  1. The first and Bahl would be a haul. I'd trade Boeser easily for that.
  2. Lol, Bedard. Haha, okay you obviously have no clue what's going on. Get Berdard, keep our core trade our garbage for top players. No problem
  3. A second round pick for an expiring depth RD is actually pretty decent.
  4. Can't wait until someone gets traded. First team in 40 years I simply don't care about. This team seriously lacks maturity and leadership. Miller has neither. Hopefully we can Jumpstart the rebuild with him. It's no wonder the whole team acts like spoiled brats when JT is the best older player on the team.
  5. Yeah, I can't imagine why on earth he would sign with Van unless his wife and kids had serious roots. Otherwise he has a lot of way better options for his future. Especially being American I could totally understand his desire to play out his career there as compared to here. His kids are to young to even be in school so they can be moved without much impact. As you said he seems serious about winning and there are far better options out there for that right now.
  6. That's all fine and dandy but Miller isn't re-signing here anyway so we might as well get something for him as he's a top notch deadline pickup. It would be dumb not to.
  7. I find the biggest problem with the team is maturity. There is too much selfishness and individual play on the team and I think they are seriously lacking leadership. It'll probably take Hughes and Petterson becoming more mature and understanding what sacrifices need to be made to win, and then instilling that in the players around them. It's so mind boggling how they don't understand simple concepts like don't get scored on with less than a minute left in the period because you're dicking around with the puck in your own end. These guys don't play with the team in mind. It's all about themselves.
  8. Hey, big difference between now and the last rebuild. No old Sedin's just eating up cap as their careers dwindle down. Our best young players were Bo, Virtanen, Tryamkin. Now we have Petterson, Hughes, Podkolzin, Hoglander, Boeser. We have a great young goaltender entering his prime. A couple of moves could really change the complexion of this team moving forward. I agree JR and co. need to make their stamp on this team and give it some new life and direction. Oh yeah. Also no Ericksson to pair with aging Sedin's. X-Petterson-X Hoglander-Bo-Garland Dickinson-X-Podkolzin X-Lammikko-Highmore Hughes Hamonic OEL Myers X-Schenn Burroughs Poolman Demko Martin I tried to give Dickinson a fair shake but he hasn't been a success so far. Sometimes it takes a player a full year to gel with a team. We can only hope but I can't see anyone wanting him either ... but you never know. Also I like Garland but I'm not sure where he fits in. He hasn't seemed to gel with anyone yet. Hopefully Miller and Boeser trades would fill an X or two in and then we sign a couple of UFA's next year. Trading Myers sure would help the cap situation. Considering we have 5 RD's it's a loss we could theoretically handle. He's got two years after this one but he showed how valuable he could be in the playoffs during the bubble. He might be desirable to the right team.
  9. Hmmm, what is that weird shiny thing 3rd from the right?
  10. That was truly awful to watch. My dad and brother both had bets on the Canucks. I keep feeling like I need to apologize. Like some friend of mine behaved inappropriately at a party or something.
  11. This just reinforces that changes are needed. What horrible plays all through the last half of the game. We were very lucky to win the game after trying desperately to give it away. Oh well much needed anyway. Bigger one coming up!
  12. I did update it to Schnieder, Chytil, Cuylle/Othmann, 2nd but Schnieder, Chytil, 1st, low prospect gives us that first rounder
  13. What if they say okay but he's on our no-no list so it'll have to be Schnieder, Chytil, 2nd, 5th Edit: Or more friendly for us. Schnieder, Chytil, Cuylle/Othmann, 2nd
  14. Oh yeah I definitely would too but I was being ultra realistic if that's the best we can get minus the "untouchables lol", it's still a pretty decent package. I'd say Schneider is definitely more probable then the Kakko, or Lafreniere, as they would pretty much minimize the rest of the assets in the deal.
  15. Would be sweet but that just kills the whole point of the deal from their standpoint. They are in win now mode, they can't take on a $3 million in dead cap for a player that might not make their starting line-up. The whole point in Miller is he's a $5.25m contract, not $7.9m. Dickie also has 2 more years left.
  16. Lundqvist, Chytil, Kravstov, 1st. I'd strongly consider taking that package and move on.
  17. We'll see. It's also possible NY goes another direction or changes their mind on Miller or their direction after the playoffs, Maybe they change their mind after seeing the rest of our season. Miller's value is at an all-time high. I wouldn't necessarily say that offer will still be on the table in 3 months. Pretty risky waiting if you we're going to accept it anyway.
  18. I wouldn't normally make any predications until the stretch drive but I'll say Minnesota Colorado, or maybe St. Louis. Calgary is in the middle of a hot streak and like I said Vegas has had some serious issues this year. I predict it will be two Central teams.
  19. Could literally be anyone. Still 30 games left. Possibly more trades and the progress in Eichel will be very telling. Vegas hasn't been overly great this year. Very beatable right now.
  20. Big bodies are fine but they need to be able to play hockey. MacEwen is an absolutely horrible player, he makes me want to out there. So gawd no, rather have Dowling. Gadjovich still has 2 assists in 26 games and while young looks as bad as MacEwan. Ugggg. I have absolutely zero problem getting rid of these guys. I also can't wait until Bailey is gone. Size doesn't make a hockey player. Our fourth line is great, why replace them with these bums?
  21. Remember Hippy these are just the fans and media, not the the actual people (GM) doing the trading. These guys are basically the NY version of the idiots at Canucks Army.
