Maddogy Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Teams like Calgary, Florida and Colorado are expected to shed players this offseason due to cap issues. This would further lower Miller's value. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, and not on the basis that such offer doesn't exist, but from today's lateral move while saving a little cap space, it most likely means Management / Ownership wants to retool rather than properly rebuild... seen this story a million times, and guess we're right back at it, just with a different guy executing Aqua's vision. Looks like Vancouver will do everything to re-sign Miller this off-season. Only way I see Miller traded is if he clearly informs Management this summer he isn't coming back. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Dizzle Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 1 hour ago, Fanuck said: Agreed that his is value will go down slightly after the TDL simply because the team acquiring him loses a year (more like a playoff season really) of club controlled cost. Nevertheless his value will still be higher than any pending UFA - especially if he keeps up this torrid pace to the end. That said ive never been in camp where I feel we need to rob the other team blind in order to get a trade done. My personal belief is that JT is at his career peak right now, and maybe he stays there for 1-3 seasons, but he absolutely will inevitably decline. I'd be happy with the equivalent of a 1st, a young stud blue-chip roster d-man, and an exceptional blue-chip non-roster forward. @aGENT gets credit here but…. 1st, Barron, Newhook would be a nice package if we moved him. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be cool with that. Barron seems like a better fit for us than Lundqvist imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time we re tooled when we should have rebuilt properly our core was in their mid to late 30s. These guys are young. Re tooling is the right thing to do 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toyotasfan Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 This season, maybe next season , but this is the limit, the ceiling. Miller will never equal the point totals he will record in his next 82 games in any point in his remaining career. If a first rounder or Lafrenier or Kako are available, I would take the deal. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxNaslundxX Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 If Laffy and Schneider are available I'd do it Just in terms of asset management. Turn a pick Into miller who becomes even better that then turns back into the 1st Oa prospect and the RHD we want. Will miss miller but longer term I think we're good 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post aGENT Posted March 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2022 Seriously though. If I have to read one more "our record under Bruce" comment... This team is not good enough. Sell vets and build. 2 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh we get it. We've lived it many years and JR was never a rebuild guy. Aquaman has always been a retool guy. Gravy for the playoffs, n'am saying? That still doesn't mean we can't be rightfully demanding a change for the result we have witnessed for almost a decade now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
combover Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Miller value is so high it’s a sellers market like everything in BC It’s time to gouge the desperate . we are in a position to actually retool we weren’t 8years ago we didn’t have the high value vets and top tier up and comers. sell high and build a CUP contender not a veteran capped out UFA wildcard failure. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
