I'm not going to drag this out, but the notion that Wayne Gretzky didn't expect to be treated differently than his peers in many situations is laughable. He did expect it, and he got it, because he 100% deserved it.

You probably won't drag it out, but someone else will

Issue is more times than not you don't even know Stewart is playing.
- dadeadhead


Agreed, although I have noticed him the lAst several games...maybe I'm looking for him more..or his line mates are better suited to his style of play? Not sure, just know I notice him more...kinda like Folgno before he screwed his hand up. Going to the net harder.

Does anyone know when the trade freeze thaws?

I'm pretty sure I read(red) somewhere the team in front of him isn't the greatest this year.

I don't think Miller had a big ego, I think he was a sore loser of anything

His team sucks though, they give up 40+ shots on a nightly basis. His one shutout he had this year he made 48 saves.

I'd expect the save% to be a bit higher though

I wonder if he crosses the pond this off season or the following

Tough question to answer.

Gretz pretty much demanded Bernis Nichols to be dealt.

Gretz told management to get Kurri, Coffey, and Fuhr.

What Gretz wanted he got for the most part, and rightfully so as he was/is the greatest player to lace them up IMO.


Miller was more the media prima donna.

Terrell Owens and Stevie Johnson disagree

You can add Donte Whitner to that list

I never saw Miller flip a car with a hooker in it and expect not to get arrested because he's a goalie
