    I love it when people criticize the media. It's clear they weren't around or were toddlers when Neil MacRae was around. If they can't handle Elliotte or Frank, they would have melted down over Neil. He relentlessly beat on the Canucks in the mid to late 90s and while I didn't always like it, I appreciated that he cared and most of the time, he was 100% correct. He was doing the job of the media - asking tough questions and holding people's feet to the fire. We're so used to the media playing kissy face with either sports figures or politicians that we forgot that at its core, the media SHOULD have an adversarial relationship with the people they're reporting on.

      I grew up with him, regardless, journalism went sensational over one hundred years ago. Asking tough questions? It's a boys game played by men. You can't take any of it seriously, yet many get carried away with themselves with a grandiose sense of self importance. Something Farhan Lalji and others in that Vancouver media have in common with MacRae.

    I have been hearing Elliot repeating the same BS Yadda-Yadda for several weeks now about Miller and Petterson. Elliot is just a big gossiper who only has rumours and innuendo. He uses the same tired old terms over and over. He really knows nothing serious at all. And when he starts saying the same whitewash BS Yadda-Yadda about Petterson's "talent and ability" "Yes he has to play better" BLAH BLAH BLAH. The real truth about Petterson right now is that --- which Elliot cannot say or he'll get blacklisted --- is that Petterson's performance since he got his huge new contract SUCKS. His goals/assists stats are terrible and he is down to #124 in the league. Loyal Canucks fans deserve a lot better and we aren't getting it from the #5 Highest Paid Player in the NHL.

I believe the pressure he feels playing in this market has really got to him & this is related to his personal leave of absence earlier in the season. In my opinion.

    This drama seems to be more about Miller than Miller and Petey. When asked about their relationship Petey got visibly frustrated at having to answer the question. Almost as if he felt, as Boudreau stated last night on TSN, that the media had overblown the entire story. "Mountains out of mole hills" was the phrase Boudreau chose.
    Now, Petey also came out and publicly declared his interest in staying in Vancouver - while JT Miller is still his teammate by the way. Nobody thought that was strange? Miller didn't publicly declare his interest in staying and took a leave of absence.
    Now we all know Canadian NHL markets are a fishbowl, of which the media plays a significant role, and many point to Vancouver as the most aggressively microscopic. I can't help but think this is far less about Miller and Petey and more about Miller and the media. I'd bet Miller has had enough of people like Farhan specifically and just said, "I'm out." And I'd bet he has nothing bad to say about Petey or even the city itself.
    So while the media will admit Canadian markets are more intense, and players often choose other places because of this extra intensity, in a moment like this, where we are all baffled at how two grown men can't get along,, maybe it isn't even about them, maybe it's about the media's disturbing habit of getting into the personal lives and relationships of the players just so they have content to peddle. Sports media ventures too often into TMZ territory. Participating in low frequency gossip, conjecture, and speculation. The lowest forms of communication. I personally would be OK seeing another three or four of the ever-dwindling number of reporters in Vancouver dismissed of their duties and sent packing starting with Farhan Lalji.

    NJ is less likely because the money wont work. However, if Brock is in play Van can retain on him and NJ can move out a 4 mil contract much easier than 8 mil. (mercer)
    Theoretical moves if teams are interested would be Brock (retained) Suter and Klimovich for Mercer and Nemic.
    Then Van can deal with NYR without demanding a D which might be the NYR holdup. so maybe Miller and Forbort (free add) for Laferniere and Othmann.
    If Van is selling that is. If Van is buying then I still believe the target would be Chicago for Murphy and either Hall in the same deal or with Buffalo and Zucker in a different deal after Murphy.

    Us long-suffering Canucks fans who watch every game and have been doing so for years hate it when we are being fed BS whitewash from guys like Elliot Friedman. We understand that he's just a Toronto Talking Head who has to feed us BS because he can's speak the real truth. The real truth about Vancouver Canucks --- Quinn Hughes is carrying this team on his back, JT Miller is an extremely valuable player any team would love to have and who Canucks should keep, and Elias Petterson is an over-rated, over-paid, boat anchor that the other players have to drag around with them. And we all have to pretend is "soon going to turn it around". Until Petey starts living up to the huge expectations and gets up in the Top 10-20 goals/assists, the Canucks are going nowhere. Trading JT Miller for new guys will not help the situation.

    I don't know what the deal is with Miller, but if the Canucks are shopping him, you would think that their season goal of making the playoffs is done, and they should be looking at other restructuring trades. Petterson's contract is going to keep him in Vancouver, until he figures it out, or they buy him out. I'd like to see them deal Lankinen and Boeser before losing them for nothing at the end of the season. If they can't sign Suter, then move him for something too. Branstrom and Karlsson are a couple of interesting Depth Pieces that might attract some attention? And there HAS to be a playoff bound team that would be willing to give up more than they should to add Sherwood to their playoff roster.
    The Canucks could take a step back next season, bring up 4 or 5 players from Abbotsford and get into the Free agent pool for the rest of what they need. And what they need is to build a line around Pettersson that Fires him up, and gets him back on top of the offensive stats.
    The team can't keep doing the same thing over and over, making the same mistakes, and expect a better result.

This team needs to add some toughness and grit and he can play that number 1 center. I'd rather send mika to Vancouver but he's not waiving his no trade move clause. He's been horrendous this year and he's not a number 1 center which miller can slot into. And Miller is in year 2 of a 7 year deal worth 8 million which the rangers can afford they have plenty of cap space. But I truly believe they would be better off trading for a defenseman or 2 cause they stink defensively.

By the time the playoffs come along, he's never going to be 100%. JT on the other hand, will play through injuries and will drive his team through the playoffs.

    Pettersson is still one of the better players on the roster. Best faceoff guy, and great defensive presence. One of the best passers. I think with Miller gone it will help for him. His 200ft game is way better than Millers always has been. see miller coasting on pretty well every "backcheck"

      Have you been drinking?.... Bambi40 has never broken a sweat in his career. Miller is a leader and a workhorse.

    Get rid of the inept, wimpy Swede. Keep Miller. Get Bettman to find new owners....the current ones are a joke.

      The owners don’t play hockey tho. They just pay the bad players money. You know what a guy like miller does to a room? Causes cliques. 3 or 4 guys chilling here. 3 or 4 over there. 3 or 4 in the corner. Aka not a team.

      Ha ha replace him with Williander then have Miller yell at Wilander?
      Good thinking LMAO
      Then people will be saying maybe we should have traded Johnathan Tanner Miller
