No depth on an already weak blue line with injuries mounting. And we are at the cap. Lol. What a mess. Blueline hasn't even been the problem. The PP has taken its turn to sink our season, half of our great fwd depth doesn't care enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His personality is one of a competitor who hates to lose. Nope. If he didn't care he'd likely be closer to home by now...he saw something here in this team and wants to win with them. Agree with you, But Miller and a few other top players need to pull their heads out of their asses and get going before it is too late. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, he has actively been a major part of the reason we're starting the season 0-2. He needs to be better, far better. Simple as that. He's getting paid big money for a long time, he can't be playing like this. Edited October 15, 2022 by Shayster007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustard Tiger Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Just now, AnotherCanucksFan said: What is going on with Miller. Two goals where he was directly responsible for catching or keeping in contact with a player and didn't. Why do the Canucks keep passing the puck around so much? Stop overcomplicating things. How many times did the Canucks either pass the puck too much or hold onto the puck too long and guess what - lost the puck! When you have to puck it should be a rule that you have to shoot on net after 3 passes. Even more so on the PP - shoot the puck and look for the puck NOT keep passing for the perfect shot! This is going to be a LONG season if it keeps going this way. In both games, the Canucks are playing like they think they are the better team, but then find themselves losing because the other team fought harder for the puck. Not just two, He's been out there for every goal against lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time we have the other pieces in place Highes Petey, and Demko are out of their prime and worth very little. Trading those three will kick start the rebuild we clearly need now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only time will tell I personally doubt it, but when he's not piling up points his frequent mistakes are certainly more noticeable. He got a pass last season from a lot of folks because he was producing, if he's not producing he won't get that pass this season. Not that producing should necessarily excuse mistakes but guys who produce tend to get more slack. Edited October 15, 2022 by Coconuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandmaster Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 I’m at a point where maybe because of the nuclear disaster happening with the back end, we should just blow it all up and sell off everyone. Get a good shot at Bedard and accumulate 10-12 first rounders. Endure another 5 years of garbage but come back as a power house team. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Unpopular opinion: Miller is the reason the Canucks suck defensively and will never make the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darius Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 This reminds me of the oilers pre McDavid and Draisaitl. Hall, Eberle, yakupov, gagner gave those fans hope every year because of their perceived individual talent. Just a wrong combo backed by a limp defence that brought perpetual misery. i hope they can turn it around from this bad start. 1 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spook007 Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 We all know, we don't get to draft Bedard... Even if we are dead last, it won't happen... so are there in RHDs worthy of consideration in next years draft. Have a feeling a massive change of personal is coming in Vancouver over the next months. Especially if this doesn't improve instantly and massively... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB5 Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 (edited) I can accept losing when the team plays hard and puts in the effort. This though is embarrassing. The best player(s) were horrible, Miller seems disinterested, special teams suck and aside from a couple players this is still Benning's team. Nothing has changed this year to impact tbe core of the team which is depressing. Edited October 15, 2022 by GB5 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the reason why I didn't want to sign him long term. Miller often makes bad plays, it's part of his game. When he's playing well he's also putting up points and making good plays though, so the good out weights the bad. As he ages, it's pretty fair to assume he loses a step and these mistakes become more and more noticeable as his point totals decrease. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this whole situation doesn't improve drastically, we are best served trading him for whatever we can get, just to avoid a Loui-like albatross in the not-to-distant future.
