Around the NHL 2024/25

Get Miller for that price? Sure. But then dump Horvat? No.

But now, when hindsight kicks in, why was he available at that price? Why had NYR been so willing to trade him? And now he has to be moved from Vancouver because of team conflict. Maybe Pettersson is the problem, I can't know for certain, not being in that room. One of them needs to go and soon. I would keep Pettersson.

Why was he available at that price, is the same reason Kov was available for free than a 4th. Players often underrated

“He is struggling. He is caught in between. It seems like every time he is on the ice, something bad happens,” Canucks head coach Rick Tocchet...( re: Miller )

You know things aren't good when your coach has this to say about your play.

Miller was a highly rated prospect, drafted 15th OA. He had played 341 gms with NYR. In his last season there he played 63 gms and scored 40 pts. He scored 20+ G 3 consecutive seasons. He had demonstrated his ability. TBL kept him for 1 season in which he scored 47 pts, and then they moved him.

Not a Kovy comparison. There can be many factors affecting a team's decision to trade a player, cap issues for example. But TBL went on to win the SC the next 2 seasons after trading Miller. None of the pieces they got for him played for them those 2 years. So they were down a top 9 F but got better. Maybe not connected at all. Make of that what you will. Like I said earlier, just my suspicion. But I don't like the look of the record.

Apparently Malkin's SC rings were found inside his home, so not stolen. Interesting

I'm a hoarder and I have no idea where my SC rings are hidden.

I'm sure you have them insured

Wow. Canucks lose again. 5-1 to LA.

Reading the Canucks forum and it seems like Miller has completely checked out. I’m thinking he gets moved instead of Peterssen. Crazy times in Vancouver.

Prices getting cheaper in Vancouver for when the jets play in a few weeks.

So why did Malkin say they were stolen and now not stolen?

It can't be insurance fraud. He's earned $100 million playing hockey.

He drunk-called the police one night and said "my drinks are Stoli" and they thought he said my rings are stolen?

Squirrelled the rings away somewhere and forgot?

Hope the story gets juicy though.

Hoping for Oilers vs. Avs round one.
