If you were the Canucks, who would you trade: Pettersson or Miller?

Miller is trying to get the best out of the team, better than being passively mediocre like Pettterson is ok with doing.

Debatable, but nobody knows the specifics of what's going on. All I know is we've seen Miller snap on teammates a few times over the years, so it wouldn't surprise me if he's the type of guy who wears out his welcome. Like the player equivalent of the Torts-type coach. Your co-worker being an asshole is no different than your boss being an asshole--at some point they make you want to stop showing up for work.

Easily trade Pettersson, he would also net a better return. Miller is the better player, the better leader and the more well rounded player despite being older.

Miller was directly responsible for 2 goals against last night when he just didn't feel like playing defense.

Pettersson isn't hurting you when he's not scoring.

Miller>>>>Petty.


Petty hasn't been the same player since re-signing last season.

1 game, Pettersson on the other hand hurts you in the playoffs by being a complete ghost.

Eh, it was one playoffs. He was great in the bubble. I don’t think there’s anything about Pettersson’s game that suggests he can’t succeed in the playoffs. His shitty play last year was a continuation of his play in the last 1/3 of the season. Pettersson isn’t a passive player when he’s on, so while his drop in play is a definite concern, if the team is confident he’ll get back to his previous level, I don’t think the playoffs should be a concern.

1/3rd of last season, all playoffs and all season this year after signing an 11.6m contract? If I'm Miller I'd be pissed too, completely mailed it in after getting paid.
