Grub's Canucks & NHL News, Rumours, and & Fantasy GM | Early Trade Deadline

[VanJack]

Up until recently I just passed off all this talk about Pettersson and Miller, as being just the fertile imagination of the internet crowd in a hockey-mad market like Vancouver.

But lately I'm starting to seriously wonder if those two guys can co-exist on the same team. Now I just have a feeling that it would hardly be a shock if one of them was asked to waive their NTC and leave town.

And the most logical candidate is Miller.

Miller skates around looking like he wants to be moved.

Was edged relentlessly by trade rumours this week to no release

@Vector

to answer your question from the previous thread,

oh, that's easy. I read the Friedman tweet a couple days ago high as f*** playing guitar, don't even worry about it. Honestly, sadly, hockey's taken a backseat to some of my other passions. I busted my knee up twice and I have a big boy job now, and I've always been an all-or-nothing kind of guy.

I think I just post here because it provides me comfort and consistency, and I believe in the community. Been here 15 years abouts, makes ME (who I still feel like the new guy cutting his teeth at 1000-2000 posts) feel old. I just watch the games now, the drama doesn't grip me like it did before, but hockey'll always be a part of me. I go to sleep thinking about formations for the powerplay. I don't think at this point, it couldn't.

Y'know what's really funny, though? I cant remember all your monikers. So I don't know how I know you, but based on the verbiage, I feel like maybe you were always the kind of poster the younger me (I hope) would just shut up and listen to, but might not have posted as often as I did in my...obsessive...days).

I wonder if there's truth to the rumors about Miller wanting out. I still don't think it's likely, but I'm a lot more willing to consider the possibility now.

If that is the case, I would bet it's not because of Pettersson specifically.

maybe multiple guys he clashes with.? tyler myers?

There’s just no one on this current team close to Schenn’s stature and veteran presence to do that, and maybe that’s something the room needs again.

vancovuer needs MORE than a schenn type player multple leaders who has won it all to deal with all these nonsense. beat miller up to a living pulp if they have to! sparring boxing 1 on 1

So is hoglander being traded> its 1148pm right now..

 

[DimitriL07]

Rip. Would of been nice for a little present before the break

 

[Diablo2020]

We've played 32 games and our only injured player is Filip Hronek right now, yet tonight..

Linus Karlsson
Nils Hoglander
Phil Di Guiseppe
Noah Juulsen
Vinny Desharnais

All played honest minutes in a NHL game for the Vancouver Canucks.

4 quarters for a couple of our dollars might be the best thing to happen to this team.

2 half dollars for a couple of our dollars could be the best thing to happen to this team.

Plus I want a revenge Cam Neely, Glen Wesley fleecing in our favor.

Seriously look up Barry Pederson and tell me thats not exactly Elias Pettersson trending.

No idea where to ask this question so I will ask it here.

Can anyone explain to me where this Miller and Pettersson stuff is coming from? I admit I watch more Oilers, Devils and Bruins games. Maybe it was me not paying attention but it seems like the last 24 hours someone poured gas on this story and the Canucks have been mum on the situation. Is there a problem between the two? Or is it a media creation? it looks like Sekeras and Price are the ones really banging on about this

I think there was already a seed planted when Miller left the team but now this week the media has alluded to it + Tocchet not playing them together on the powerplay is what has really poured gas on the fire.

The vibes of the team were decidedly better during the period Miller was gone. They seemed happier, and scrappier even in sluggish games.

Also like...why can't Petey and Miller be on the PP together now? It's just bizarre. Not really helping the situation.
