The Sens were deliberate in acquiring a roster player in the Mike Hoffman trade, but that roster player was Mikkel Boedker who’s developed a bit of a reputation for disappointing. He scored 51 points between the Avalanche and Coyotes in 2015-16, but has put up 26- and 37-point seasons with the Sharks. Will he top 40 points for the Sens? Bonus: how many points will he score?
Spencer: I think Boedker will be forced further up the lineup than he should be, due to a lack of experience and a coach who loves his veterans.
