LATEST | Ray Ferraro denies important concerns about J.T. Miller
The Canucks have been rolling since the season started, and they have their star players to thank for it. Pettersson, Hughes, Boeser, Kuzmenko, Hronek and even J.T. Miller have all been great and they have an 11-3-1 record it show for it.
HUGE CONCERNS FORGOTTEN ABOUT J.T. MILLER
Before the season started, there had been massive concerns regarding J.T. Miller's ability to truly lead and drive a line down the middle. Mainly viewed as a winger upon his arrival in Vancouver, there was doubt that he could fill the role. That doubt has been erased and the recent comments from the Canucks colour announcer Ray Ferraro only prove it.
Miller's been outstanding in every facet of his game ever since Rick Tocchet took over. At both ends of the ice, in every situation, from the power play to the penalty kill, he's done it all:
"He is a monster for them...face-offs, penalty killing & his matchup game. He'd be brutal to play against as another C because he's a little mean, gets angry, he's skilled & can skate." #Canucks
THERE'S NO STOPPING THE NUMBER 9
Currently occupying the league's third spot in scoring, Miller has been a force ever since the Canucks acquired. He's now entered the first year of a deal that will tie him to the Canucks for years to come and it looks like he's intending on proving that he's worth every single penny.
With Pettersson driving the first unit and Miller driving the second, it's safe to say that the Canucks have one the most lethal top centermen duo in the league.
