BAHAHAHAHA. Incredible.Positive, I’m up and coffee is great!
Unfortunately the mysterious third option of evolving into a parallel universe overnight that draws all things Canucks, Leafs, Canadiens, and Avs into the void making this place tolerable for everyone else didn’t happen. Sorry all!
To turn this topical, Miller is someone you win with. If you have a strong room vested in just that, he is not a problem. Petterson is a non-serious player. He’d fit in well with what the Hawks are trying to do IMO. Trade both so we can go back to important things like hearing about what will happen to something called Nils Hoglander.
You can't win with him because as soon as there's any adversity, he actively makes it worse by completely ending any on-ice effort (there's gotta be a a sizzle reel out there of JT's "controller disconnected" moments") and throwing temper tantrums on ice and on the bench.
The Canucks trading Eichel is 1:1 analogous to Buffalo trading Eichel. If they do it, they will lose the trade hilariously and continue to circle the drain. The other trade party will have pulled off a coup.
