Popular Post Odd. Posted November 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 24, 2021 Why does everyone have the urge to create trade proposals of Miller? He’s literally one of the best power forwards in the league right now, name me one true power forward in this league that’s out producing him. These types of players are so valuable in today’s NHL. Miller is the heart and soul of this rather soulless team. Without him, we wouldn’t even be talking about playoffs. Yet everyone wants to trade him for &^@#ing Fiala who’s nowhere even close as good as him. Miller is worth more than any return he could fetch. What he brings to this team is invaluable. We complain about our team lacking in the physical department, we complain we have no pushback, no grit, and yet some still want to trade the only player who plays like that on a nightly basis while being the primary contributor to this teams offense. if someone wants JT they better pay a kings ransom otherwise screw off. 6 1 4 1 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24K PureCool Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Cause high chance he is not re-signing with us. That is why people want him traded. Probably not now but definitely at the deadline or the draft. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSVII Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 (edited) Yeah I'm not a fan of trading away our top player even if we're down. We still have one year of a good cost controlled contract left on him, and if someone is giving us a 1st and RHD blue chip prospect as a start I would listen. Right now, the org needs to gauge where they are at honestly, and leadership choices have to be made with the President/GM/Coach. Then we gotta see if the players in the room are open to some sort of reset/retool. TLDR: A lot more evaluation and reflection, plus management moves need to happen first, trading him now would be kneejerk and counter productive.

khay Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Agree and I wanted Miller traded. Not for Fiala anyways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris12345 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I'd guess he doesn't want to play in Vancouver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember hearing last year he was sharing (renting) a place with another player? Hamonic I think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnarcore Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I am down to trade everyone but Podz, Petey, OEL, Hoglander and Garland if the return is right. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patel Bure Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 1) Horvat and Miller have very high value right now. 2) It’s unlikely that either guy re-signs here after July 1st 2023. 3) This season has proven that the Canucks are not in “win now” mode and should be thinking about replenishing their cupboards instead. Both Horvat and Miller would land you a 1st and/or elite prospects in independent deals. Figuring this out is actually pretty straightforward. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetterssonOrPeterson Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 We'll have to see but if this team doesn't do any better he might want to walk in FA himself. Go back home somewhere in the States. I wouldn't want to see him leave though. He's a heart and soul Kesler type of guy and is pretty crucial for our team.

Personally, I would add Hughes, Boeser, Rathbone, Klimovich, Demko, and Dipietro to this list of keepers. OEL and Myers as well due to their contracts. Basically, I would just focus on Horvat and Miller for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kesler was heart and soul as well until he publicly requested a trade and lowered his trade value. We better not do that with Miller.

Dipietro is expendable, seeing as you mentioned him, considering Demko is a top 5 goalie in the league and young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patel Bure Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 If Miller and Horvat can land us Filip Chytl, Braden Schneider, and Noah Dobson in independent deals (plus 1-2 added draft picks), then I think it would be a big win for our future.

I am open to trading Demko mostly so he can get a chance to win the cup cause it ain't happening with us while he is in his prime. I like Demko.
