  1. You can if you dump or retain on other positions that are easier to replace
  2. So miller is designated a core player morris than Horvat, who is about 3 years younger ? Pretty stupid management in that case.
  3. Then why trade him ? Dump Miller for whatever you can get instead. If the goal is to clear cap, easier to replace a winger vs center.
  4. I don't agree with just trading a top tier player for guys who just fill roles, need an impact player back. Trading Horvat
  5. Who, miller or horvat ? Haven't heard about any of these guys. Looks like the only real 1st of the 3 is Brisson but even then 29th overall. If you're talking Bo, i feel like they can do better. Quality over quantity. Need to strike a deal with the Devils for either Bo or Miller, they have a tonne of cap space next year and have prospects, young roster players galore.
  6. weird feeling that they end up signing horvat and trading Miler. Much easier to find a winger replacement than a 2nd line center.
  7. Bo has all the power in negotiations. He can easily get back at management by telling other teams (unless they are contenders) that he will not sign with them...trade nixxed. Unfortunately contending teams won't want to move the assets that Van really needs to improve.
  8. They need to start selling/retaining of some assets like Meyers and Pearson. Really hope if they trade Horvat/Miller they get a top 4D + back. Bedard would be a perfect Bo replacement ...we get younger, less cap and improve D. I know Rutherford doesn't want to do a full rebuild, but how can they not see this is the perfect year to tank for just 1 season, especially if they can start to fix up their D through a Horvat or Miller deal.
  9. Patience is going to fix this. Can't be making trades for the sake of it. They are probably going to wait things out until the cap goes up (hopefully 4 million end of this season), teams have a bit more flexibility to take on salary and let the bad deals the JB signed expire or become tradeable. (Pearson, Meyers etc.).
  10. Doubt Horvat would ever extend there, he would probably only agree to sign with a team that is closer to contending. Must be miller or Boeser they are discusisng.
  11. Trade one of Bo or Miller get back a good Defenseman +. Trade Myers, and one of Boeser or Garland . Tank hard for Bedard or a top 3 pick and the team comes out further ahead.
  12. Any chance they get him to agree to trading him at the deadline for some good assets and then resigning with Van in summer? Might be a good play.
  13. Excellent, we need this losing streak to continue until year end and start selling assets. Need to land bedard and trade one of horvat or miller
  14. Yea given our luck it won't happen, but anyhwere in the top 3, preferably 1 this year would be great
  15. Given the quality of the draft this year, this losing is a blessing - hopefully management realizes this. They need to punt on this season, clear as much cap as possible, trade a significant piece like miller or horvat to address the D and try their best to finish last overall. IMO they'd come out way ahead next year - top 3 pick would be huge, preferably bedard, especially if they move horvat
  16. Target hanifin, still young fits the age group of the core. Steady dman. We have wingers of similar cap hits in boeser, garland etc.
  17. Agree, he needs to force their hand and tell them he won't resign. In a way, I hope he pulls a Gaudreau, to slap management and ownership in the face. Maybe then, they'll realize they need to do things the right way.
  18. Bang on, they needed to start in 2016. They need to trade bo, or miller get a top 4 d. Tank hard hope for bedard, and start from there. It's super sad they haven't been able to figure out that rebuilds is what it takes to contend.
  19. Agree they need to trade one of them and preferably Miller, but I think his value (with his contract) is lower and teams won't give up much. Would be sweet if they can pull off a trade to start fixing the D and somehow finish last in the league and get Bedard or pick in the top 3 - deep draft. We'd come out way ahead in that situation. But knowing the team, it'll never happen.
  20. Agree, but they don't have to trade him to a playoff team. They shouldn't be trading him for just prospects and picks definitely need to get a top 4 Dman back. There could be some playoff teams that have an abundance of D that would be willing to remove a good Dman with a similar cap hit and age. Pure example, not saying it will happen, but a scenario like Calgary where they have excess D.....guy like Hanifin .
  21. Makes sense to trade Bo for a solid young top 4 dman+ , but only if management is ready to tank this year and somehow we end up with Bedard. If not, we will be stuck with Miller as 2nd line center - disaster.
  22. Trade the isles miller, if they're still interested. Get rid of him before his contract kicks in.
  23. At this point they need to trade him if they aren't going to play him...mind boggling how guys like stillman is given more opportunity than him.
