If miller stops it and they win the game, he is easily jim craig status in america

Nope - pros vs pros vs college amateurs vs the evil empire. Not even close, miracle on ice is once a century type thing, US pros beating Canadian pros is great but not epic

These are the lines I would like to see

Skinner Eichel Vesey
Johansson Mitts Reinhart
Olofsson Rodrigues Sheary
Girgs Larsson Okposo

I could see Sheary being traded before the season starts in which case I would have Thompson either on the 3rd line or move up KO and put Tage on the 4th. Would prefer having someone like Tage on a line with smaller guys like Olofsson and Rodrigues.

I don't hate the idea of Vesey on the top line but it ill inevitably over inflate his value

Good write up Mike.

My gut still says that this roster has yet to be finalized.

One of us should actually do this about Tim Horton himself.

Too soon?

This team needs a Mike Grier badly. Okposo is in that leadership role, but...

Yeah

miller was unreal until the olympics that season
- homiedclown



Yep it looked like he was playing to maker sure he was the starter for the Olympic team, Olympics came, then he fizzled out.

He was a very under appreciated player IMO.

Wish we had two like him along with a Mike Grier type on this team.

In 06/07 Vanek got

43 votes for the Byng (finished 17th)
1 vote for the Hart (finished tied for 22nd)
77 votes for the Selke (finished 14th)

Side note

Druzy finished 4th for the Selke with 300 points with the 147 points that went to Vanek, Roy, Hecht, and Pominville he’d of won it.
