I’m sure getting a first line center/winger that’s producing at a PPG for two outcast prospect projects and a fourth round pick is optimal.

You can’t just get players for free… change that fourth to a first and throw in Schneider. Lafrenier as well for wasting Allvin’s time

Lundkvist/Chytil nowhere near "outcasts", both NHL quality players/prospects. The real issue with this deal is that the NYR should look nowhere near Miller, should be after Boeser or Pettersson.

Definitely need to add on the Miller trade, however don't let VAN fans tell you you need to include Schneider lmao. They're obsessed and unreasonable, we're not sending them our top prospect for one year of Miller.

I spoke too soon 😂

That's a massive underpay for Miller. Change the 4th to a 1st and even then its probably not enough

IMO the trade starts with Lundqvist (or Schneider) and a 1st plus one more piece to close it out. I get both fan bases obsession with Schneider, but Lundqvist has a ton of upside too, just different tangibles. The extra piece will make or break the deal. It's doubtful Lafreniere or Kakko are part of this as it would have to be a much bigger deal (Garland/Schenn?) and it probably doesn't make sense from a NYR perspective to do this. There is a good chance this trade happens though and it will be interesting to see how it breaks down.

I agree with this optimalness

You know it takes two teams to agree on a trade right? If that’s the offer Canucks counter with Pearson Myers and chiasson for laf schneider and kravtsov

ok. didnt ask for your opinion. There is a reason why the title says "optimal" in it

Chytil is not. The guy has played 200+ NHL games and hasn't really shown any improvement. Idk why Vancouver would be interested in him.

Chytil is very bad. Lundqvist is good but not enough to get Miller. This trade is atrocious for Vancouver
