Ghostsof1915 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Not that it's an option for the foreseeable future. But Ty Young is platooning in Prince George, he's got 2 games, 1 win, 2.02 GAA, and 0.934 Save % in the playoffs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not everyone understands what it is to struggle . Personally I think he brings a lot to the team even while his point production is waning. He’s generally good defensively , draws penalties and draws the oppositions resources in guarding him. My point is why just Petey? Miller was god awful last night and boeser is completely invisible. It's pathetic, imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaming / streaming is easy..hockey is HARD. Hard on the body, mind, etc. Steaming he can have a plethora of followers who LOVE him and don't complain or bitch at him like fans. Less pressure. He could make more money steaming if he became popular... Ah, all speculation and unsubstantiated musings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stawns Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 For the record, Petey is my favourite Canuck, but in no way did I want the team signing him to that deal. They should have traded him and taken the boatload of assets and pivoted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pathetic, imo Not true if you believe in analytics. Miller and Boeser are near the top in CF%, FF%, XGF%, HDCF%, etc. Petey was in the bottom 5 for the Canucks in all those categories. Worst part is Petey was even worse in game 1 than game 2. https://www.naturalstattrick.com/game.php?season=20232024&game=30172 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NucksNation Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 I think the only way Petey breaks out of this slump is he just goes full shooter mentality. Hog the puck and just shoot everything, don’t even look for a pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pathetic, imo Miller was pretty bad, but Boeser is just too slow to make much of an impact 5 on 5 in the playoffs imo. I think they should use Brock as a shooter on the pp again. He doesn’t get his shot blocked much. Throw Miller in Petey’s spot and Petey can be net front for tips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnstorm Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Just now, stawns said: My point is why just Petey? Miller was god awful last night and boeser is completely invisible. It's pathetic, imo Miller shows immense emotion every night , he looks engaged, tries for long odds plays, wears his heart on his sleeve. Obviously people will accept that as doing his damnedest to win. He get a buy for his physicality and showing up more often than not. When he’s off he’s proven that next game he’ll usually be there. In short, Miller had paid his dues. Boeser slides under the radar for the most part because he rarely makes glaring errors. He plays a safe low risk game. They are all great players and it’s typical that one is going to draw more ire regardless of their collective play. Pettersson kind of sewered himself with demands to “win”. Some people simply put their own target on themselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKSR Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 It's pretty hard to defend Petey right now. Bottom 5 on the Canucks in all the major analytic categories including CF%, FF%, HDCF%, xGF%, etc. 1 of only 4 forwards without a point this post season. 1 of only 2 players with a negative +/- and actually the worst +/- on the entire team with a -4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 44 minutes ago, stawns said: I'm saying you can't use the argument that he's fair game because he's making $11m........ he's not. Regardless, what kind of person is so insecure and fragile that they need to do that kind of thing towards a player on a team you cheer for? I've advocated hard for miller to be traded, but it was never because I thought he was a trash player and even if I thought that, id never shout it from the rooftop. Do you admit that you were wrong, in that Miller shouldn’t have been traded? Asking for an Admin friend. @-dlc- 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For starters I said “generally” plays well defensively. That means … for the most part but not always. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, I still would have traded him at that point. I think this team has holes and they need a trade where one top line goes out and multiple good pieces come back. Miller would have been a prime candidate for that. Petey would have been too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Analytics work in baseball because it's not a fluid game where your teammates directly influence your own numbers. That's not hockey........there's no context to analytics and therex a boatload of context to a hockey game. They can provide some pieces to an overall picture, but not to an individuals impact, imo. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's taking accountability so he agrees he wasn't good and he needs to be better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok you do you. Petey's zero points (1 of only 4 forwards on the canucks) and team worst -4 also slap you in the face, but ignore that too.
