Petey is getting traded?? Hmm. Maybe the rumours of a rift between Petey and Miller are true. Is the locker room divided between players that support either EP40 or Miller?

Wasn't Friedman just making up shit. I don't see that being a good trade for the Canucks.

Friedman “had a dream” about the trade and started yapping about it on 32 thoughts.

Buffalo is in a tail spin and they are willing to do anything so it made enough sense

You know with JR saying we have a 3 yr window to win, and our core getting older. Petey contract is the easiest to deal because he's not locked down. Petey is a square peg trying to fit in a round hole. At least in Buffalo he can play as 1c and can be the top dog there. Cozen will be perfect for 2c while Miller can still be 1c. We get a top 4 Dman with cup experience.

What happened? Petey and Miller were fine last year ... it's not cuz Petey is making 1.5x than Miller, is it? Alpha male in the locker room issue?

Petey being younger still has the better upside, it really depends if you want to throw away the long term. He's still believe he's going to be a 80-90pt player even at his worst with a solid defensive game.

Miller's the guy if you want the best chance to win today, but he probably only has a few more years left before he starts regressing.

Freidman's deal kind of sucks. Dahlin, Thompson, or maybe Power has to be involved.

It’s all speculation but I find it kind of hard to believe management would give Petey an 8 year deal if there was all this existing turmoil and relationship issues between him and Miller

You’re professional athletes, Its hard to believe even if they don’t like each other they couldn’t at least co-exist in a locker room.

^ this is where my disbelief is, what can be so bad that they literally can’t play hockey on the same team? And if that’s the case Petey isn’t looking too mature in that scenario.

So guys…. What are the chances of me getting bootfucked in the head walking around Calgary like this (sans cute bear head) today?

This was pure speculation on Friedman's part and he acknowledged that. Trading superstar players doesn't get you what you think it will. Buffalo trading Eichel, Calgary trading Tkachuk, the list goes on and on. The team that trades away their star player is almost always on the short end of the stick.

Leaking trade talks with the shittiest team in the in the shittiest town in the league to light a fire under Petey's ass? EleGiggle

more like light a fire under the whole team's ass lol. they played a completely different game than the one they showed us against boston.

Cozens hasn’t been the same player after he got his face punched in. He would immediately become the new whipping boy

Fuck back to backs going from Utah to Vegas

Life of a pro athlete is one of luxury, but even just travelling Utah to Vegas same day is pretty rough. Wouldn’t doubt they get stomped tomorrow

google shows it's a 1h25min flight, not super bad but of course it's a tiring experience overall

Hmm quicker than I would have thought. Comparable to a EDM/Calgary back to back

I agree. Although if Miller and Petey rift is bad enough, something has to give. I am sure management tried the non-nuclear approach. There are players that are toxic or cancers in the locker room. Not saying Petey or Miller are but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to bring a good culture and get rid of distractions even if you have to trade a star player.

Brings vibes of Bertuzzi and his cliques back in the day

Story time?? I haven't heard of this one but I'm here for it

What a goal by Dakota! Deke from Dak!

Atrocious play by Miller in OT

But NHL OT is a farce anyway.

What a tough loss in overtime!

End to end action during OT.

Despite the loss and the fact they blew a 2 goal lead, 3rd period and OT was really good from an entertainment perspective

Miller can’t make that pass to Garland in OT or if you dk you immediately have to hard skate back not stand there and watch it before realizing Garland didn’t score…. Brutal time management

Also a shit non-save by Demko too though
