It's no wonder he has this attitude, everyone around him including himself is reinforcing the idea that everything is business as usual, that all the lazy floating and angry outbursts are justifiable, that he isn't bleeding goals and scoring chances against whenever he's on the ice when anyone with access to a stat sheet or actually watches him play can see otherwise. Are we overdramatizing things a bit? Yeah, we probably are. But it would be way easier to stomach if the organization was at least a bit more honest about how Miller has played this year. I get that fans aren't owed anything in terms of a specific response, but it's hard to like Miller when he acts and talks to the media this way.

Yeah. KB3 has been a big JT supporter but he calls it as he sees it. That HNIC panel though need to brush up on the Nucks. Kevin thinks Delia is a young rookie and Kelly didn't know much about the sequence at all. But still made comments. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lmm Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 10 hours ago, Boudrias said: Signing Miller was necessary to retain any value he might provide by this coming TDL. If that does not happen then IMHO it is a big mistake as his age does not compliment the team timeline. Whether this roster can 'make playoffs' or not is somewhat irrelevant. By no stretch is this roster CUP competitive. Suggesting other wise is simply grasping at straws and hoping for Demko magic. Canucks have 1 top 4 d-man. The Canucks do not have a Cup competitive bottom six. I am concerned about what Rutherford and Alvine will do moving forward. I am hoping they resigned Miller to retain some value in a future deal to trade him. Yes, I am a broken record on this thread. By the TDL I hope they move Miller-Boeser-Garland-Meyers. OEL is not a top 4 anymore but has limited trade value.That should create the CAP space to resign Horvat and Koz. If that does not happen then those two will be gone. I do agree with management's mantra that the roster has to get younger. Hopefully trades and picks will provide the talent that can make the Canucks a contender. I'm afraid I am not following you on this one. IMO Miller had more value as a rental with an expiring contract than he does with a boat anchor retirement contract we will see at the deadline who brings more return, Horvat on an expiring contract or Miller on a retirement contract, my money is on Bo It may not matter how much they throw at Bo, it's his call if he wants to go, and quite frankly I'd be surprised if he stays. IMO we are not that old age wise, it's ----------- 1989 Schenn our most solid D-man underpaid, aging like fine wine -----------------1990 Myers over paid and overplayed, decent #5 D-man -----------------1991 OEL See Myers^ ---------------- 1992 Pearson only forward in his 30s (30) Hit a brick wall this season and injured, old at 30 ------------- 1993 Miller ?!?!?! tragic contract Poolman old and used up at 29, not really age related ------------ 1994 Dries Career minor leaguer, ok for what he is and what he costs, depth Delia signed by Allvin Mikheyev see Delia --------------------- 1995 Lazar see Mikheyev, over hyped plays up and down the line up, but brings no offence Horvat Months younger than Lazar, entering the prime of his career Burroughs see Dries ^ Martin in his prime, it might last a year, it might last 10 years, see Dries^ Demko He's the guy we hang our hat on, if he doesn't turn into Cory Schneider we'll be alright those are our old guys, for comparison sake, Ovi and Pavelski are 4 years older than Schenn, and Schenn is the least of our problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the brown bag is the most misunderstood emoji even by me sometimes I use it when I think the poster is way off side mostly though I use it when I agree but the point, although correct, is nauseating I sometimes wish it was upside down so I could use it airplane style 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who isnt concerned about his escalating behaviour, on the ice, and lack of personal accountability is deliberately looking the other way. For me, it is pressing because his NTC kicks in after this season and if they don't move him by the tdl it's going to be a rough 7 years with him. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont Just was confused. I like that poster. He usually gives out hugs. On the Miller topic though, as one of those defenders that you talk about, I have never liked the way he heads back to the bench ater a shift. I think every player should be attentive and hustle when on the ice surface. Edited January 3, 2023 by bishopshodan got my hug! 1 5 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't expect every player to leave everything on the ice for every shift, but if you're going to pull that kind of crap, you better be the hardest worker on your team. I wouldn't put miller in the top half for that on this team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
