It’s like the Boeser to Minnesota rumours because he’s from there. The way miller handles himself and the things he’s saying i don’t get that vibe one bit Boeser’s dad is ill & in declining health. I think if he has the desire to move on to a playing situation in Minny, to be closer to home, that it would be a very natural inclination. Shouldn’t be faulting him or his agent(s) for pursuing that, one bit. Edited March 6, 2022 by viking mama 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way they get out of the zone is all different - I never saw that chip off the glass play under Green They go north WAY faster under Boudreau, under Green the D would pass it back and forth a bunch of times and they'd slowly try to move it forward Forecheck under green sent in like 1 guy who would inevitably lose And I can remember 1 too many men on the ice penalty under Boudreau, we took like 6-7 that I remember under Green Lets face it - the coaching was absolutely fking horrendous 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But do folks forget just how sulky and immature his act was when things were BAD? Bo is a rock no matter what. Folks are so damn fickle. Here we are perhaps about to make a Cinderella run to the playoffs but folks on the radio are talking about how J.T. should be captain over Bo. Only in Vancouver. Bruce’s lack of tact in his interviews only fuels it. We can disagree. No one is saying Bo doesn’t perform. What is obvious though is our captain hasn’t proven to be our MVP or anywhere near it unless we are in the playoffs (which is when he definitely needs to be amongst that group). But to say he’s the passion and drive behind this team’s regular season success is entirely misguided. He’s stable, he’s not flashy, and he’s good in his role. But he doesn’t carry the team. That’s pretty obvious. Quite a few players above him in that sense. You don’t have to turn this into fans being against their captain. Not everyone feels that way. Some folks have beef with certain players and that’s totally acceptable. Bo is wearing the C, which means he should be the one to always take the team on his back. Can’t say I’ve seen too many games this season where that’s been the case. And truth be told, it isn’t just Vancouver where fans/media speculate on their captain or role players, and it has nothing to do with being fickle. It’s just observation and questioning, which is fair. It’s pro sports. It’s business. It’s not a kids Tball team. I can think of so many scenarios across pro leagues just in the past week where an NFL team’s starting/franchise QB was doubted, or the NBA where a star player is heavily critiqued as to whether they even fit. Loyalty isn’t based on keeping quiet about the team you root for. It’s about being open minded about it all, through the good and the bad, imho.

Bruce’s lack of tact in his interviews only fuels it. Miller cleaned up a lot of his turnovers. Remember those turnovers at the opposition's blue line leading to breakaways? With Miller, I think he was frustrated at himself for the turnovers. And now that he doesn't cough up the puck like that, we don't see him frustrated like he was before. I don't think we should change the captain though. Not unless we trade Bo. Edited March 6, 2022 by khay 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t say I’ve seen too many games this season where that’s been the case. In some respects, Bo is the model Capt’n. Having to speak to the press in a variety of controversial situations & deflect or take direct criticism is simply a part of that role. You are the face of the team, at all times, in all things, places & situations. Some other former-NHL-captains, like “Juvenile” Joe Thornton or Dustin Brown didn’t always fare-well or measure-up to these standards - did they? (Hand-taunts, mysogeny-in-the-dressing-room, stupid comments or penalties taken at key times that hurt their teams) Perhaps, Miller’s lack of filter makes him slightly less-suited for the scrutiny in this media-heavy role? Bo is a steadying & reliable force & entity upon the team. Face-offs & playing vs the top-players in the league, are also his bread & butter. He takes punishment or gives/out some punishment to make plays out there. Living life off ice by example - is another admirable attribute. He’s had games upon his stick in 3rd periods, OT & in shoot-outs & he has also come through for his team, big time! Just be you - JT! Gaffs, Freudian-slips, playing that high-risk/high-reward game, being a might too aggressive at times, or even if it’s expressing yourself in passionate rants on or off the ice, we love you, as well - just the way you are!

KFan Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 Man, that was so much fun. I laughed aloud a few times after Demko's scrambles. He let in 4, but the way we were outchanced, it could have been a lot worse. Defense was generally good; Hamonic being better every game and Myers doing really well. Miller, wow, being Miller, had a few turnovers, but what a leader, who with his passion, should definitely be Captain. I really like like Horvat and of course, Henrik was amazing, but it's time this team had a heavy Captain who is willing to lead with grit, energy and desire.

DeNiro Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 Still not a fan of some of those soft clears and poor turnovers but nobody can say this team isn’t giving it their all. So impressed with them sticking with it and finding a way to win. And what more can you say about Demko? The guy battles harder than any goalie I’ve seen here since maybe 06/07 Luongo. This game made me completely forget about that Devils game. Three out of four on a road trip? Hell yeah! Boys deserve some cold ones after that one. Hopefully Boudreau gives them a pass to let loose tonight. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
