We do make the playoffs, exit in round 1 or 2. Miller walks for a 7x8.5mil contract elsewhere. We have a winner!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The core learns what it takes to win in the playoffs and builds off that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 All of the trade proposal ideas for Miller over the last 6 months, dreaming of adding some good prospects, 1st round draft pick, good young players. Now it looks like JR/PA are prepared to take a swing at playoffs with Miller and then if he walks at the end of the season, oh well. Heck of a gamble. I don't think a Miller trade is going to happen. JR/PA are probably afraid how the team will do without him. I guess no playoffs and Miller walking after next season would be considered a disaster, huh? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s been problem with Canucks in last 7 years there okay with scraping by and losing in 1st round. If we don’t feel like we have deep team to go deep aim for high picks prospects. That’s why I’d be okay with sucking without miller for prospects picks and assists in deepest draft in last 10 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we actually win a cup, Miller walking (playoffs or no playoffs) would be a disaster in asset management. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean this core roster has missed the Playoffs two years in a row, they ain’t winning the cup here and now. So, yes we have to look to the future. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasCanuck Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Eastern teams like NJ, NYI, NYR, Carolina, Philadelphia etc, all need to keep pace with the Panthers now. There are still trade partners out there for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sure they’re tired of losing and are desperate to win a sweepstakes for once. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, regardless of where we are in the standings, if Miller hasn’t signed by the trade deadline, I’d trade him. If he hits UFA next summer, he’s gone. He’s too valuable to lose for nothing, even if it means a playoff run. Hope he signs but fully prepared to trade him if he doesn’t. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Rumour has it that Carolina offered Necas in a package for Tkachuk. He might be a available. A package of Necas and Morrow would be a great return. Still think Carolina might be our best trading partner. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida removed a top pairing D on top of Huberdeau and had already lost Marchment. They also still need to clear cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 I have wondered whether Mgmt would accept something including a quasi-cap dump. Example: CBJ: Gustav Nyquist, Ceulemans, 2023 1st(say top-10 protection) Obviously the latter two pieces are what we'd want. But Nyquist is HALF the player JTM is, at a slightly higher cap hit. A piece we prob don't need at all. Is it a situation where we wouldn't have accepted such an offer up to now, but might as the 22-23 season gets close? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallstreetamigo Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 It’s entirely possible that the Canucks overplayed their hand in Miller. Not a ton of teams left who would pay the kind of prices he would have got at the deadline or the draft. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
