His being here is not just about points. Its about having someone passionate, willing to install a combative , emotional energy in his game for others younger than him to play as hard as they can in their own style. How do you follow quiet leadership ? .. with apprehensions. How do you follow a fiery leadership? .. all guns blazing.

[Rumour] Canucks getting calls on Thatcher Demko
SilentSam replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I’d like to see Silovs come up for a few games.…. Depending on the needs and contention for the Team in Abby , that might be the only issue. -
It’s a huge distraction for any one else.. Miller handles the press well. Making EP or Hughes Captain now will mess up their game.. they’re kids in comparison. and I’ll add this , making Bo Captain when he did was too early in his career.. I think he would have developed into a total different and better player had Gillis been able to get Shane Doan here for that “captaincy experience” with Bo. “Captain Canada “ had the same qualities as our very own “ Captain Canuck” ( Smyl ) had.

LARGER THAN LIFE PERSONALITY?? why , because he is a good interview? I think your manifesting his good qualities and thinking their negative in a room ?? He has been the only true leader on this team since he arrived. Has openly praised the young players he is with,. raved about Podz and the type of player he is. Bo has been here 9 years, quiet , soft, and a career year before his UFA contract. I’ve never seen him praise a teammate , without something short and cliche. Thats soft culture, Thats negative value.. and a declining asset.

I’m pretty sure we are on the correct path of changing the culture here,. Bo was apart of the softness. Miller is a complete hockey player, and an identity for the young core to create their own Drive with .. Thats why he is here for at least 3 more years,. because it’s a crucial time to establish that culture.. and get it back to the years of Kurtenbach , Smyl, and Linden.

Then they risk waiting tooo long and miss an opportunity that was previously there. Timing is as much a factor . as is player availability. … and what risk is the buyer taking. I think we did remarkably well for 2C having a career season, during his 9th year in the NHL. Thanks Bo, what took you so long? my prediction is this : RATY will be our BEST centerman ( 1C ) inside 3 full seasons.
