His playstyle will always lead to criticism when he’s not scoring.

I’m not concerned since my worry was that he might shy from playoff contact but he’s been in front of the net on the PP and not afraid to battle for a loose puck when he’s had the chance to.

That being said, I’d rather have Miller in front and Brock in a shooter position

I agree though it seems he has a timing issue on shooting bobbling the puck sometimes. The OT yesterday he got 2 off that were more normal for him. It only takes one to go in for confidence to take off again.

I’m not concerned either he just needs to lose that Matthews stick & push through it.

5v5 play him with Bo drop LE to 3rd line.

I like Hughes solo on the point & Miller working high with him. Bo the bumper & net front. It’s working as is.

All we heard during bubble training camp is how “Brock’s shot is back!” and yet he’s in front of the net on the PP, just seems bizarre.

I suspect it’s because they prefer JTM’s playmaking ability and decision making over Brock’s but Hughes and EP both have more than enough playmaking ability in that triangle.

Loopdy loop twirling in the D zone is the best way to get the puck up the ice

Keep beating that drum: the Blues get away with more because they're thought of as a "heavy" team so it's just what they do. Canucks are a skill team, so if they play rough, it's obvious.

Myers 2mins for being tall. Stecher elbowed to the head but too short for a call.

Are you saying refs go into games with preconceived mind sets?

That’s a penalty on FAT but pretty sure at least 4 hits the last few games by the blues like that...even hurting Myers
