Miller turns over the puck and gives up on the backcheck after getting muscled off the puck. Then petulantly sits on the bench

Unfortunately it seems every GM sees him as either a headcase or a cancer.

If Mgmt traded high on him last year, might have gotten more than a bag of pucks.

I could see a contender with strong leadership seeing him as the piece to put them over the top.

If a GM thought that. It would have happened.

Unfortunately most offers reported have been a bag of pucks because they know the risk of bringing in a character like Miller.

Lever-age does it again!

We play so much better when we're not pressured.
Mushyocrity™ is the goal.

A streak is born again.

Demko looking more like last year’s version.

Petey’s line was a lot of good out there. Much more noticeable than Miller and his linemates. Miller made some good plays, but was pouty/lazy as much as not.

K. The appetizers are done. Now for the big test against Dallas.

Yeahno, a GM or two have thought that for sure.

They have been lowballing thus far because they figured the baldies are desperate.

That will change as we approach the deadline and they are convinced Nucks won't accept a lowball offer.

I hope you are right Doc. They've mishandled this issue badly, and my feeling is the rest of the league sees it. And isn't in a rush to help.
