CBJ claim Darryl Boyce

Off waivers

"@smitchcd: #CBJ claim C Darryl Boyce off waivers from #Leafs."

Looks like we'll need warm bodies.

You'll like him. He's not all that skilled, but pretty good defensively; good at screening goalies, and hella tough. He broke his nose twice last season playing for us, including the gruesome nostril through the photographers hole.

This move makes Nash expendable. /sarcasm

Seriously though, he's a pretty tough guy who makes a decent 4th liner. As a Leafs and (primarily) Jackets fan, I'm alright with this.

Nice, Good pick up for CBJ, Boyce doesn't have top 6 talent, but he is very versatile, defensively responsible, hard working 4th liner who can fill in the 3rd liner role very well if needed.

I would much prefer Lombardi, Armstrong, and Crabb on the waivers before I let go off Boyce. U guys won't be dissapointed with Boyce, will play his heart out and this move allows Phalsson to be expendable.

I like him already. Actually if this is the direction we're heading (more character and whatnot) I'll be a happy camper.

Love Boyce. So will you guys. He will fight, he hits, he works hard. He'll block shots with reckless abandon. If we didnt have warm bodies making 3+ million ahead of him, Boyce probably would never have been waived.

Hes a good PK'er too. Our AHL club's coach loved him on the PK.

Boyce sounds like a DMac or Boll type of player. Pahlsson and/or DMac are on their way out.

Heart and soul 4th liner who will give it everything he has. His nose got destroyed and was right back the next game.

Warning this picture of his injury is gross http://larrybrownsports.com/wp-conte...boyce-nose.jpg

His face went into a camera hole in the glass

Congrats on the pick up. As a Leafs fan I hate to see him go.

Maybe Boll is on his way out. This guy seems like he fits Boll's role more than anything.

Boyce seems like a more versatile Boll - he can fight, but also play on the PK and play center.

could be. I see it more to address a Pahlson trade. Way too early to interpret much (but here goes) but if the idea is to pick up intangibles of the kind Carter lacked, Boll fits.

The fact that there are as many Leaf posters on this thread as BJ posters should show you guys something. Boyce is never going to score 20 goals for you, but this is a great pick up for Columbus. Boyce is a warrior. Sad to see him go.

Leafs fans are saying the same thing that Sens fans said in the offseason about Cody Bass, hopefully Boyce will work out, though

Couldnt this make Pahlsson expendable? Pahlsson somewhere for a 3rd rounder??

Boyce could play 3rd or 4th line. So its a possibility.
