Head Coach Rick Tocchet benching J.T. Miller:

Yes and no.

I think this is an interesting story from Tocchet's perspective more than Miller's. Miller has had a great season so far.

Tocchet chose to bench a star player, in a tied game, at home. That took courage.

Team wasn't playing the right way, and he sent a message. https://t.co/iiIhZqz4h5

More on benching of J.T. Miller:

I've long said, benching a good player for a long period of a game is only going to hurt your team.. Send a message, then give chance for redemption. Seems Tocchet did that with Miller.. Oh.. and Pettersson is god https://t.co/uZMPMhxSJ9

Canucks bottom 6 forwards need to pick up their games:

Garland and Joshua scored opening night against Edmonton. Höglander, Studnicka & Lafferty scored in Game 2 in Edmonton. Since then, however, Höglander in Nashville is the only bottom six forward to score in past six #Canucks games. Dmen outscoring bottom 6 by a 7-6 margin
