The finally shut down the Lane Hudson burgeoning star thread right before anyone could comment on his -5 game.

He looked pretty good against the Rangers last night. Made a nice rush up the ice to create the chance leading to the tying goal for MTL.

Can you imagine a fudge factor of 500 million?

Carolina bids the minimum price and sets the floor but I don’t see them offdering anything substantial for Miller. It’s not their style, Canucks are struggling to push the Rangers.

Apparently the protection parameters around the 1st round pick was the hurdle on the Rangers deal that killed it.

The Carolina and NJ stuff still seems like smoke to get Drury to move off whatever is holding up the trade. Based on the reporting the timeline looks a lot like this.

-Canucks lose to the Kings on Thursday, Miller has bad game and Canucks brass believe they have to get the deal done soon.
-It was about 1pm on Friday the Devils rumors popped up from Canucks friendly people.
-According to Friedman on 32thoughts, things progressed with the Rangers a Friday evening where the sides think a deal is close
-Saturday morning Miller is told he might be held out of the game, while the Rangers scratch the prospects.
-By that night the deal is off and Miller plays. So do Chytl and Lindgren
-Now hearing Carolina’s name

It sure seems Carolina is now the stalking horse to push the Rangers deal through now that most see the NJ stuff is BS.
