Jess Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 He's a contender for sure. Massively underrated elsewhere. Funny enough, the presence of Hughes and especially Pettersson probably lead other fans not to realize how good Miller is. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker67 Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 He's up there, hope he keeps racking up the points Best Forward - Miller or Petey? Best D - Hughes Best Goalie - Demk....nah, just kidding. He could be Top 5, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demko can be better. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Korea Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 18 minutes ago, Elias Pettersson said: No Quinn Hughes is... Or even Pettersson who is not at his best. It does help to have two of the league's top players on the same power play unit. On other teams, you have guys like Sam Reinhart and William Nylander who are carrying their underperforming teams. They are doing more for their team as individuals than J.T. Miller. And that's not a diss against anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwarrior Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 This pace keeps up, Hughes wins the Norris in a landslide. Miller and Pettersson split the Hart and Ted Lindsay? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker67 Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 (edited) Canucks seem to have all 3 positions locked up, led by elite players. F - Miller and Petey D - Hughes G - Demko They have great coaching and player development, a real good GM who makes change. I think the only thing they may be missing is more toughness, maybe a player that is feared or that will keep opponent's heads on a swivel. I recall when VAN used to play VGK a few years ago and I hated it, because they had Reaves. He was impactful, just his presence. Canucks don't have anyone like that really, and they need that heading into the physical playoffs. Pettersson, Hughes. Hoglander, Garland, Beauvillier, Kuzmenko, etc. These guys aren't fighters, but could become targets. I'm not saying get Reaves, but get someone.

Do many troll posters here in the last couple of years saying Makar and Dahlin were generational. Those trolls have tucked tale and ran away like the cowards they truly are. Baby whiner cowards! Quinn Hughes is by far the most dominant and best D in this era. He is this eras Orr. Only trolls (in a Canucks board) would argue otherwise.

Sophomore Jinx Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 That is definitely subjective, but he is my favourite player, no question....cups are won with players like him, I still can't believe we have him locked up on a value contract, despite the perceived "waning years" that some worry about (I don't, the guys a nasty, friggen horse, he will more than earn this contract through it's entirety) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well guys, guess what? Shit is getting REAL!!!!! Huggable Hughes is this generations Orr. I’m just glad to see this kind of player again in my lifetime. And it’s doubly good he’s on the club I cheer for. I think some of our fans really don’t understand his good Wuinn Hughes us. And to me, that’s sad. These fans must accept Hughes is a phenom. Before they realize this era will be over and they will be only then understanding the greatness of Hughes. But then it will be too late.

I'm an '87 birthday. But I'm glad I kinda get to see this generations version. Hell, before he was even named captain, I bought a framed 8 x 10 that also came with a card. Haven't hung it yet. That's this weekends project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree, but it raises an interesting "chicken & egg" question .... Would QH have so many points without elite finishers like Brock, JT and Petey? How would he fare quarterbacking McDavid & Draisaitl, or Matthews & Nylander? or Would that trio have so many grade A opportunities without QH's skill in distributing the puck to them In Prime scoring position? Would their points be different with Makar behind them? No matter. It's just fabulous to be fan at a time when the 4 Amigos (and Demko) are reaching elite status Edited November 18, 2023 by Googlie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post spook007 Posted November 18, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2023 Miller is the heart beat of this team... He plays on emotions, and he stays in the fight, like no one else on this team does. Hughes is unreal and is skating circles around everyone, but when the tough gets going Miller will be the go to guy. Hard to separate the three amigos, as each one of them brings so much to the table... One thing is for sure though, at this level his contract is a freaking steal... 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
