Story breaks out regarding Bruce Broudreau's relationship with J.T. Miller: Why the coaching change was needed

Harman Dayal of The Athletic shared details of an incident when the Canucks coaching staff chose to take J.T Miller off of the penalty kill, only to reverse their course due to Miller's reaction.

Boudreau said of the interaction.

While some would admire the competitive nature of J.T Miller, others may question why Boudreau is allowing his players' opinions to dictate his lineup choices.

Boudreau tells the story to highlight Miller's competitive fire and leadership, but it also highlights that the former Canucks head coach did not have the firmest grasp on the locker room.

It's hard to imagine a conversation with Rick Tocchet ending the same way.
