I get that, but between Vancouver vs NY for raising a family? Vancouver wins out 9 times out of 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks Curse Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 IMO- unless JR gets blown away with a deal, I would essentially keep the team together and let them have another go at it next season with Petey hopefully out of his funk, a full year of bruce, hogz and podz, one year older, Hamonic (if you cannot move him) hopefully not a train wreck ideally in off season make minor tweaks to move pool man, Pearson and Dickinson out for some well scouted UFAs on cheaper contracts... if we are not clearly in playoff picture next year, trade miller, garland and blow it up while keeping Hughes, demko as untouchables.

Having visited frequently outside of NY "upstate" as they seem to call anything outside of the city. I can say it's actually beautiful and quite affordable. As well as being on the east coast with a far easier schedule and much more accessible travel. Better schools etc. It has amazing appeal for people of any age.

Warhippy Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Seems Rags fans are super hesitant to give away Othman and Cuylle and are set on just giving away Chytil/Kravtsov and Lundkvist. But Othman, Cuylle, Schneider, Baron and Lafrenier are 100% off limits to the fan base. So essentially Raymond, Ballard and a 3rd is what they are willing to offer up for anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outsiders Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 (edited) Othmann, Schneider and 2nd rounder Miller Thoughts? Maybe we take a cap dump back or retain on Miller? If NYR dont want to cough up one of KK or AL they have to be willing to trade multiple B level prospects. Lundqvist is redundant with Rathbone and Hughes... Chytil is a 3C at best and is showing signs of decline... Which is worrisome. Kravtsov is a KHL unknown who wasn't good enough to make the Rangers and went back to Russia. Character issues. If I were the Canucks I wouldn't even pick up the phone from Dury until 3 days before the deadline. In fact, if I was Rutherford these offers would be straight up disrespectful Edited February 15, 2022 by Outsiders 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunqvist comes with more of a premier forward. Schneider comes with little less of a forward. I personally like the idea of getting Kakko or Lafreniere. Perfect LW to play with Petey. And Lundqvist is a good defenceman, probably not going to be Hughes' partner but will be useful on this team. We can find Hughes' partner via some other means.

DeNiro Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 The Rangers are the ones hot for Miller. JR didn’t call them… If they think they can offer their scraps for Miller go look for a first line forward somewhere else. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more inclined to think some of the proposals I've seen in this thread are more accurate than what Rags fans would pay. They want a player like Miller without giving up a single top prospect of young player, ain't happening. Their second tier top prospects of youth, valuable or not, aren't going to be enough. 25 minutes ago, DeNiro said: The Rangers are the ones hot for Miller.

If it’s true that the Rangers called the Canucks about Miller, then they’re the ones that are wanting him. Well, second tier scraps aren’t going to do it for us, that’s obvious. If I’m JR, I’d still insist on Schneider being the centre piece of any deal. They can throw in Kravtsov, but no way in hell should he be the centre piece of any deal for Miller. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
