Do you trust Colin Miller to play top 4 minutes NOW?

[wintersej]

If Carlo goes in a Landy deal, it's highly likely, in my mind, that Colin Miller will get a lot more responsibility.

Is he ready for top 4 minutes RIGHT NOW? Not in the future, but, under this head coach, right now.

I voted yes. I was a Colin skeptic when he first came aboard and people were penciling him in next to Chara. And he wasn't ready, then. Today, I think he is ready to write his name in the top 4 in pen.

 

[Bruinfanatic]

Yes Defnetly yes.

 

[RoccoF14]

Not unless you absolutely have to to make improvements on the roster, and I would only pair him with Chara, which creates its own set of problems.

No WAY I give him top 4 time in the playoffs, regardless of who he's paired with.

He's made strides this year but let's not get ahead of ourselves......

 

[PrisonMike]

I voted yes, He has stepped up his game big time.

 

[Trap Jesus]

If this was a contending team that was taking a run at a Cup I would be, but I'm perfectly fine with this considering where this team is at right now. He's definitely looked great as of late.

 

[bearcountry17]

He's looked much better and I was always a fan but not yet IMO. Have to see him play like this 20
Minutes a night for a much bigger stretch. He's on the way though.

It's sink or swim time. Training wheels need to come off and the team needs to see and know what they have. Carlo has hit a wall, while Killer has gotten stronger as the season has worn on. Give the extra minutes to Killer and lighten Carlo's load for a bit. Would be beneficial for both, IMO.

 

[Coach Parker]

Krug - XXX
Chara - C.Miller
K.Miller - McQuaid
Morrow

Still doesn't fix the hole in the top pairing, but I don't think Carlo or Miller ever would. If it means the other big hole XXX on Krejci's wing has been filled then moving one of Carlo or Miller makes sense.

 

[Mione134]

Yes. Ive seen him slowly become what most have envisioned he could become. He's been really good. Give him more time and responsibility. He's shown so far he can do it.

 

[BruinsBtn]

He's looking really good

 

[DitClapper]

I've been a critic. He's starting to get it. I'm always relieved when he has the puck on his stick defensively because I know a clean breakout is coming. He's taken major steps.

 

[BruinDust]

Yes, on this team at least right now.

He's getting progressively better and better, that's all you can ask.

 

[Dellstrom]

He's been great. I'm ready to give him more responsibility.

 

[BMC]

Yes but I would prefer not to just yet. He's made a tremendous improvement the second half of the season. My choice for Most Improved Bruin.

 

[NDiesel]

It's sink or swim time. Training wheels need to come off and the team needs to see and know what they have. Carlo has hit a wall, while Killer has gotten stronger as the season has worn on. Give the extra minutes to Killer and lighten Carlo's load for a bit. Would be beneficial for both, IMO.

Killer has really impressed me this season actually. I think he's capable of being a our 4th D in a short term setting. Long term, he's obviously more suited has a bottom pairing guy.

 

[DitClapper]

If the Bruins trade Carlo, this is why.
Adding in McAvoy coming in. All is starting to come full circle.

 

[ReggieMoto]

I said maybe. It's a lot for a young guy. I would try him there but I don't know if I would bet the farm on it.

 

[Dr Hook]

I voted yes, and why not? He's playing 16 1/2 or thereabouts on average already. I don't think giving him another 3-4 minutes a night will overwhelm him.

 

[JOKER 192]

I voted yes but I would never include Carlo in a deal for Lando

 

[BruinLVGA]

Voted "maybe". He is very dynamic, has great skating and one of the hardest shot of any Bruins, I like his vision and how he manages to get out of the D zone in stride, seems to be getting very confident in his means.
Before I say "yes" to top 4 duty for sure, I would like to see him continue along the lines of what he has shown lately for a few more games though.

 

[SPLBRUIN]

I voted maybe, has the skill set, need to see it on a consistent basis. Has certainly been bringing it lately.

 

[tremha]

Yes. it is amazing how much better he has been playing with growing confidence. I think what he needs to work on and improve is "slowing down the game" while still playing at a high tempo. You can see he is sometimes appears "rushed" as opposed to poised. It will come with more experience, confidence, and not being afraid to make mistakes.

 

[22Brad Park]

I voted maybe cause he getting about 15 plus mins last bit Need to see him with more minutes first

 

[JCRO]

Hes on the cusp.

Definitely has impressed this season in terms of improvement in his own end and skating. Hes explosive in those first few strides.
