Cause they've been trying to since the start of the offseason. He's been in basically every trade rumor mill there is. I said a second because that's what the rumored asking price is.

Thread: Likeliest Horvat Destinations

As a pure rental there are lots of teams that would be interested. But VAN should maximize value by trying to deal him to a team that would want an extension in place. CBJ is a good fit for that, maybe WSH.

Gardiner is not going to be elig for LTIR. Although give him time.

I mean, there’s barely anything of value in their. There’s no top 4 D, no 2023 first, and no top prospect. Vancouver doesn’t need all three but I imagine they need two

I can guarantee you Miller gets a lot more than a middle 6 rental, bottom pair RHD, okay prospect, and a 3rd. It’s been reported his return will likely top Fiala’s return, or match it at worst

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boldirev</b></div><div>The Garland trade makes no sense for Vancouver at all short term or long term.

I don't think garland is a player that the leafs would move knies for, but I understand your reasoning.

Thread: Miller Gone and Filling out roster

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boldirev</b></div><div>I get why people like Marino, but he’s pretty average. He fills a need and is the right age but others may ultimately have a higher ceiling.</div></div>

Totally fair. I'm not super high on him either. I do think he improves the defence though and provides Quinn with a stable partner for at least the next 5 years (starting this year). Whereas those higher ceiling prospects may not be viable partners for Quinn until 23/24 or 24/25, I guess I am a little impatient and want VAN to compete for a playoff spot this year

Thread: Canucks outlier roster moves

Really good idea with the Pearson/Donskoi swap. That's exactly the type of trade Vancouver should be looking for imo - get rid of Pearson, Dickinson, and Poolman by looking for guys on worse AAV but 1 year term remaining.

Thread: Brown Zaitsev out Lyubushkin Burakovsky Garland in

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Claesson4Norris</b></div><div>I think at some point someone has to be touchable. On the roster I have 2,7,9,18,19 and 72 as your untouchable core, and for prospects I have Sandy, Greig and Pinto, as well as one of the two top RHD prospects. You can't bring in Quality if you're afraid of giving quality in return, and Ottawa NEEDS to bring in quality this summer.</div></div>

I'm 100% with you, but a lot hinges on this coming draft. If either of the top 2 RHD fall to #7, I'm willing to flip guys. Otherwise, Ottawa has F depth (to me Greig is a top 6 with a little seasoning). The top 3 are Greig, JBD, Thomson. After that go crazy, but those positions and qualities are so hard to acquire.

Thread: Is it realistic - read description

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boldirev</b></div><div>Kapanen has so much game, he is include in almost every trade on this site. Tell you what, Myers has a lot of game too, sounds like a match made in heaven. IF Marino is the guy, Poulin and the 2023 are coming too.</div></div>

If the pens knew they could bring Miller back after next season, it would be more of an option. But for what is currently just a one year rental, this isn't a bad return. I think the return you are after is coming from a team with the knowledge he wants to stay and the ability to sign him long term which is just not the Pens at this point.

Thread: Is it realistic - read description

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CHUG</b></div><div>Miller is a rental at this point and Marino would end up the top RHD in Van playing with Quinn. Both him and Kapanen fit the Canucks window a lot better than Miller along with whoever they get with the 1st. Maybe a prospect like Legare could be added in or something more if the Canucks retain salary, but overall, I don't think it's a terrible deal considering how every Canucks post I see has them chasing after Marino.</div></div>

I would do Boeser or garland for Marino but definitely not miller

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JustanIdea</b></div><div>That's always the argument on this site but when everyone is overvaluing a player then the majority is saying that's what is value is. It's been only Canuck fans on this site that have Garland going for the 7TH OA pick +.

Like if you look at other teams that are trading for Garland they'll be more reasonable cause they don't have a considerable bias towards the players.</div></div>

I have not seen a single Canuck fan asking for the 7OA + for Garland in any ACGM's, there is no such bias

Thread: Leafs5

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LFRS</b></div><div>What you want and what you get often diverge in the trade market, wouldn't take the magic number of 4 assets as gospel. He will try to get the best value possible, as any GM does - could be 3 pieces could be 4.

I think more than anything the Kapanen deal cemented Rutherford has a fairly spotty track record valuing assets & trading (and drafting for that matter). He's no doubt past his best before date.

Regardless, Its a fair proposal for Miller and may or may not be enough to get it done.</div></div>

Good thing Ruthford isn’t our GM. Patrik Allvin is
