Actually we are handling this quite poorly TBH.

Disagree, he is playing a fringe game and deserves the treatment. Raty is outplaying him, as is Sasson, this shouldn’t be a I like the guy and he should be playing with premier players. Good on Tocchet.

How? Your not moving Hogs just for the sake of moving him. He's a former 2nd rounder that scored 24 goals last year, if the offers aren't there then you stand pat. No point taking pennies on the dollar for a guy that could become part of a bigger trade.

Trouba to Anaheim, for Urho Vaakanainen and draft pick

so there goes Lefty’s dream of moving Miller.

On a bad note, Canucks now play a cheap shot player more.

Throw in Gudas with Trouba and that is a mean duo.

Interesting take, I thought he was referring to how Hogs is being used. If it was as you suggested about moving him then I agree, not poor treatment but smart management.

There was zero chance on Canucks trading JTM. He’ll be back before you know it.

On real news Demko is suiting up for the CBJ game as a back up. Starting a game is imminent.

Keep in mind, you're dealing with someone who thought Jim Benning was a good GM.

I'm not dreaming of moving Miller out, it's just fun to throw some poop his way for quitting on the team. Fragile POS. There's no scenario where trading him makes the team better in the short term, so I hope he comes back and lights it up.

Someone should tell Lordy that Benning's team lost to Vegas in the second round, not the third. There were also many extenuating circumstances around the whole thing. They probably wouldn't have made the playoffs except for the qualifying thingy, neither would Minnesota. It was August and half the Blues players didn't want to be there (covid)...did I mention it was AUGUST? And lastly, they would've lot 4-1 to Vegas if it wasn't for Demko.

Won in qualifying round, 3–1 (Wild)
Won in first round, 4–2 (Blues)
Lost in second round, 3–4 (Golden Knights)

Vegas lost to Dallas in the third round, and then Dallas lost to Tampa in the finals (4th round).

wah wah wah lol

lol thx tipster for bringing it up actually under Benning/Green they 'technically' won 3 PO rounds not just the two last year under Allvin/Tocchet if we are gonna play the shoulda woulda coulda game lolz. Either way until this management/coaching group gets this current club to the conference finals it's the same drain and the same circle man. Just different managers and Coaches. Now I will say this roster has the 'potential' to go further but we haven't seen that just yet. Patience. And yes I'm aware they lost in round two vs Vegas but 'technically' they did play three PO rounds with the play-in.

He wasn't great but he did give us the core we have now...which is nothing to sneeze at champ Although Allvin/Rutherford/Tocchet have done good things too obviously.

Sending them down allowed for accrual to begin again as they were over the cap limit with them.

I don’t think you understood the reason for the moves were solely to max out LTIR if they need it in the future as it could only be set once with their bonuses.

I heard he was healing from this years great locker room fight. Petey messed him up pretty good for yelling at him on the PK.

Petey can't fight so he uses his superior intelligence on Miller for psychological warfare.... He left a Pumpkin Latte at his stall.
