Just one meek word about Miller from the media. What a bunch of chicken hawks. None of them can skate, it's pretty self-evident that most are nerds from their childhood, and then they call themselves brave 'journalists' asking 'tough' questions of grown men millionaires playing a boys sport. Sounds like the team has galvanized under the media rumours.
That creepy smile at the beginning was terrifying
Allvin and Rutherford have allowed the cancer to fester for 4 years, good managers would've dealt with this a long time ago.
The only people who will have regret in the end will be us fans if we trade either miller or petey
One day, somewhere here on our beloved planet, a person will be born, let's call them a super-technician, who will magically make it so we can hear both Allvin's responses AND THE REPORTERS' QUESTIONS WITHOUT HAVING TO CRANK UP THE VOLUME.
The canucks forwards have the skill and speed to drag other teams to deep water. Hold pucks in the zone and with 50/50 battles with good stick checks. If the boys can do that, we have a cup contending team, with 0 trades.
Who is going to win faceoffs like JT? We could have lost the Edmonton game if we had played defense all game.
Best GM we’re had in years
This team has and always will; SUCK!! 49 years being a fan and this team will never win a cup. Also, get rid of that damn orca logo!!! Nothing but bad luck since the organization switched to it. It belonged to Orca Bay Entertainment when they owned the team and never changed it since.
He’s right, if everything go right, they have a playoff team!!! Well then the million dollar question is….how and when is it going to go right “consistently “?
Half way through and out of a play off spot and trending downward, Canucks not the only team that has injuries 🤷🏻
Depth , buy in and heart usually win cups.
So I heard J.T is leaving, dumb idea but I ain't the GM.
Guy has a creepy
Smile what is he doing ???
Someone ask him outright if the JT Miller camp asked for a trade. There’s absolutely no reason to waste time and energy as a GM to make a huge JT trade unless the player asked for it. There’s no way he would bold face deny it unless he wants to incur the wrath of the media for future years.
Ugh not very positive on resigning Brock 😞
Also take ownership that you fd up trading Bo and keeping JT. This tool as fd us royally.
I still believe that the Canucks "controversy" has been pushed beyond what it ever really was by the media.
The players could have sorted things out internally, but due to the media just going nuts pushing the rift farther and farther.
I don't think the Canucks room was as toxic as the media portrayed. Were there problems? Sure probably, but professional athletes and the management could have delt with it.
my left ear is thoroughly enjoying this interview. audio fixes at 1:34 though thank god
They will never win with this guy and Rutherford trust me
