    If I recall, Kyper spoke more on a country club culture. This reads as a negative atmosphere. I got laughed at when I said it's no coincidence that Boeser has sort of fallen off since Miller has gotten there. Miller seems like a guy that's hard to be around. I been saying this for 3 years. The team is constantly on edge cause the angry guy can go off at any moment or start openly pouting on the ice. But I kept getting told I was wrong and Miller is exactly the player we need. Now people are starting to catch up on my suspicions. And we are hearing more about how it's creating a terrible lockerroom from media types. I can't wait for people to say our team is just soft. Is Schenn soft? Cause he clearly has a problem with Miller too.

     

    JT Miller is what CDC thinks Torts is. Yet very few people hold Miller accountable. They just say "he is passionate about winning." As if that gives him clearance to be a douchebag. Ryan Miller was passionate about winning, but he cared about the team. He was ready to go to war for young Stecher. JT Miller doesn't seem like the type to put anyone above himself. Move him for a bucket of pucks and a couple autographed Bedard sticks.

    I wish I could emofi the F out of this, get JT gone.....pleeeeease!

    Boy, the " JR and PA have done nothing to improve this team" crowd has been awfully quiet this week. 

     

    Kuzmenko, Bear, Mikheyev, Lazar, Aman, Joshua have all contributed and been key players the last 3 games. Safe to say the above narrative, was and is a willfully ignorant take on things. 

     

    The team not playing well was never a "who they added or didn't add" problem. It was bigger and more complicated than that, most knew that, likely a mix of different factors. The roster has talent, always did. Does the blue line still need some work? Absolutely it does, but people have to understand you don't overhaul a blueline all in one off season, especially with cap constraints, multiple dmen already being aid big money and good defenseman at an absolute premium.  Something wasn't right, and understandably some people always need someone to blame. But IMO blaming JR and PA was a lazy avenue to take. Once this team starts playing well like they have will these same people give JR and PA any credit? Guess we'll see......

     

    With Burroughs playing well, Bear getting more comfortable the blueline doesn't look nearly as bad as it did....but it's far from great we know that. I thought that was one of OEL's best games this year too - eye test wise. 

     

     

    I still maintain we should trade Miller.  He is a hugely polarizing figure, when things are good, hes great, but when things arent going right, he seems to compound the issue.
