I would not be surprised if he retires before he’s 30, or 25. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timråfan Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Can we give a little discount if he takes Halek, Poolman and Dickinson with him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying it wouldnt be a risk, it would........but it by could be a franchise changing payoff if it worked out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving a guy like Miller and taking a huge risk in Byram would be foolish. If Byram was a secondary or third piece in a package, that's completely different. For example, if he came in a package that included Newhook, I'd be good with that. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're talking about a potential franchise dman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the ref missed the clear elbow right in the face and it was pure accidental as horvat was leaning backward bracing for a hit facing away from byram but regardless his elbow caught him flush in the face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This article was less than 2 months ago... he has a LONG way to go before becoming a Norris caliber defenceman lmao "I can't play and feel like this" https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/report-avalanches-byram-told-father-cant-play-feel-like/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how good Byram is Like I said, I don't think he's worthless, but he cannot be the centrepiece of a package deal. The other piece needs to be the main piece, and Byram as a secondary piece. People touting Miller for Byram, "some middling NHLer", and a late 1st is a terrible deal for the Canucks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the laugh at the end seems a little rude. This is a 20 year old kids future we're talking about (and a fellow BC boy at that). I feel like that warrants a little compassion for the situation. But that's just me. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
