I think he’s going to be traded this off-season. I would not the least bit surprised if he doesn’t come back. The team’s just going to have a new point producer next season. But I don’t think it’ll be Miller. My gut keeps telling me that he ain’t going to take a discount to play on this team in Canada, when he can be paid quite handsomely back in the States and be back ‘home’.
Petey is going to overtake Miller in terms of offensive prowess eventually, I think.
He’s already lights years ahead offensively at the same age, aren’t they? Miller hasn’t really come to his own until maybe this year? What kind of player is Petey going to be at the same age?
Yeah, that could be broken. Wouldn’t be surprised if Halak’s done for the season.
Man, down the stretch, winning 6 games in a row - lose so many bodies. Of course this happens to us. Of course.
Goddamn hockey gods
It’s looking more and more unlikely. I mean, if L.A. runs the table on their schedule, I don’t think we get in.
And it’s possible that they could do that as well.
It’s true that some fans will be happy and some will be upset no matter Allvin does. No win situation. He just has to do what he thinks and feels is the right thing to do for the franchise moving forward. Players are always short-sighted. They don’t care about the future, they care about now. Management’s job is to secure the future while remaining competitive now. There’s tension always between management and their players because their goals aren’t always aligned. I can see why management would want to resign Miller - they also want to win, and they know that their current group of players also want to win.
Any sources on Maurice liking Vancouver before taking the job with the Jets?
I see. Well, COVID and the bubble year took a toll on everyone. But then again, he did have to live in Winnipeg…Soooooo
Yeah. Benning’s pro evaluation was/is terrible. Gave Brock too much. Not sure what his rationale was behind Boeser’s last contract that would set him up for a QO of 7.5M for his upcoming deal. Made little sense.
Anyways, Benning’s gone. Thank God.
Maybe Brock’s time is coming to an end as well in green and blue threads.
Oh well. Better to get something in return for him before losing him for nothing.
