Very Nice, Very Evil!
Its because Miller is an elite F1 and he brings the forechecking element crucial to Tocchets system, to every line he plays on.Pettersson's linemates aren't causing him to not move his feet and compete or try to make plays and attack defenders.
And he gets consistent PP1 minutes and is bad there and the Lotto Line gets put together pretty regularly and he's bad with them and they gave him Boeser and Hoglander as linemates for a stretch to end the season and he was bad with them too.
It's such a cop-out. JT Miller still looked fantastic playing with Phil Di Giuseppe.
I still maintain he is playing injured.
Something is limiting torque from his hips. He cant shoot the way he shoots, he cant change direction the way he does normally.
I wont dispute that there is a mental component to his lack of production too.
