before the Wings game and he had about as much intensity in his words and expression as a turtle. I remember last year I think, they did a piece on him buying a house here and he had a big fancy BBQ grill that was missing a part. He fixed it himself as well as other little things in his house. Hey, Mr. fix-it. Fix your goddamn head. Your "skillz" have been crap for 100+ games and I would honestly rather have Janssen playing more minutes.
Boyes is 100% invisible out there. He looked really good for about a week, when he netted about 75% of his total points, and has been completely useless the rest of the year. And all of last year.

I know this is a ridiculous measure for success, but when do you think we'll see an offensive player on the Blues who cracks the top 50 scorers list?
next year probably
That's the running answer to 99% of Blues fans questions and/or concerns about the team.
There's a reason for that. They have done a really good job putting pieces in place, building from within. This wasn't the year they were expected to become a Cup contender.
