CanuckMan Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Just FYI: Mikheyev has 6 points since January 1st, 2024 in 30 games. All 6 points assists. His last goal came 35 games ago. I understand slumps but that’s pretty extreme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero credit to JB for putting the best core this organization has ever seen. Instead the guy who tossed a few sprinkles on the cake gets all the credit just as Gillass did. Benning gets credit for Hughes and Miller. He was forced to pick Petey and and Demko was the scouts. Then Benning went about messing up the cap and not being able to build out the roster as a result. New management builds around the existing core in a year and a half and makes one of the top clubs in the league. Benning was (still is) a moran.

Then wondered how long till I'm traded (after the Kuz trade) , I don't think it's a coincidence that he played his best hockey right before the TDL annd his best game the day after. I think he'll start performing better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a matter of time now Yes, you can really see his game elevate recently. His skating and strength has increased and I loved his physicality lately. He doesn't punish guys and he takes hits too but he is always there not giving an inch. I like his compete. I thought the last couple of games we would see a goal, its there I can taste it! I will bet money he gets a goal against Washington on Saturday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero credit to JB for putting the best core this organization has ever seen. Instead the guy who tossed a few sprinkles on the cake gets all the credit just as Gillass did. There’s a lot more required to succeed than putting a solid cord together. Without the right mix of supporting players, team moral, chemistry, positive encouragement and coaching staff a solid core is useless. In seven years Benning was unable to finish the job he started by failing to support the core in many ways. JR and AP have accomplished more here to create a winning team in 20 months than JB did in 7 years. I’d hardly call their work tossing a few sprinkles. What they have done is just as important or more so as to what JB did. Anyone can bake a cake. Few can take it to the winning level.

Getting lots of chances and helping his line mates. He might be the type of guy that scores in bunches. Which is fine as he’s solid defensively Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offense on that line runs through miller and boes and mik provides some strong defence and speed to that line, which it lacks without him 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
