JK is turning into a heck of a good player. And he’d be our second line centre locked in to a 4.8 mil cap hit for 7 more years. He’s one guy I’d hope we could get for Miller. Canes will never do that deal though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed carolina is willing to do a block buster with us involving Aho 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTM + 11OA for Aho. Not enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play hard, win, hopefully make the list season and start building to being a competitor. That takes awhile and Miller just doesn't fit that timeline 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkSave Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 I love Miller's game and what he brings to this team. I just don't see the same MGMT group who chose him over Bo, moving on from him this early on in the deal. With that said, anything is possible, just not sure it's plausible. Pretty apparent JT wants to be a Canuck. If he were to be moved out it would take a kings ransom! His game is built for the ploffs and we can move out cap elsewhere if needed. This would be my reaction if JT is traded prior to the start of next season. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ol' scratch was obvious despite the denials by him and Alvin. Being in play and actually being traded are 2 different things. Never hurts to listen on offers and protect the asset. All things considered, a team wanting to add Miller would have to pony up big time. I also think Tocchet will have a big say on what happens with Miller. If he sees him as an integral part of what he is trying to build here, just one more reason for Miller to remain a Canuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed and I don't think they'd be looking to "dump" him, but if teams come asking with a solid offer, I'd bet they'd take it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Calgary/Florida deal was massive for both organizations and had huge risks involved for both teams. Vegas has been making massive moves since they were created. From big trades to get Eichel to signing guys like Pietro to dumping their all star goalie for nothing. That team feels like it immediately established a reputation of going for the cup no matter the cost. Carolina got unlucky with injuries sure, but they themselves acknowledge the need for more scoring, so I bet you they wish they did something more around that (and likely will this offseason). So sure not a ton a deadline moves this year maybe, but these teams are taking risks and have made big moves over the past few years to try and build a championship team. If anything Calgary took a risk, trading a young RFA for two aging players and look how that turned out for them. Carolina would be in the same boat as Calgary, if they trade for Miller. Vegas indeed took a risk with Eichel, but again he was 24-yrs old. Not a player in his 30s, who has term on his contract, that will handicap them in the future. Pietrangelo was a free asset in FA.

cripplereh Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 I won't be shocked if he stays with us but the way a few teams lost early in the playoffs I think teams will call about him.Make it more then 5 teams now interested. If we can move our BB,Myers and Garland.Well two of them we will keep Miller unless a team calls with an offer of a lifetime. I'd be happy either way. Just don't think he will move unless the price is right. And that's the bottom line! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all anyone knows Huberdeau and Weegar tear it up again next year. Both are still in their 20s- far from aging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Québec City deserves a team. I know at the end of the day it's about the market size, and money, revenue, etc. But how legit would it be to have the Nordiques back in Québec City. Reignite that rivalry with the Canadiens! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We finally have a player in JT that plays with fire and is a steady point producer and people want to trade him. Blah, blah, he will age poorly, blah, blah, contract kicks in when he's 30. Cap will go up eventually and his monies will be fine. JT and EP are perfect leaders together and will lead in different ways. The new frik and frak. Keep JT, love that guy and can't wait to hopefully see playoff JT next year. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
