I feel the same way about raising Horvat above his current 5.5.
Just by saying that, aren't you a "hater"?

I think the particular vernacular is “bitter bro”Just by saying that, aren't you a "hater"?
would be entertaining that we get Marino through NJ. Bahl will be interesting, and the first of course, lottery protected if its 2023.I can see NJ interested after Gaudreau and Tkachuk misses .
I think Fitz had his mind set on adding one more top 6 / top line forward.
Columbus isn’t moving Jiricek for Miller.JT Miller ($1.25m retained and extension pre-negotiated) and Hoglander
for
Roslovic and Jiricek
Thoughts?
Logic for trades;
Hurricanes need LD and have surplus RW. OEL at 5.5 makes sense for a team in win now mode
Devils are pretty much cap strapped at this juncture. We'd have to make other moves first or Vancouver is taking back dead money, and I'm not sure they are in a position to do thatI can see NJ interested after Gaudreau and Tkachuk misses .

If we’re dealing with Columbus, who I think is a great fit for Miller and has tons of pieces the Canucks would covet, Miller for Roslovic, Peeke, 1st is more realistic imo.JT Miller ($1.25m retained and extension pre-negotiated) and Hoglander

Curious what Columbus and Vancouver fans think of this proposal as a base for a trade. (Now, I understand that both sides will nitpick about one side or the other needing to add a draft pick here or there and that can't be helped)
This would be a cap-neutral transaction for both teams for this upcoming year and Columbus will be able to afford to extend Miller the following year with Nyquist coming off the books. Hoglander will likely get more ice time with CBJ than he gets under Boudreau (and their crowded top 9) and hopefully this will lead to him developing and growing into a legitimate top-6 winger for Columbus by then to help replace Nyquist when he leaves for UFA. This would also give Columbus a first line center with size in Miller who can win board battles and faceoffs to play with Gaudreau and Laine. That would be an amazing first line.
Losing Miller means Pettersson and Horvat will both need to move up on the center depth charts for the Canucks, so Roslovic gives them a third line center while Jiricek gives them the blue-chip RD prospect that they desperately need.
Thoughts?
You are not delusional. You are just a newbie who is excited to be here . I can and do recognize all the thought you put into this .This is a ridiculous scenario but hear me out.
-Miller 50% retained with extension and hoglander for Dobson (canucks then sign for $5x5)
-OEL 1.5 retained for Necas (assuming OEL would wave for a contender)(canucks sign necas $3.5x3)
-Pearson for a bag of pucks
Canucks currently have -$2.7m in cap space. With the exits of retained miller and OEL as well as the full contract of Pearson and hoglander, we would have $9.95. After the additions we would have $1.45 in cap space. (Numbers might be slightly off)

NYI are under pressure to improve next season and Jt miller is exactly the type of player they need. Also their defence would still be good in the absence of Dobson. Since the NYI would no longer need to resign Dobson, they could afford signing miller.
Lineup
Kuzmenko-petey-boeser
Podz-horvat-garland
Lockwood-necas-mikheyev
Dickinson?-lazar-joshua
Hughes-dobson
Dermott-myers
Rathbone-schenn
The following season the canucks could trade Dickinson assuming he improves his game and last year was just a down year. The retention on miller also goes away so the canucks would have enough cap space to resign horvat, Kuzmenko, dermott, schenn, Burroughs, etc.
Also, they could trade the last year of myers to gain $6 mil if they wanted to make a free agent move.
Am I delusional or what?

I definitely agree. They have Jiricek for the future, no way they're moving him. Eventually a top 4 RHD of Boqvist and Jiriceck. For the canucks that's a solid return. Maybe even throw in a guy like dermott going to columbus who can play both sides and fill in until Jiricek is a full time NHLer. I think Jake Bean can play both sides too, although I'm not entirely sure.If we’re dealing with Columbus, who I think is a great fit for Miller and has tons of pieces the Canucks would covet, Miller for Roslovic, Peeke, 1st is more realistic imo.
In addition to Boqvist and Jiricek Columbus also has Ceulemans whos another RD they drafted in the first round last year. Could also include Gudbranson who’s locked up for the next 4 years although he’s obviously not the future solution.I definitely agree. They have Jiricek for the future, no way they're moving him.

Columbus: Get's the better player (upgrade on Roslovic). A line of Gaudreau-Miller-Laine would be sick.
Vancouver: Solidifies top 4 RHD spot and still keeps the center position relatively deep with Petey, Bo, and Roslovic.
Oh true I forgot about him Ceulemans. They're defense is gonna be solid in the coming years.In addition to Boqvist and Jiricek Columbus also has Ceulemans whos another RD they drafted in the first round last year.

Depends on how big the bag of pucks is tbh, like are we talking grocery store bag or garbage bag size?This is a ridiculous scenario but hear me out.

Vancouver and Calgary will not be making any kind of high impact trade with one anotherJT Miller for Hanifin, Dube, and Pelletier.
I don’t think the inter-division is what stops a deal… it’s more the fact of miller (likely) wanting to re-sign in US. I mean, if he’s not resigning in Vancouver then I highly doubt he will with Calgary. Obviously $ plays a factor too…Vancouver and Calgary will not be making any kind of high impact trade with one another
If they weren’t in the same division, they would actually make great trading partners tho
Probably a great fit, but no return for Vanvouver should be focused on a LD and an undersized winger prospect, either.Vancouver and Calgary will not be making any kind of high impact trade with one another

Regardless of what Miller wants, Calgary and Vancouver as currently constructed will likely be battling all year for playoff spots. I’m not just talking about Miller here. Vancouver will not be moving anyone of consequence to a divisional competitor, likewise for the flames.I don’t think the inter-division is what stops a deal… it’s more the fact of miller (likely) wanting to re-sign in US.

Is this serious? Laughable bad for CalgaryJT Miller for Hanifin, Dube, and Pelletier.

Isn’t Dube one of the guys potentially mired up in the 2018 scandal? No way Van is touching that with a 10 ft pole until his name is clearedIf you think it's overpayment then Hanifin and Dube.
