EP-40 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 https://www.sportsnet.ca/650/the-playbook/j-t-miller-teams-going-really-good-hockey-team/ Seems like a team first guy, solid on the puck. I think we got a really good player on a good contract. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanuck Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Like I said in the other thread, he's saying all the right things. He's got a real opportunity to be a 'go-to' guy here and make an impact over and above what he did in TB/NY. He's going to see a lot of prime ice time here. It's up to him from this point. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said he likes to hunt. The memories of Booth come up. It's not the hunting either, it's Booth. JTM is way better than Booth 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post kingofsurrey Posted June 24, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2019 (edited) Talk is cheap. Lets wait and see what he brings next season. He better be ready to go as the club will need what he brings... Would love to see some of the older gritty players meet with Loui E and tell him to wind his head in and start to give a crap..

JTM is way better than Booth Booth was a good guy, just unfortunate with injuries it seems. I agree I have much higher expectations of J.T. (I just had to check and it stands for Jonathan Tanner if anyone is wondering) 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is our leaders (the new Bo led group) are all young. We still have Edler, but do we see him as a guy that would take Loui out to the woodshed? Loui was supposed to be a leader too. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was giving away the 1st to TB that hurt. I'm usually a wait and see kind of guy, but in this case, Miller has to produce and help get the Canucks into the playoffs within 2 years, otherwise the Canucks lost this trade bad. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker 67 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Haven't been able to listen yet. Did he talk about leaving a President's trophy winning team and Cup contender to a Canadian team spinning its wheels in futility? Did he talk about losing tax diollars by leaving Florida? Hope he likes the rain lol Welcome JT! I am being sarcastic and a little silly for fun, because in interviews like this, the players are always trying to say the right things, not what they really feel. Sometimes their joy is pure and genuine. Like Subban's reaction to going to NJ. There is a heep of pressure on this guy to perform and produce in VAN. Canucks fans know what they gave up for him. If he turns out great and he excels on Pettersson's line and they make the playoffs, then I will cheer this trade big time. Until then, I am skeptical.

If LE isn’t traded he’s going to have a fire under his ass both from the dressing room reaction to his commentary and to prove he’s not a third liner....wouldn’t surprise me at all if he had a bounce back year where he gives it 120% ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Crossbar Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Nice interview. I didn't get the feeling he was trying to say the right things. Seemed like he was answering honestly. Like how he knows his game, what he's learned about his roles, where he sees improvement, and his confidence in the young players already on the team. Thought he also expanded well on his transition game. Looking forward to hearing more from him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His most candid moment was saying he kind of lost his voice because when he found out he got traded he was at a bachelor party in Vegas lol He also acknowledged he played on a team with elite players and gave that as a reason for his mild drop in production (less ice time, different role). he seems poised and looking forward to having a chance at a bigger role Edited June 24, 2019 by Chicken. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philthy Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 (edited) He almost dropped as many ''you know's" as Bobby Bortuzzo did in his Spittin Chiclets podcast. Edited June 24, 2019 by Boone Jenner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brovat Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I like that he loves Vancouver as a city. The part where he said when they came up on a road trip they always got to spend a few days (being from an Eastern team) and that he loved coming out. I like this guy. Seems like a student of the game and is very well spoken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to go ahead and make the reasonable assumption that you therefore didn't really listen. That's your prerogative - but you thereby also really have noting to say. I'll take the guy who show excitement and enthusiasm over the one that pouts over being dealt from a contender, anyday. That may be 'cheap' but I'll take it.
