Plum Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Is this feature After Hours? Are they bringing it back? I guess it sort of is. Forgot how good After Hours were, looking like they'll keep it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Yes, but he allows two game winning goals in crunch time. Miller doesn't do that. and combined 93% What does that even mean? Oh. Cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canorth Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I'm not trolling anything. I'm stating that it's sad how posters like you somehow blame Miller when he saved 93% of his shots, saved a HUGE breakaway, and not blame an inept offense whatsoever. Lack is 2-6 this year. PLEASE QUOTE ME - Please find were I said that! I am wondering why for Miller to be good Lack has to be Bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PistolPete13 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 It pisses me off how Vancouver fans all become goalie coaches. FOR F"S SAKE IF YOU HAVENT PLAYED THE POSITION YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH HARDER MENTALLY IT IS THAN BEING A PLAYER. All your mistakes usually end up in the net and on the score board while when players make a mistake it usually leads to nothing. STOP BEING SO HARD ON THE GOALIES. I bet you wouldn't last half a game in net Amen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I say the name Canorth? But I do find it amusing that you constantly bash Miller (which I've seen). What do you think is the better idea?

oldnews Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I can't think of another hockey city maybe Toronto that goes after their own goalie after a win and only 2 goals against making over 93% of the saves regardless of how the goal went in.. If we lost then maybe.. But wow some canucks fans are almost as bad as the laffs fan if not worse Philly, Montreal, actually a lot of markets are hard on their goaltenders. But let's not put too much lipstick on it. Miller struggled tonight. He was pretty shaky at times - not just on the goals, and despite the sv%, he wasn't really tested a great deal with the exception of the huge save he made on Monahan.. He battled through it though - he came up with the big save to prevent this game from going full south though, and there will be games where your goaltender needs his team to pull it out for him. It's just that he hasn't given the team a chance to win for a few starts, so folks are hoping to see a bounce back performance and the team hasn't really been able to bail him out in those past few starts either. So that was a huge win in both senses. And all in all, I personally don't really mind seeing the Lames get a point out of that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down by the River Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 My Bio12 teacher told us that if we inhale and exhale rapidly and then have someone push on our chest, you will pass out. He told us never to try it. Needless to say, we tried it. What happened to Hansen could have been due to something similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireGillis Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 What I'm saying is there's a reason Miller has won most of his games. If the game is tight, he does not allow in a game-winning goal typically. He's great in crunch time. Yeah the reason why miller has won most of his games is because of the canucks offense at the start of the year and the creampuff schedule he's had. He has 4 wins vs the oilers. He beat the oilers twice 5-4. That whole oh he let in 4 goals, but didn't let in the 5th so he's clutch defense is so dumb. If he didn't let in 4 goals in the first place then the team wouldn't need to score 5 and his "clutchness" of not letting in the 5th wouldn't even matter. You not recognizing how poorly he's played this year is just a reflection of you only stat watching his wins instead of looking at what's really going on. It's like how the analytics showed last year the leafs were due for a collapse. Look at what happened to miller once the offense started to dry up. He stopped winning so much. He played ok today, not great, but won again because the canucks scored 3 goals with the help of the flames own goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canorth Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Where have I bashed Lack? I have watched Lack since he got called up. He doesn't tend to make the save when it's needed most from what I have seen. That's my opinion. He's a great back-up. I don't think he will thrive as a starter. You can not be serious?

4thLineGrinder Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 i thought miller played well people are just watching him for his flaws right now at thats all they seem to be able to see "how dare he make a miraculous save that lets out a rebound" like it would better for the original shot to go in, our defense didnt do him any favors acting perfect screens on both cow town goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Fig Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Yes, but he allows two game winning goals in crunch time. Miller doesn't do that. and combined 93% What does that even mean? 1. He crapped the bed in Toronto and fell down 4-0....the game never made it to crunch-time because he wouldn't let it, even though the Canucks easily out-played the Leafs. And I'll assume you didn't see the Detroit game 6 days earlier? 2. It means in the 2 games his save % was 93% there genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
