Lots of trained people from BC go to Calgary I’ve noticed. But since the down turn in industry the skilled workers are coming back home. BC could never pay those kind of oil money wages. Housing is market in Calgary is down too, very surprised to see what you can buy a house there for now compared to 5 years ago. I love that Vancouver and southern BC is leading the clean tech charge in Canada. Or I guess it seems that way to me. Let’s face it, BC is an amazing province, and I get why people want to migrate here. But man, housing prices in souther BC can take a hike…I’ll never be able to afford to retire anywhere down in southern BC anymore…for crying out load people are selling homes in Williams lake for over half a mil now…nuts.

For the record, Petey started off with 66 points in each his first 2 seasons I agree, We will see him return to form. Already seeing a slow turnaround in him, sometimes it takes these young players a few seasons how to rise above the challenge…when all other teams in the nhl study game tape on you and figure out how to shut you down you gotta rise another level, and keep adding things to your game…that’s the big difference between an elite level player and a regular nhler…I’ve seen so many rookies come out have a good season or two, then teams figure them out, and they can never reach that height again, they become great pros but not elite…I don’t think Petey is in that territory, he has the smarts and the will to get over the hump.

I think because the rest of Canada gets snow in winter and Vancouver doesn’t so they take it out on us haha. Winnipeg is the only place that has love for Canucks, because they had their farm team there for several seasons. I wear my Canucks gear all over Alberta and get hassled non stop. I love it. They hate green and blue there, like badly. I have a home in NS. NS is Bruins/Mtl territory, too polite to say much but if looks were daggers I'd be dead a hundred times over I drive cross country there and back and I love seeing folks look at my Canucks sticker and then turn and stare at me to see if I'm real 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that line of him Garland and Pearson, i feel like him and Garland mesh well together, and Tanner is a strong guy who can win get these guys the puck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Don't look now, but Petey has 8 points in his last 5 games. Now if we could only find a way to have him, Boeser, Horvat, and Demko all going at the same time... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without Miller it's possible Petey would have at least 50p more under the period Miller has been here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I follow. Are you insinuating that Miller has been harmful to Petey's production? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, because the attacking went down on left side where Hughes feeded primarely Miller and Boeser. With Petey mostly stationtationary on right side. Under Green it was a pain to see Petey locked on the right side while the action was on the left side. Petey is a creative player so to have a coach telling him to stay put is very harming. If I had all games available and time I would love to put forward a film demonstrating what I said. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
