The Canucks inherited the OEL contract in a Benning trade when he was desperate to save his job. The trade was basically Dylan Guenther for OEL and Garland. While everyone loves Garland, it was obviously a terrible trade.
Lets goo another NHL video! Definitely agree that the issue with blue line is magnifying the whole "controversy" with Miller and Petey. I think if you go to every NHL team there will be certain players that don't really get along. Would rather we keep both of them and figure it out but if I had to pick one to be traded it would have to be Miller. I think trading away Petey will be such a mistake as time goes on.
History has proven that make a long playoff run, a team has gotta have a strong core of Cdn players. There are exceptions, but generally speaking, this is true. Cdn players have been hard wired to die for their team. End of story
10 years ago i would have fully agreed. It was the truth back then. Looking at the game now and the next generation, i think it will be a mixed bag. We just seen perfect example with the Canadian junior team. Teams with solid top six, good leadership/coaching, depth, speed, and a brick wall blue line are what wins cups. Race has very little to do with it and there are more and more skilled players from other countries as the sport itself has grown significantly...also the vibe in canada has changed and not for the better.

@@nm3724 right, I love Garland too and I’m glad he’s here, but the trade was just disastrous

They’re in a playoff spot…. Like people need to settle down. Its a long season.
@@lannon4prez yeah, I think injuries will threaten their playoff spot more than interpersonal drama
@ ya but they’ve been dealing with injuries, still clawing in there, and yet there is still so much negativity.
@lannon4prez well miller and Perrterson gota man up and get over it
Vancouver has only won 2 of the last 11 games
