In not one world does a Miller trade become a fix all for the Canucks. None. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really so your saying 2nd overall Wright plus Zacha 3 mil zadarov 3.5 So next year with Wright zacha zadarov in our lineup without jt isn’t better?

Then you take a d-man at #15. If Wright doesn't go #1 then I'd do that trade, but I personally don't see it as enough to get Slaf or anyone else rated near the top. I mean, it does free up a ton of cap space to sign someone else as well, but that would be a tough gamble. I'm torn on Miller straight up for #2.

With their young depth down the middle I could easily see NJ taking Slavkovsky. He'd compliment their center talent and could play immediately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think maybe my point wasn't terribly clear: If Montreal doesn't take Wright and he's available at #2 then I would do that trade Miller for 2OA in order to draft Wright, but if Wright goes #1 then I wouldn't, as I don't think Miller straight up to get Slav or anyone else is enough. I agree NJ would likely take Slavy if Wright goes #1, as he fits what they need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, the more interesting question is what do you do if the offer is NJ #1 next year unprotected for Miller + ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, a lottery ticket would be nice, but for all we know NJ could progress and that pick doesn't hit and we just traded Miller + for 10OA. Too big of a risk, especially when it sounds like teams are starting to bid on Miller right now. I sense that Allvin & Co will be getting either a super high-quality or super high-quantity return for Miller very soon. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That team has so much potential if they trade for a goalie. If we make that trade, I could see the next move is them trading for Gibson and us picking in the middle of the round.

Not sure I'd do it either, but imagine JR contemplating the potential of getting the next 'Crosby' for this organization? That would be tempting.

Screw Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 I’m really hoping the Canucks obtain 2nd OA from NJD. I think that will be huge and the timing of that player’s development will be on track with the rest of the young guys. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
