This Canuck drama is interesting. Here is an angle no one has discussed. It seems to be more about Miller, than Miller and Petey. When asked about their relationship Petey got visibly frustrated at having to answer the question. Current and former teammates have admitted to them not being friends but have also stressed that it's all being overblown. Petey felt as Boudreau felt last night on TSN, when Bruce said that the media had overblown the entire story. "Mountains out of mole hills" was the phrase Boudreau chose. Now, Petey also came out and publicly declared his interest in staying in Vancouver - while JT Miller is still his teammate by the way. Nobody thought that was strange? Miller didn't publicly declare his interest in staying and took a leave of absence. Now we all know Canadian NHL markets are a fishbowl, of which the media plays a significant role, and many point to Vancouver as the most aggressively microscopic. I can't help but think this is far less about Miller and Petey and more about Miller and the media. I'd bet Miller has had enough of people like Farhan specifically and just said, "I'm out." And I'd bet he has nothing bad to say about Petey or even the city itself. So while the media will admit Canadian markets are more intense, and players often choose other places because of this extra intensity, in a moment like this, where we are all baffled at how two grown men can't get along,, maybe it isn't even about them, maybe it's about the media's disturbing habit of getting into the personal lives and relationships of the players just so they have content to peddle. Sports media ventures too often into TMZ territory. Participating in low frequency gossip, conjecture, and speculation. The lowest forms of communication. I personally would be OK seeing another three or four of the ever-dwindling number of reporters in Vancouver dismissed of their duties and sent packing starting with Farhan Lalji.
Santander is a beast... He would have fit perfect after we lost Teoscar... But now we have lost too much!!! The only way it becomes worth it is if they go out and get Pete, Max AND Profar plus another bullpen arm they would MAYBE fight for a playoff spot!!
Boys your Leafs could go 82-0 in the regular season but come playoffs they'll crap the bed again as usual. Their not playing Buffalo or Chicago or San Jose's in the playoffs, their playing teams they can't compete against in a 7 game series. Game over
