<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Logan_Ollivier</b></div><div>You should do one where you trade both Miller and Boeser. You are bang on though, this team isn't a real contender. Or even close to it. Many Canuck fans see Budreau as this guy who made the team great but that's misleading. They are very streaky under Budreau. Started off with a huge run of wins and then Jan through March you were a 500 team. Then another streak in April. In both streaks you beat a lot of bad teams.

The reality is Benning put together a deeply flawed roster with major cap issues. Lots of bad contracts with term as well. I think moving those out and having a bad year next year (and should have been this year) and you would be on the path to be a contender the season after next. Jumping the gun on rebuilds is always a bad idea.</div></div>

Agreed. It's why I am happy we have our new FO. Benning would have absolutely taken this upturn in form as a reason to go all in and trade for another albatross contract. Hopefully, Rutherford and Allvin can look at the bigger picture

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Canucks33</b></div><div>I've proposed these exact trades before. Apparently management wants to shake up the locker room chemistry, which to me sounds like Miller and/or Boeser are gone.

I think the Avalanche could be a good partner for a Miller trade. Say they don't make it to the Finals and Kadri walks, Miller (with an extension) makes a lot of sense. Newhook or Byram would be the main piece coming back along with a 1st.

I don't see the point of keeping Garland if we are trading Boeser. Boeser is the better player, so if we are moving him then we might as well collect even more assets by moving Garland too</div></div>

I dont think Colorado will trade Byram or Newhook but I would like it

I would prefer we keep Garland. There isn't a rush to trade him and I would prefer we let him settle a bit more
