GDT #49: 2024/1/22 - How to be a Professional

Minten ain't ready. Give that Quillan guy a shot.

Or better yet steeves just scored again.

Put domi back at C where he was more than fine and call up steeves.

 

[Artnes]

Get ahead of the pack and go find your 2C now.

No point in waiting until closer to the deadline

 

[Habsy]

I hear JT Miller is available

I'm pro JT Miller, but I have no idea what he should be worth. Unhappy in Vancouver and wants out, is good and relatively cheap for what he is right now but has a bunch more years on that contract.

 

[Habsy]

They're not going to want to retain either. Probably gotta get them to take Tavares to make it work.

 

[Artnes]

Zero interest in Miller at 8 per

Good player but the temper tantrums have happened one too many times for him to have any success here.

 

[Artnes]

Poor guys doing everything they can to make his roll relevant

It's pretty obvious he's extremely well-liked in the dressing room. The players can't figure out why the fans could care less if he wasn't on the team.

Im kinda on board with the Leafs acquiring a complete psycho that is a misery to be around unless the team is winning.

The media really makes a big deal about every fight. It matters more than the score.
Reaves just turned 38. I have no idea why we are wasting a spot on him.

 

[leafman101]

Can't believe the Great One drafted Minten over Del Bel Balluz.

 

[Artnes]

Give me a guy who can fight and not be a liability out there all day.

I hope he fights every game he gets in because that's 5 mins of ice time he won't be out there

yeah I'd say the Leafs have too many milquetoast guys who don't hate to lose enough. On the surface Miller sounds like exactly what they need, a straw to stir the drink who is a centre and significant offensive threat. On the other hand I don't know the player and maybe he's just a huge dickhead that they're smart to get rid of? don't think we're in on it though based on Pizzaface's earlier comments re: C

 

[Artnes]

MIller with this media and fanbase sounds like a disaster waiting to happen

 

[Preston]

Is Miller not just white Jimmy Butler?

 

[mbow30]

Miller isn’t a guy who won’t tolerate bs. He’s a guy who pulls lazy bs when things aren’t going his way. Hard pass.

 

[mbow30]

Is Miller not just white Jimmy Butler?

He’s as close as a white can get to it.

Jimmy Butler made the finals, twice.

 

[Artnes]

ROR had the perfect temperament for this environment.
