Gives ANA more cap space, and solves expansion problem, while also adding a good forward for the next 2 years No. No I couldn't see Anaheim trading their best dman right before the playoffs.

Is he there best d man? 13 points in 50 games. Seems odd to me, but I don't watch many Ducks games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Vintage Canuck- Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Steve Yzerman was prepared to lose Ben Bishop in the off-seaon and is happy he could get a deal done. "In the business now in hockey, you have to make some decisions based on the salary cap," Yzerman said. "(Budaj's) really done a heck of a job this year for LA. In moving Ben, we needed a good backup, somebody to help out Vasilevskiy. (Budaj's) done a great job filling in for Quick." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller makes 6 Hansen makes 2.5 Bernier is at 4.5 Stoner is just over 3 Here is a bit of reality as well.....if it was as simple as YOU mapped out, it already would've been done by now.....am I correct? One trend I'm also noticing is that teams aren't parting with prospects. Certainly not the top prospects that Benning might hold out for for Hansen. What prospect would Anaheim offer? We don't know. Perhaps not any of the names you've listed Bishop didn't exactly fetch a top pick or prospect as well so there is that. Those are the over looked realities I'm not tryin to be prickly and I too want to see the great returns for these guys but I just don't see it at this time....by Weds, I hope I'm wrong I'm not now assuming...it was a central part of my original post. If you skipped over that, or failed to comprehend it, that's on you. Don't misrepresent that I'm changing the narrative. I'm not. No, you are not correct. It may not be done already, and may never be done, for a variety of reasons that bear no relation to your argument. Timing can be affected by any number of things. Let's just reiterate...you said that the Ducks wouldn't give up a single name on that list of 15 prospects for Miller and Hansen and that I was dreaming if I thought so, right? Again, your math is completely off and you decide that they would rather force Stoner out than use him in this playoff run for depth. That's silly. Bernier is a liability. His salary is a liability. You think the Ducks would only pay a mid pick to swap him and M8ller and save 1.15mil to add another piece? OK, we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think the Ducks would only pay a mid pick to swap him and M8ller and save 1.15mil to add another piece? OK, we will see. Well I'm basing my arguement over the example LA did when they sent Budaj, a b/c prospect and a 7th for Bishop and a 5th. There is zero talk of Anaheim even being interested in Miller. It is only happening from our side. Heck, they could trade for MAF who unlike Miller has won a cup. Yes of course Bernier would have to come back this way. Would be silly to assume he doesn't and I wouldn't care if he won us a game down the stretch at that point. I'm not trying to argue with ya and you do make great points....but they are only just that.....YOUR points. As a die hard fan I hope we DO get a great return but I'm not holding my breath. The biggest thing you said that I 100% agree with is "Ok, we will see." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ottawa could potentially be interested but they have Condon so not sure how it would work out. Our only shot is trading with Anaheim yet again. He wants to be near his wife and he will get that opportunity there. Burr could also lure a solid haul while Millsy might get a similar return to Bishop's. honestly I see Montreal having to make a move and Burr will them make a deep run and he also deserves the Cup. It's just whether the Habs will be willing to pay I think Miller would love a shot with a contender BUT I also think he seems really happy in Vancouver - did you see him goofing it up in the Superskills? Miller seems to me to be the kind of guy who values loyalty and happiness in his workplace. He has a great relationship with Marky and seems to be well liked by all the young guys especially Try. I thought he was a bit of a cold fish when he first came but as time went by he has really settled in and seems to have the fans right behind him and appreciating his class.

I have fallen in love with Millsy considering he always keeps us close in all the games. He is starting to be a fan favourite and everyone loves him now just like Marky. if he re-signs over the summer, I would have no problems with that. class act. what he did to protect Stecher in the Leafs game last year is a moment I'll never forget. a leader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we were asking a lot move expiring contacts for picks and prospects. (Something gms have been doing since the beginning of pro sports) Just three more moves Then call it a success, expectations are so low he was able to move one guy in three deadlines so far and the fanboys and homers are out in force praising there lord and saviour. it was a good hockey trade, hopefully benning finally sees this/his team is not a competitive win now playoff team and sells of as many pieces as he can. 1 move is a good start I hope he keeps it going.
