Roster depth doesn't cover up for injured great players. Lose one of Demko, Petey, Miller, or Hughes and our chances of winning go into the toilet in the playoffs. Especially if it's Hughes. Miller is the one guy you can skip there. In playoffs Horvat, Motte, Petey etc will show what it means. They got experiance now. They only need deep roster that Can help them. Many here is blinded by numbers and don' t see what actually happens. I can admit that Miller has now a better confidence and tries things he didn't before like the goal he made after dekeing. That' s one side i've seen a lot from Petey but not Miller. Hell, even Loui would thrive being around Boudreau.

higgyfan Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 17 minutes ago, Timråfan said: I base my judgement on how Miller have played the games I've seen. . Most of those games have Miller taking advantage of Hughes coming on left side and Miller don't involve the best player on the team, Petey(here I can say that Hughes might be the best for now as he is really good taking the puck into OZ) Change Miller to Petey and Petey would have more points than Miller. So for me it's very easy. Let Miller and Petey change side and you'll see what I'm talking about. If we had a player line Shea Theodore on the right side Petey would have a chance also. . I wouldn't have bothered with Petey's points if I haven't seen with my own eyes how Miller got an advantage on the left side. So you didn't get the "favourite hockey player is your countryman" right. Miller isn't on Pete's line, so I assume you are talking about the PP. You do know that the Canucks have PP coach that decides who plays wherever on it. Your strange obsession toward Miller is a bit odd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then you have that Petey hasn't Hughes in his back as Miller has. So it's not only the PP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of cap, age, contention windows and opportunity cost. We don’t need to get younger, we are already pretty young, I would like to see a top six vetern not at the cost of Miller horvat or Petterson Edited March 13, 2022 by AlphaNuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you understand that I want roster depth before playoffs? Do you think we have roster depth for a playoff run now? Don’t you understand that you control nothing at all regarding the Vancouver Canucks and that it is not your choice and you cannot will your thinking patterns unto the team and they’ll abide? We have the team to go deep in the playoffs yes. The idea that you shouldn’t try until you have a sure bet Cup team is completely asinine. It just doesn’t work that way.

Again, that’s usually overpayment tho. Exactly. It's a route I'd prefer not using for too many key pieces. Better to use that tool to fill in role/depth players. 4 minutes ago, AlphaNuck said: We don’t need to get younger, we are already pretty young, I would like to see a top six vetern not at the cost of Miller horvat or Petterson We do on D.

J-Dizzle Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 So if the Ave’s put Landeskog on LTIR does that move them into the fray? I’m still in the ‘I’d rather keep Miller’ camp, but IF we’re gonna move him something around Byram and Newhook could be compelling…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
