Quoting: Juiceman
I feel like Robert Thomas doesn’t have a big enough sample size to be top 20
can say the same for JT miller being in the top 10 outside of this season his 3 best years production wise were
2020-21 53gp 46p
2019-20 69gp 72p
2017-18 82gp 58p
204gp 176p
that is an average of 71 points per 82gp that does not warrant a top 10 selection when his best year came from a ridiculously high scoring season that hasn't happened in over a decade and is bound to not happen again for a while.
not to mention Miller really isn't that good defensively and chooses when he wants to try or just half ass his way because his temper gets to him. not to mention a vast majority of Miller's points came from secondary assists 31 of his 67 assists to be exact
if im choosing a center to lead my team in PO's in hopes of a cup im selecting
Point/ Zib/ Thomas/ Lindholm/ Hintz/ Barzal/ Larkin/ Hertl/ Petey over miller all them are much more individually skilled a lot of them much more well rounded
i got to watch quite a few cancuks games this season due to working at a bar and canadian teams games always being on their was a handful of guys on that team that stuck out more and had more of an overall impact on the game then miller did most nights
he started off the year 60p in 42 gp and ended the year 39p 42gp
with multiple 2-3 game periods of not getting a point the consistency just isn't there for someone who is being talked of as a top 10 center
miller is career 70-75 point guy with average defensively skills he isn't a top 10 center nor is he a top 15 center their is lots of center that due what he does, 1 outlier season doesn't make him anymore special then the rest of them
