When Joshua is back where does he slot in?

I think they'll ease him in and put him in the 4th line. Obviously depending on injuries and how the other lines are going.

“The last podcast, we talked about him being on social media too much. Well, someone called me and said you didn’t go far enough.

Crazy. Ive talked about that being a concern for years and was attacked. Seems like I was correct.

"Well, someone called me and said you didn’t go far enough."

They are making it sound like Pettersson is on OnlyFans.

I don't see any clear animosity there, although Miller is a dominant physical presence on the ice and Pettersson can't contain him 1 on 1.

This looks like nothing...?

This looks like nothing...?

To be clear, this was from today's practice and not whatever happened on Wednesday.

But, yes, it looks like nothing because the whole thing is nothing. It's just a jumping off point for members of the media and fans to create something to talk about.

When JTM was struggling in the 22-23 season I went back and looked at some random videos and there are instances where both seems to be playing as the low man.

Like if you look here it's Petey playing as the high forward receiving the pass (which he then sends to Miller skating out of the zone from behind the play, presumably because he was the low forward). And here's another where Petey and Boeser are forechecking in the o-zone (presumably as a winger would), and Miller comes in from a higher position to pick up the loose puck.

But then there's this clip where Petey is in the C position in the d-zone. And these back and forths were what I saw in the random 20-21 game highlights as well.

Miller talked about this himself and said it was just whoever was the first one back that went down low lol. They clearly didn't put as much thought into who was C/W as we are now hahaha.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

This looks like nothing...?

That level of aggression has no place in practice. The quality is grainy but I think JT Miller called him a ***** at the end. I think Pettersson is as good as gone.

While the concerns around Pettersson's play are well founded, the media frenzy about this scrum is maybe the biggest crock of shit out of Vancouver in a long time

Yep, like I said, this whole thing would not even be...a thing.

Most of main stream media (as well as many self-proclaimed independents who are really just extensions of the former) these days are pure brain rot garbagio anyways. You can just tell they are desperately trying to hold on to what's left of their rapidly diminishing power, as average Joes are getting more and more informed about all situations, formulating their own opinions on things.

Again, when the team is doing well, it frustrates the media in this market because there are no pots to stir. Then all of a sudden you have ppl like, Donnie, Janik Hansen, Boudreau seeking for attentions(last season).

Doesn’t help that a bunch of bandwagoners online will buy into whatever the hell the media are trying to stir

Exactly, like who the hell get their news from radio/cable TV/new site these days? Most ppl don’t even want to pay for Atheltic

I've lost a ton of respect for Friedman after that interview.

He’s going as the Downy bear for Halloween

Anyways, let's all just relax and forget about the stupid shit media trying to stir up.

We can all just sit back and look at PT's crossed eyes.

Get Sprong back in. Start tuning up for Joshua-Suter-Sprong to be our secret weapon.

 

[supercanuck]

The biggest problem is that we haven't had a game since Tuesday and no one has anything to talk about.
