Really depends if Canucks go on a winning streak or not before TDL. Possibly. Or retain a mil or two etc. Point is, there's potential packages good enough that don't include Schneider/Laffy. So good in fact, we might need to add! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd do that trade if we had a taker for Lundqvist in exchange for a D who wasn't such a liability in his own zone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Roster redundancies have played a big part in the organizations struggles. It's not just about getting pieces, it's about getting the right pieces. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might be good but we don’t need another small puck moving defenseman. This is why I really want Schneider or someone like him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhippy Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Just keep in mind. Anyone we trade Miller for right now HAS to be able to make some sort of an impact or at least be able to keep the Canucks respectably in the race/hunt over the next 4 weeks post TDL. We can't be this close to the playoffs only to trade Miller and mail it in. It would take a management group with serious stones to trade their best(ish) player in a race this tight and not try to ensure the return pieces kept them in the hunt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awalk Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) Man Miller is so good..... Not making this an easy decision. Gotta think they are keeping him at this point. Edited March 10, 2022 by awalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 9 hours ago, DeNiro said: They’re less than 2 weeks from the trade deadline. Theres a good chance they already know the Rangers aren’t budging and aren’t gonna come close to what they’re asking for. Remember the Canucks don’t need to make a trade. Especially if teams are lowballing them. All these deals will be there in the summer, even more so with non playoff teams looking to make a splash. Rangers scout in attendance tonight as Miller pops off, I wouldn't be shocked if they upped the ante at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be two small, offensive Dmen in their top 4. How many recent cup winners have two sub six foot Dmen on their rosters, let alone in their top 4?

You know what cup winners have? Really good defense cores who can move the puck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the right pieces. Doesn't much matter now anyways. Miller has effectively played himself off of the trade market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be so sure, a lot of that depends on what the teams around us do. Edmonton won tonight, LA continues to win and Calgary is likely out of reach. Anaheim and Vegas are still around. Minnesota and Nashville won last night, Dallas has been on a tear of late. If all we do is keep pace I wouldn't be remotely surprised to see him go. Particularly if a team antes up.

Verbeek made it clear that he can't afford to lose Manson, Lindholm and Rakell for nothing. He's trying to extend Lindholm but he doesn't want to give out too much term. Seravalli reported that Lehner is playing with a torn labrum in his shoulder which will require surgery at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegas has dealt with injuries all season, they're in it til they're not. They're more likely to try and grab a goalie than sell, or they'll stand pat. Edmonton will go for it, LA and Calgary are teams I don't see us catching. Minnesota, Nashville, Dallas, and Winnipeg are all jockeying for a central/wildcard spot. Even with Miller playing like he has our playoff odds are still mostly dependent on how the teams around us play. Winning is fun, but we'll lose games too.
