I suggest reading the entire article, Miller got some good quotes talking about himself and the team. He’s very honest, as always, and shows he really cares about the team.
TLDR: – Miller takes accountability for playing poorly in the first part of the season, says he hit a”low point” in those games where he screamed at Delia and quit on a backcheck. That was his turning point. – says Tocchet’s system is sustainable because he has made it very clear for them what they need to do and they need to keep doing it to have a good start next season, it’s on the leaders to be a good example. Says it’s easier to win games with Tocchet’s system of accountability and defensive priorities. Push the other team to make a mistake first. – He’s not concerned about trade rumors, he was talking to Allvin who reassured him he’s part of the Canucks future. – Why he wants to stay when the team has been terrible the entire time? He says this is home now. His daughters were babies when they got here and now they have friends and it has become home. He loves the city, the fanbase. – He believes the team is going up, he was told to be patient last summer and says the right moves are being made and he’s here to be part of the big picture. Says “it’s coming”. – He says Canucks are going to contend for the Cup in the future, doesn’t know when, but he signed for 7 years because he wants to be here when it happens and believes it will happen.

Idk what I was predicting this season but I sure as shit didn’t see Horvat and Miller doing a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde switcheroo.

Fitting since the most recent Canucks and Mandalorian seasons have been trash

I think some of us have become jaded with the negativity from this last decade to not pick up on the extremely positive outlook that having a leader say something like this out in the open.
As a fan who enjoys hockey and the Canucks as an entertainment product – it is good to see the leaders on the team are also enjoying hockey and the Canucks to an extent.

I’m glad they aren’t trading him, if he goes back to last years form. With him and Petey we could potentially have 2-100 point players. Add in Kuzy who could maybe be a PPG (he had 74 points in 81 games this season). That’s kind of exciting. It’s nice to see the leadership group step up as much as they have.
Also would like to add how nice it is to read a well written article and not some of this crap that’s been pumped out recently.
