I know it's been all but confirmed Miller isn't going anywhere until at least the offseason, but it won't stop some people from being pissed I'm sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to assume we didn't get an offer worthwhile and look forward to seeing the return this summer. Motte should likely be gone or re-signed though. And I wouldn't hate news of a Halak or Dickinson trade. Hamonic was a good start yesterday, now they need to keep rolling. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 I expect him to stay til the offseason, that's when I figure he'll be moved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87Crosby Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 As much as I would love for him to be moved today (I want action, I want to see us get assets and of course, I would love to see trades) but if the return is going to be better later, than it makes sense not to. Also kind of feel that by trading him we would make ourselves worse and make our picks better which might be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if we're not getting the better return now, there's no point in moving him now. If all we're getting is "summer value", we can just move him... In the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Would have to be a ridiculous offer to move him at this point. Ala Byram/Newhook/Pick I expect this to be resolved in the offseason one way or another Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKSR Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 I'm surprised NYR haven't done anything at all... they'll get steamrolled by the Florida teams if they meet in the playoffs at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wai_lai416 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 i wouldn't be surprised miller doesn't get traded.. his production's been great and he pretty much played himself out of the trade market although i still won't mind trading him in the off season. i wouldn't be surprise the canucks end up doing nothing other than either trading or re-signing motte..

Rangers should be going all in these next two years. Their best players, by far, aren't the young guys (except Fox). They are the older guys, like Krieder, Panarin, Zibinijad. If they think they will be better in two years they are totally wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKSR Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 Can't wait to hear all the GMJB haters defending JR/PA about how not moving any of Boeser, Garland, Myers, Miller, Motte, Halak, Dickinson, Poolman, or Pearson was a smart move. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Agreed, at the same time though I wasn't expecting to have to pay a 3rd for a struggling Dermott who was basically not trusted anymore in Laff land either...I was thinking a 5th at most would be what it would take as moving Dermott HELPED laffs clear 1.5m in cap space for this season AND next season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guntrix Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) The Dermott acquisition suggests we're buyers (lol) so I don't think Miller's moving right now. I'll refrain from passing judgment for the time being, but I sure hope posters hold JR/PA accountable if this backfires on them. Inb4 Miller for Simmonds, Liljegren and a 5th is deemed a masterclass trade. Edited March 21, 2022 by guntrix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 They don’t fail if they can’t trade Miller, Garland, or Boeser. Those moves can always be done later . They would fail if they don’t move or re-sign Motte, and move at least one of Pearson, Poolman, Dickinson, and Halak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
