[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks
BPA replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Ray Whitney 2002-2003 (30yr) 81gp 76pts 2003-2004 (31yr) 67gp 43pts 2004-2005 (32yr) no stats (lockout) 2005-2006 (33yr) 63gp 55pts 2006-2007 (34yr) 81gp 83pts 2007-2008 (35yr) 66gp 61pts 2008-2009 (36yr) 82gp 77pts 2009-2010 (37yr) 80gp 58pts 2010-2011 (38yr) 75gp 57pts 2011-2012 (39yr) 82gp 77pts 2012-2013 (40yr) 32gp 29pts 2013-2014 (41yr) 69gp 32pts Solid numbers but not elite. So why should Canucks pay Elite prices for Miller? The highest Whitney ever got was $4.5M in 2012-2014. The other years were around the $3M aav. -
[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks

I mentioned in previous posts that JR/PA can’t accept a crap return. Must be a 1st, top prospect and young player (preferably a RHD). If he did accept a crap trade, then all the other GMs know they can push him around. Maybe slightly downgrade to a Tier B prospect. And to be fair…I haven’t seen anyone (mind you I haven’t delved deep lately in this thread) say “get anything”. -

I’m not opposed to keeping Miller. I am opposed to BIG money and long term when his production drops. Just like I didn’t like the Sedins last contract. -

You should try reading all the previous posts instead of cherry picking. I said PK on CHI. So clearly meant Patrick Kane. -

PK is a future hall of famer. He’s been a superstar since coming into the league. Miller is not quite in the same category. It is far more likely that Miller will experience a production drop just like all the other NHL players before him. I get you are defending Miller but try not to pump his tires too much. -

How is #3 not true? If he doesn’t re-sign with the Canucks, he’s a UFA and can walk away. Yes we get 1 more season with him. Didn’t think that needed explanation as everyone is quite aware he is still under contract with the Canucks. -

At age 29yrs. Not the same as age 33yrs. Where it was pointed out that most NHL players see a major drop off in point production around 34-35yr of age. -

I don’t have a problem re-signing Miller at the right price. In my previous post yesterday, I mentioned the middle ground. If the Canucks or Miller can’t come to an agreement, then I’d rather see Miller traded for assets. There 3 options. 1. Re-sign Miller (preferably at a good cap hit). 2. Trade Miller for assets. 3. Miller walks away as a UFA and Canucks get nothing in return. -

Lol. Kane got 92pts at 33yr playing on a crap CHI team. I think it’s safe to say he’ll still keep up his production for a few more years…especially if he’s traded to a contender. -

Nothing wrong age wise at his cap hit. If RNH production drops it’s not the end of the world as he is not the team top point getter. He is a scoring depth top 6 player. Paying Miller top dollar (no discount) would hurt Canucks more if his production falters. RNH at 5.125M = 50-60pts at 34yrs it may drop down to 30pts??? Miller at $9M(?) = 90pts?? at 34yrs it may drop down to 50pts?? The caveat to RNH contract is that he has a full NMC. -

Then like the Sedins, we can expect a major drop off when Miller hits age 34. They went from near ppg (80-ish pts) to 50pts for their last 3 seasons. However, it was argued that the team as a whole was bad, so I can acknowledge that there will be a decrease in production because of that. Not everyone can be Patrick Kane. -

The thing is that RNH wanted to stay with EDM and took a discount to stay. The contract he signed was $5.125M x 8yrs. His ppg the 3 season prior was 0.82. I remember the talks were he was going to get around $7M. That’s a steep discount to make the cap work for the team. So will Miller also take a near $2M aav discount to stay with the Canucks also?? -

I can think of a few posters who will never accept Brock. -

I see middle ground as… $7M x 8yr = $56M $7.5M x 7yr = $52.5M $8M x 6yr = $48M Something along these lines. -

I’m sure ARI would gladly take them with a 1st + 2nd/prospect. ARI the dumping ground of bad contracts. -
[Rumor] Canucks interested in Calvin De Haan
BPA replied to CRAZY_4_NAZZY's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Other than his CHI years (a bottom team), he seems somewhat decent. $1M x 2yrs. Cheap depth. Capfriendly says Canucks have 45/50 contracts. So there is a bit of room. -

[Signing] Bruins re-sign Pavel Zacha
BPA replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Miller (50%) for Carlo + Lysell + 1st But Canucks would then need to trade a winger out to get under the cap.
