Lol...EP is allegedly 176 so 3 inches taller yet 2 pounds less for Marcus.

I am currently getting roasted by the boys back East over the Miller EP situation.

Their opinion is exactly the opposite of our resident site ScooterSwede protectors.

Traded the wrong guy is the unanimous opinion.

These guys are just plain weird with the kind of players they covet. They've been after vthis bone rack for a while now.

And they can't stand Canadians.I don't like these guys at all.

Yep they should hand it over to one of the other brothers.

I've thought about sharing my actual thoughts on this whole situation but there's so much rage and vitriol directed at a single player and management that there seems to be a bit of balance lacking. Like folks foaming at the mouth. Theres no common ground to be found. Its all Pettersson and management's fault. Miller is completely blameless.

I don’t mind Marcus Pettersson. Think he’s a legit steady second pairing D who wont just bang it off the glass. Mid first seems like a high price, though. They either have an extension worked out or feel confident that if it’s not coming they can flip him at the deadline for similar future asset value.
