JT Miller since coming to Van:
Regular season: 141gp 49g 88a 137pts (.97 ppg)
Playoffs: 17gp 6g 12a 18pts (1.06 ppg)
Per 82 you’re getting a guy who has averaged:
28g 51a 79pts 151 hits 56 FO% 20:38 TOI
He plays PP1, PK1, our top line at ES, and plays all 3 forward positions.
How many other forwards in the league have been as good as him the last 3 seasons while providing his level of versatility? He’s a power forward who kills penalties, is one of the best faceoff guys in the NHL, and plays an in your face game that few other players in the NHL do. My guess is if he’s available nearly every GM for a contending team is interested. Power forwards like Miller are so rare in todays NHL and we know for a fact that GMs will overpay for big, skilled, physical forwards.
You might want to check that Minnesota has that in Marcus foligno, Jordan greenway, and Brandon duhaime. So if your example is being big, getting up in opponent face and fighting, then Minnesota wouldn't want him because of that
If that was your take away from that post, its probably best if you show yourself out. That is a brutal take for the post you replied to. Unless your point was that over the past 3 seasons Miller has single handedly out produced those 3 players combined and he does the other things they do to - then its an acceptable take.
That is exactly my take. But instead of reading what I wrote, you just attacked like how people do before reading other's post. I literally wrote Minnesota wouldn't trade for JT because he's tough, or can fight. Nowhere did I say he's not good, or Minnesota wouldn't trade for him because of his skills
Just so we are clear -
Post #1: Poster identifies 3 seasons worth of offensive stats for Miller. Indicates he PK's, PP's, is good at face offs and is a top line producer in Vancouver. Posts 1 stat buried in his post indicating hits, and stated in a brief passing comment he plays in your face style.
Post#2: You state you might want to check - the Wild have Foligno, Greenway and Duhaime and comment of fighting (the first mention of fighting by anyone in) Completely ignoring 97% of the post you are responding to. Getting hung up on the description of Miller as "plays in your face" again a insignificant sentence in the overall post.
Post#3: I respond stating, if fighting and size is your only take away from the original post you replied to - you've quite clearly missed the point.
Post#4: You sniffle about me not reading your post, and attacking without reading......
Post#5: Me trying to remind you that you took 2 words of a post totally out of context, exaggerated it and made it the hill you wanted to die on.
May I kindly suggest prior to any further interaction in regards to this thread, you reread the post you are wanting to reply to, make sure the point you want to make was even relevant to the post you are replying to. Because when you respond to a post and go rogue in your response it appears maybe you are the one that isn't fully comprehending the conversation.
