That’s got to be 7 million x 8 years? 7.5 x 8 years? Guy saying the Canucks are just waiting on Miller. Huh?! 8 years? It has to be at $7 or $7.25. If it's $8, then I guess they're hooped.

Solid, size pretty consistent 35-40 points BUT aging and has peaked, not a fast skater and not getting better. I don't think he fits going forward. He does have some value in a trade though. Höglander is quicker, younger, more potential and shows a great work ethic. So he will progress. Question is, will he start the season in Abby to round out his defensive game. That will dictate if they feel that Pearson stays or goes. That’s the smart move imo. He probably could have spent last year in Abby too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller's leadership and presence is the what this team will miss the most, above all the scoring, physicality, and versatility that he brings. What have some of you been watching? The guy literally yells and smashes his stick at team mates, mails it in on the backcheck, tries to dangle through everybody on his own, during the covid year he didn't even attempt to put in an effort, he glided around and collected a paycheck and thought it was okay because their were no fans in the building. Amazing player but he's a giant baby and he's not a leader 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what I’m thinking as well. 8yrs but Canucks offering low $7Ms but Miller wants $8M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised JT's agent isn't willing to do that. But just have to accept it for what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AV. Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I'd imagine the talk of 8 years on the table is at a comparatively lower AAV than what Miller would be looking for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal:thecup Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 27 minutes ago, mll said: In his presser that was just streamed live, Fitzgerald says that to trade 2nd overall it would take a player in the same age group as their pillars - he has been calling Hughes/Hischier their pillars for quite some time now. He also says they have never had talks about trading Bratt. Yeah, I've always thought that "2OA is available for the right trade" or whatever it was, was bait for Quinn and still don't think NJ needs Miller. If Quinn were on the table, it would take a lot more than 2OA to pry him away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker 67 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 How could they possibly? Bo is due a deserved raise next year. Pettersson, Podkolzin and Rathbone become RFAs in 3 years. Then they have current high salaries in OEL, Myers, Boeser, Pettersson and Hughes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
