wai_lai416 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 1 hour ago, Elias Pettersson said: He's actually more expensive for next year, but will be cheaper for one year after that. He could be a good short term option. However, Miller is a better player at this point of their careers. Do the Rangers want to gamble and trade for the inferior player or do they want to trade for the better player and take their best shot for the Cup? Lol how is scheifele a gamble and a inferior player? He’s been over a ppg guy for 6 years in a row vs Miller coming off a career year only 2 years above ppg and inferior ppg every other year? I don’t see miller a better player at this point if anything scheifele is a far more consistent player. They are similar at best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this moment in time Miller is the better player. Doesn't matter what Scheifele did 3 years ago, or even 2 years ago. And how do you know Miller has even peaked? What if he can get you 110 points?

We'd still need a 3C in that scenario but... Petterson, Horvat, Podkolzin Kuzmenko, Copp, Boeser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobayashi Maru Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Copp - No - Will be overpaid Strome - No - Doesn’t fit a strong need. Put the money to D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobayashi Maru Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I’d rather take a chance on Zacha at around 3M (Requires an acquisition cost too) vs Copp at 5.5M. Doubt Copp would exceed that contract but Zacha might. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy is another good option too. Different type of player but will depend on acquisition cost too. Either way I’d rather go that direction and keep our 3C in the 3M range.

Handedness Not a huge issue if we have lazar as 4C but top 3 C all being lefties isn’t ideal ideal. And the AAV he signs for in super curious. It would have to be 5 or preferably below in the 4s to work with our team I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He legitimately messed with the Canucks prospect pool with his poor drafting and development, which has far greater ramifications than whatever Benning did. There's a reason why no other team has taken him back on, despite his successes in Vancouver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Gillis to be fair he left us with absolutely nothing, but I don’t fault him for it as it did get us 1 win from the cup and 2 presidents trophies. The time was right to go all in. He did leave us with absolutely nothing in the end though and that is a fact. Edited July 2, 2022 by canuck73_3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love to "help them out" with their cap. We get Roy and take back Brossoit (cap) and send them like a 3rd or equivalent prospect + Ferland's LTIR (they'll already be operating in LTIR with Weber). Add to that if we can get Hague too. Edited July 2, 2022 by aGENT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 (edited) I figured Stome would be walking months ago, a bit surprised to see Copp exploring free agency though. Which means his ask is likely higher than folks might expect, Rangers really seemed to like him. Edited July 2, 2022 by Coconuts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
