Canucks fan needs Pray Russian factor kicks in and we leave with minty

Does that apply with Minty? He's already playing in the Ohl, not Russia. If your're just worried about getting players out of the country in general, I think that will be a short term problem.

Sure sounds like the Raggedy Andy’s offer is less now.  Krapsoft instead of Chytil and a second now instead of their first (which they don’t have anymore). 

The Washington offer is very good.  

Washington’s offer is getting closer but still doesn’t solve our needs.

 

No right shot D or legit top 6 forward. We don’t need bottom 6 role players.

Maybe Meyers will mentor him in the ways of giraffe

Look up how Giraffes fight. Pickering would have to step his neck game up if he wants to become the team alpha Giraffe.

Not for Miller we don’t.

We still have Horvat and Petey down the middle for the top two lines. McMichael has future top 6 potential and fills our current need at 3c. Getting both McMichael and Lapierre would allow us to shift our draft focus on a defenseman as well. So in the long run, it definitely fills our needs. The guy is what, 20/21 years old? Saying "we don't need to trade Miller for 3rd liners" is a bit of a dig.... considering they are still technically prospects. 

 

I don't think we can be THAT picky with our return.

I have heard that due to the drama around this possible trade, that it's being turned into a big budget movie, to be directed by Steven Spielberg with Tom Cruise playing JT Miller...

 

I mean, we've provided him with a 727 page script, what more could he want???

We need young guys who play hard and have skill.  Then we use the 20OA to pick Lambert.  Those three become our new third line and will push the top six for minutes.  We would be younger, faster, tougher, and better.

For one of the best player is the game?

No pressure to trade…

 

I sure hope they’re the pickiest with this.

Tell that to the peeps pushing the idea you need a top 3 pick to win the cup…

Colorado: Nathan MacKinnon
Tampa: Stamkos
St Louis -
Washington: Alexander Ovechkin
Pittsburgh: Fleury, Crosby
Chicago - Kane
LA -
Boston - 

1st overall not required, but it sure helps.

You kids Alf. 
no NHL experience. 
 

3rd and 4th lines can be assembled much more easily than trying to find a 99pt scorer.

I wouldn't call CM a third line role player.

Exactly.  McMichael is a likely top 6 and Lapierre is a likely middle 6.  Both C so gives us a ton of flexibility.  Yesterday we have Miller, tomorrow we could have McMichael, Lapierre, Pickering and Bischel.

 

we could also potentially package 15 and 20 for 5-7 and snag Jiricek.  All good options.

Yep need to be picky.

 

Theres better offers coming. No team makes their best offer this early.

Oh it’s no longer required. 
 

K got it.

 

because two days ago, a team had no chance without a top 3 in their lineup.

 

Good to know.
