Fun fact...

Utah is considered the most religious state in the US, with 76.1% of its residents identifying as religious. This is based on data from the 2020 US Religion Census, which defines a religious adherent as someone who attends a religious congregation.

So, yeah, they probly do tone down the music compared to other cities. I'd like to hijack the DJ booth there and throw this one on...

We got 2 of the best talents in franchise history in back-to-back drafts in Hughes/Pettersson and we are somehow gonna ruin the era with Miller drama & Tocchet's terrible system.

Sigh
I don't see how you look at the defense and come away blaming Tocchet for this mess. I think the team is trying to work through what ever it is this is. I think the better the lineup, the more exciting the games will be.

First period was fairly fast-paced/aggressively played by Utah with a lot of quick decisions by them, so I don't understand the "uneventful" complaints, despite the lack of actual shots. Vancouver was playing methodical and positional, as they weren't able to keep up, so I understand being frustrated by the lack of offense/speed by them specifically, but on an impartial level, as an actual game, there's been a decent amount of action and competing for ice/positioning, IMO-- it's not like the teams are trapping each other or waiting for each other to make a mistake at a snail's pace or something.

They had Miller on it last game, I never believed the rift rumours until now. It's difficult not to look into it. I believe Tocchet also liked having Petey-JT on as the last PK duo too, haven't seen that either.
Hughes is now playing the entire 2 min of the PP. It's been explained that RT sees an opportunity to split the centers and make 2 PP units having at least two 1st unit quality players in the 2nd unit.

2nd unit scored... RT's logic paid of by the 2nd game of trying it. I feel it's a rational explanation.

Couple shifts later they are on the same line. Stick with your instincts. It's not a thing...
