He is the GM right now/ correct
- CanuckDon


He's the president. He's narrowed his GM list to 5 people... I doubt you are going to hear a statement that he's stepping down as GM when that hiring happens and I don't think he's going to be the decision maker on Petey. Besides, you are well documented in saying FA runs the show.

His Calder season was legit but the league hadnā€™t caught on to him.
2nd season was boosted adding Miller.
Last season he dragged the team down.
This season nobody good enough to carry him.

Summary: He doesnā€™t drive play & is easy to check down. Has he the skill to overcome yes has he not even close. So either gets some humility & get his shlt together or heā€™s gone as I predict. Why does he get any benefit of the doubt? He got his 7m+ & isnā€™t earning it.

- Nighthawk

Certain players need top 6 minutes to succeed and PP1 time. Pettersson aint gonna get to 60 points with 3L minutes lol. Boudreau knows this. He'll bring him along. Either he gets the chance to succeed here or it may be somewhere else. Don't want another Neely situation where a player flourishes somewhere else while we didn't;t give him opportunity to succeed here. Patience my young Hawk type friend lol

Heā€™s motivated for sure lol
Says he has some character to prove to his doubters. Does Petey have that fortitude?

I am pissed at how Petey is wasting a year of the teams opportunity but I don't want a knee jerk reaction. It has to be a well thought out decision . Positive returns or he needs to lead if he wants the top dollar.

Facts:

Last season & this season got JB & Green et al fired.
Petey sucked both seasons.
JR & Bruce havenā€™t got Petey going.
Miller hasnā€™t missed a beat.

Why entertain trading Miller?

What's he on his 5th team now or something. He was drafted 7 (frank)ing years ago....


Meanwhile, Petey has proven more than McCann in far less time.

If anything, this shows you need to give young players time.

Without Miller & Hughes Petey would be much less. Miller & Hughes without Petey wouldnā€™t miss a beat.

The beat goes onā€¦

Yup I give young players time. šŸ‘

7m reasons why I cut no slack. He can prove me wrong or right if heā€™s got it in him. Iā€™ll eat my words if he can feed them to me.

I really get the sense that Miller would rather play in the US. We'll see if he resigns after July 1st but this team needs to trade him in the summer otherwise and not wait for the season to start. This is the main reason people have talked about getting assets for him... not his play.

Oh by the way.... Miller had some major ups and downs along the way before he made god status in this market.

He earned god status here it wasnā€™t given. Idc about where he was we got a deal on him. Petey isnā€™t god & Miller is better than him for cheaper. We get worse moving Miller to coddle Petey given what each has done here.

Do you think moving Miller makes Petey better & earns his 7m?

As for guessing where Miller wants to play I highly doubt heā€™ll hang around if Petey is pandered to like heā€™s some special case.

I still would trade Petey if a good return & the assets would be substantial. He can take his act to MSG & start a clothing line.

Til Petey gets his shlt together he doesnā€™t belong here. A non factor in this new regimes success.

Good grief already, some guys here are just absolutely brutal with the incessant complaining of poor Ole Petey. This months whipping boy, last month was Boeser, month before was Hughes, month before it was Miller.

You guys want knee jerk reactions well your posting them

News flash, Petey will be a Canuck until he is no longer a Canuck, same as Green, and Benning, it is what it is.

Miller & Hughes have produced all season.

Bo has been Bo.

Boeser found his game once Bruce came in board.

Pod & Hoagie continue to grow.
Garland a great add.
Demko has been stellar.
OEL very steady & solid.

Who am I missing?

I havenā€™t bashed any player til Petey. He either gets his head outta his ass or moves on. Yes maybe Iā€™ve picked on others to a degree but they werenā€™t ordained.

Can you point out 1 positive in his game other than extra skating in practice?

You missed Myers. šŸ˜

We should make a whipping boy calendar. Ironically enough Petey is the January pin up on the Canucks calendar.

Using your logic, we'd already have sold low on Hughes just to watch him get back on track on a new team.
