Trades
1.
VAN
  1. Coghlan, Dylan [RFA Rights]
CAR
  1. Garland, Conor
Additional Details:
I do think he should get a better return but I don't think GMs would give up much due to how much the Canucks need cap space and with how the price of wingers with term dropped. Carolina seems like a team that would swoop in and grab him for almost nothing
2.
VAN
  1. Kuznetsov, Evgeny
  2. Lapierre, Hendrix
  3. 2024 3rd round pick (WSH)
Additional Details:
Vancouver does downgrade now but saves long term money and adds a young centre which is what they've been asking for
WSH
  1. Miller, J.T.
  2. Studnicka, Jack
Additional Details:
Done on draft day prior to Miller's extension kicking in

Washington gets the better player to help them bounce back after their reset and gets a reclamation project
3.
VAN
  1. Pettersson, Marcus
  2. 2023 3rd round pick (NJD)
Additional Details:
Pittsburgh gives the 3rd for the retention
PIT
  1. Boeser, Brock ($2,650,000 retained)
4.
VAN
  1. Fabbro, Dante
Additional Details:
Fabbro needs a fresh start and it looks like Nashville has replaced him with Foote
NSH
  1. Rathbone, Jack
  2. 2024 3rd round pick (VAN)
Additional Details:
Rathbone also needs a fresh start and Nashville is really good at developing defenceman
5.
VAN
  1. 2024 7th round pick (ARI)
ARI
  1. Myers, Tyler
Additional Details:
This trade happens before his 5 million dollar bonus. Arizona can get above the cap floor without paying a lot of money. Arizona can also retain half of his salary and deal him at the deadline as a pending UFA

The team isn't any better imo, really I think it takes a few steps back. Trading Garland for nothing is a very unwise move. We don't need to mvoe cap that desperately.

I doubt any team would want Miller now since they missed their opportunity at last year's trade deadline. Also, his contract won't age well.

You can say that again.

(1) If the Canucks need cap space that desperately, why is he retaining on Boeser?
(2) If the Canucks need cap space that desperately, why is there almost $4.9 million of it here?

Garland would make sense if his cap hit was about a million dollars less. Carolina needs to address the top end of the offense. Garland doesn't do that. If he was a little cheaper to throw on the 3rd line, yeah they probably do this. But this could greatly impact their ability to fix the scoring woes

Caps decline. Kuzy for Miller straight up is the best deal they’d get.

If they did all these moves to retool their defense the new narrative in Vancouver would be their lack of scoring up front, you're robbing too much from Peter to pay Paul.

Canes would have to accept that, but I’ve gone the completely opposite direction on Garland. I thought he’d be a perfect fit when he was on the Yotes…but I don’t think he fits what the Canes want to do.

The Canes have plenty of undersized forwards that can do what Garland can do. They need something different.

Pens decline any deal that involves moving Pettersson. He is their only LD with any real experience signed next season.

The Miller trade ship has sailed. Van is looking for a top 4 lhd, 3c and a backup goalie.

ROFL that is the best response to an accidental double post I have ever had. Props to that!
