NSH declines. The only add they might be looking at for the bottom six would be a 4C - they're set at wing on the lower lines.

Just take Dal Colle, but Isles do not have room for Dickinson.

Seriously, where is everyone getting this notion that Motte has so much value?

And in this particular case, I'd ask the same about Miller. Yikes.

What makes motte worth a 2nd? Seriously want to know. It isn’t his production

Canuck fan pipe dream. Schneider is not available.

He's not.
Not to get too mushy but... the thing is, Vancouver fans have watched a lifeless, unenergetic, boring, bad team for 8 years and Tyler Motte is the complete opposite of that on every single shift he plays. He's a superb penalty killer, hits, skates fast, tops in the D zone. He knows his role, he plays it well and doesn't try to be anything that a bottom 6 grinder, and he's damn good at it. And he was the one VERY rare trade where Benning traded a veteran (Tomas Vanek) for a younger player with potential, like GM's are supposed to do.

TO Vancouver fans, Motte represents a bright spot through the 8 years of darkness. To Vancouver fans he's legitimately worth a 2nd because of how he won over the fan base through one of the roughest patches in recent team memory. I would honestly be heartbroken if he gets traded because there's no situation where the return would match what he means to us.

Motte is scoring at a 15g pace playing 4th line minutes and is a good PKer so yeah he has value, maybe for like 59th pick in the draft or whatever.

We don’t wan Miller for that price.

Your math is little off, bud. He'd be on a 13 goal pace over 82 games, but he's already missed 15 games. And he's never hit double digits. And his career Corsi is 43.5 (this season he's all the way up to 44.2). Who knows? Maybe somebody gives a 2nd, but I see no reason to think he is worth that. His type are a dime a dozen.
