Interesting interview with Valky:
- Nucks are small and can't score.
- Nucks miss Sutter and Virtanen. Sutter I get, but surprised a guy like Valk would give props to Virts. He says Virts was a beast to play against and no one wanted to go into the corner against him. As much as I liked Virts, not sure that's 100% accurate. Maybe on some nites. :lol:
- Asked what u do with Petey and Valky kinda fumbles around and has no real answer. Just says it's good for the team to get on the road and out of the heat/media in Van-city.

- Around 4:15 mark, talks about the rumours of JT Miller being a cancer in the room. if true, gotta get rid of him. First time I heard of this.



A Youtuber speculating on the division in the Nuck's dressing room from what he has heard:
- Around 2:00 mark, builds on the JT Miller "I don't know" comment.
- Tweet from Sekers&Price, the captain is isolated/alienated from the group.
- Tweet from Donnie&Dhali speculates that there's a veteran group led by JT Miller that's fed up with the young players on the team.

We still want to be a playoff team,” says Benning.
“Right now our special teams are hurting us. We have the personnel to have a real good power play and for whatever reason we’re not performing well… And the penalty kill is hurting us.”
“Our good young players aren’t playing to their potential… it’s our job as a management team and coaching staff to continue working with (Pettersson) to get him to where he needs to be”
“I’ve looked to the outside talking to other GMs to see what’s available, if something like that makes sense.”
“The guys we had penciled in to be penalty killers - Sutter, Motte, Dickinson and Highmore - not having Sutter and Motte start the year is hard for us, because they’re excellent penalty killers,”
Hamonic recently received his 2nd shot.
“This is something I didn’t expect to happen after the moves we made this summer,”
Calls the chants calling for his job at Rogers Arena last night “upsetting.”
“We’ve worked really hard to draft well and develop our players properly.”
“We’re looking at everything,”
“I’ve looked to the outside talking to other GMs to see what’s available, if something like that makes sense.”
Shrewd move by Mr Aquilini sending Jimmy out to face the media. This is exactly what the fans wanted to hear, should take the heat off the team now.

"Goddammit Jimmy, the fans are starting to turn on me now, it's almost like they're beginning to figure out our little secret about the way we runs things here. Get out there and tell the media what they need to hear and get the focus back on you where it belongs. And make it inspiring for crissake!"
I think the bolded might be prophetic guys, from the rumors going around today.

Geez, this is almost like having our own man in the war room sometimes ;)

Yes, and there's another year left on that bad boy as well.

There in lies the problem with gassing him then $$$$, however;
TRIGGBIR FROM SURREY @TRana87
Mike Babcock is in town and hearing the family has plans to meet with Babcock tonight for dinner. There may be change coming behind the Canucks bench

Of course this is nonsense as he is in town for something else entirely different. Makes for a good eyebrow raise though. 8-)

Eastern media weigh in on the JT Miller situation. TSNers and former NHL players: Mike Johnson, Jamie McLennen & Jeff O'Neil.

Noodles compares the Nucks to the Blues when 2 Blues got into a fight (Bortozzo and Sanford) at practice and it kinda jarred them back on track. JT and BoHo should just drop the gloves against each other and fight, get it settled and put it behind them; then shake hands, kiss and make up and just go back to working their butts off playing hockey. :lol:

JT for playing coach; :wave: Kidding....

Seriously, maybe Horvat isn't geared to handle an elongated slump or another large change in the roster again this year. JT Miller will handle whatever's thrown his way and work with it. Far as I'm concerned he's the real leader since the bubble.
However; Any squabbling that may be going on should be smoothed over by the coach. Yah, fuck! Laugh me a river!! Green is in over his head and then some. Get him outta there!

Random Tweet; :mrgreen:
Taj@taj1944
Hope Green goes out in a blaze of glory tonight if it is truly his last game. He can't be happy by the leaks from the organization about doing a search for his replacement when he still has a job.

Post-game presser could be legendary tonight if they lose.

Would it replace this one?

Or just be a title change?
