    It’s not speculation though, look at the season they’re having.

     

    Teams don’t just do that kind of 180 without improving their roster in some way. We’re gonna have a hard time doing that without cap space.

     

    Again it comes down to timeline. I know fans hate giving up on a season, I hate it too, but next season will most certainly be another building season. The season after that they might be back on track if the right moves are made, but no guarantees.

     

    The question comes down to how many runs are we gonna get with Miller, and what is the risk of holding onto his contract for those runs. Versus getting that cap space and assets now and using that to help build a team that will have a longer window.

    Well said.

    Well for starters OEL is good with the puck on his stick. He’s pretty good in the O-Zone and he gets his shots through. Last year he was a lot better defensively so I have reason to believe a player doesn’t decline this much in one year 

    He takes far too long with the puck on his stick , loses it or ices the pass.can’t hold the blue line in the O and defensively…. He’s a pylon. Or he takes a penalty for hooking. But yes he’s not going anywhere. Bennings biggest blunder as GM .

    Considering JR has been the only President this owner has had that could make him listen to reason, it would be a big loss if he steps away.  But Allvin has been winning his deals (especially the Bo one! Got great return and dodged a contract demand from a selfish player) so I’m sure he will continue to do great for us and build us another great team, like Gillis did. 

    Lmao selfish player. He deserves this contract. His will work out way better than Vans (selfish) miller deal over time.

    [Trade] Canucks trade Bo Horvat to Islanders for Anthony Beauvillier, Aatu Raty, 2023 1st-round draft pick

    I actually think this is a pretty dam good trade. 

    I loved Bo at times, but the idea and reality of Bo, as i've said before, were not always the same.  If we had signed him for 8M + you can bet he would be back at 20g 60pt next year.

    Ratu i really wanted in the draft - i followed him really closely that year, and he artificially tanked his standings from consensus first over all to 2nd round pick due to not putting up points but still playing a tight defensive game. I still thought he would go top 15 and was fuming when we missed him in the 2nd.  Next season he tore it up and was back to Blue chip status - i haven't really followed his progress in NA as closely but his stats show he is still trending well. Big unit of a C who can play shutdown with some serious offensive upside on his day. 

    I think he can make an impact next year and is cost controlled for 2 more years. 

    1st is all good.

    Disappointing we couldn't have got a decent D prospect out of it instead of Beauvillier but we could probably flip him, or he could provide cover for losing Garland + Brock at the TDL.  Its not a home run - but I think its one of the better realistic packages i saw floating around.  Better than the Boston and Car ones IMO at least

    We are only 1M better of in the cap next year as a result if we can't flip Beau or some of the other overpaid wingers tho - which limits our ability to rebuild the D. 

    We don't get strong this year - we get A LOT weaker which helps team Tank. 

    Its and change and this team badly needed one - bringing back Bo + the rest of the core would have produced the same results.  Its the retool we needed... in hindsight tradiing Miller would have been better - but this years Miller is likely next years Bo if he had stayed, and Maybe JT steps up now Bo has gone - lots of smoke about those two not getting on.  

    Some smoke about others not getting along with Miller also. JT better step up and better yet man up to prove management choose the correct player to retool with. Who will be the temp captain until we get past this years sh!Tahoe and maybe next? Pls don’t make  Petee captain during this mess.
