@Coconutsgetting a second 1st round pick is possible but it would come in at 20 OA or upwards. What bottom 10 team has a need for anything we have to offer , that said there’s only 1 season to try and off load Miller to address the deficiency on the back end and that should take precidence over over acquiring a 2 nd 1st round pick. Which would be high they go with the one 1st rd and dump Miller and sweeteners via trade.

I mean, a lower 1st in a good draft still nets you a good prospect.
I don't think moving Miller would require sweeteners, it'd just retire taking cap back. He's producing and could probably continue to for another team, but he doesn't fit our timeline. I think we could still get a net positive return for Miller, it just probably wouldn't be what we could have gotten at the deadline.
Say.. Miller for Lysell and Coyle from Boston to make the cap work. We get a big stopgap center and a great prospect, Coyle only has three years left on his deal after this year instead of seven, and we save 2.75M a season in cap space. Boston gets a top six center to replace a probably retiring Bergeron and Krejci and his cost isn't significantly larger than what they'd pay Coyle.
