Pedey needs to come back in the lineup sooner than later. He showed well in that first game.

I hope most fans realize that just making the playoffs is the best THIS group can do.
The can't or haven't won four out of seven games yet even against the bottom feeders.
And next year it gets worse even if they try to keep all the core players because the OEL cap hit goes up
A sad plane crash, US skating team members and coaches lost.

Wait so trying to shift the discussion away from the bozos - what's everyone's call on the UFAs?
AFP analytics has Boeser at Boeser at 7x8.7 and Suter at 4x3.8
Assuming your "best case" for this team happens, would that mean you sign them or are you trading them in the next month prior to the tdl?

I doubt either gets those amounts. That being said, with the current state of the team and battling for a playoff spot, I also doubt they're traded. Moving them basically tells the team, "pack it in. No playoffs." Unless we completely fall off, there's just no way they want to do that.
As for signing them, Boeser really has no argument about 8M with his play this season. I love Suter, but wouldn't go above 3M for him. Even that's a bit rich.
Dhaliwal bringing up the avs as another team looking at miller. (This is pretty obvious tho)

No idea what would be a good return from the Avs, people keep metioning Mittelstadt and I don't like him at all.

I guarantee that's all they're offering. Can't say I like him either. If he's struggling to make it work on the Avs, he's not gonna do anything for us.

they're the most obvious good fit (from the acquiring team's perspective) for miller.
but yeah, think i'd rather have concussion prone chytil man
Dhaliwal's comments in the first 10 minutes:
Vancouver Canucks
Vancouver Canucks
- Teams are still calling on Miller and Pettersson
- Canucks had two scouts at the Rangers game and had a scout at the Devils vs Flyers game
- Thinks the Avalanche could be a possibility for Miller; they need a centreman; Mittelstadt hasn’t been great
- A couple of years ago, the Canucks and Avalanche talked trade about Miller; Alex Newhook and Bowen Byram were the pieces going to Vancouver; doesn’t know why the deal never materialized but were “Along”; wonders if Miller would be willing to waive to go there despite preferring East Coast teams
- Looking for a top-4 defenceman but prices are very high
- Teams want a 1st round pick and Willander; Canucks won’t do that trade

Boeser with double max retention has a cap hit of $1,662,500. Jordan Spence has a $1,500,000 cap hit.

Chris MacFarland saw Joe Sakic turn Barrie and Kerfoot into Kadri and wants to do something similar.
Mittelstadt sucks.

They could always flip Necas. Gives them cost certainty at a premium position (and a guy who can actually win faceoffs).
Canucks reportedly liked Ross Colton before he was traded to Colorado. He's basically a 40-point middle-6 utility forward signed for 2 more years at 4m. Has a full-NTC this season, though. Maybe you could get someone like Lehkonen but, once again, has some trade protection and injury concerns.
I can't see the Avalanche flipping Necas.
I'm not a fan of Mittelstadt and Girard. I do like what I've seen of Parssinen and think he'd be an interesting addition even though his value is very low. Colorado doesn't have as lot of draft picks (no 1st this season but two 2nds, no 2nds next season but one 1st). Their prospect pool is barren apart from Ritchie and Gulyayev.

Can't see Blake trading away Clarke, seems too god damn stupid of a thing to do.
I wonder if getting a 1st rounder back is basically the line this management is drawing at. We can take less when it comes to the roster player or prospect but we have to get a 1st rounder because they will flip it instantly.

Bryan Rust: I wonder if Rust would prioritize VAN (JR/Allvin) if they show interest? 33 at the end of this year and has 3 years left on his $5.125m AAV deal. He is exactly the type of short-term replacement VAN needs if Boeser walks. Smart player.
Marcus Pettersson is another good fit. A good chance to re-sign him. He could help save Soucy from himself.
Cody Ceci: Dumping Desharnhais to get Ceci might not be a bad idea. He's UFA at the end of this year, so they don't have to re-sign him, and they get out from under the 2 year commitment for VD. SJ gets a place holder they can use next year along with a future asset.
@Peen:
Brock Boeser: I would re-sign Boeser at $8m AAV for 6 years max. He will have to give up the final 2 years to get that AAV. Last report I recall was that they offered $8m~ at 3-4 years and he wants 7-8 years. Could have been Cam Robinson.
Pius Suter: Gets the Joshua contract of $3.25m AAV, max. They love this guy. If it came to it, they would dump Hoglander to keep him.
On COL's interest in Miller: I don't like Mittlestadt's defense and lack of strength either, but he may be the best of the options available. Unless, CAR is willing to send Kotkaniemi over? Not of fan of Chytil's durability or his relative skill level. At least Mitts has a higher ceiling.

My guess would be Canucks would want Ritchie (we've got horrible C depth prospects wise) and Colorado would want to dump Mittelstadt. Would guess throw in a 2nd round pick and that might be a potential framework. Could also end up being a three way trade where Canucks move Mittelstadt elsewhere but unless Colton is willing to waive his NTC it would be a tough deal to make without Mittelstadt.
I was thinking along those lines as well. Miller for Colton/Mittelstadt, Ritchie, & 2nd/Parssinen/whatever. Can use Colton or Mittelstadt as the 2nd line centre on a temporary basis then choose to keep or flip them in the off-season.

We have many legitimate gripes about how management has handled the PR side of things, but a half-decade ago it'd be likely that we lose Willander, our 1st, and 7th for some of the hobbled D-men out there on the market right now. I'm happy they're standing pat and just waiting.
Prices will probably stay high through the deadline but I imagine as we approach the offseason, with the cap going up, things will loosen up.

I would imagine a win for us would be getting Ritchie out of this deal with the Avs (not sure Avs would move him but that's the piece we should be targeting)

Mittelstadt started the season red hot (I think it was 13 points in his first 10 games) and then just fell off. I can't imagine he'd be a long term fit but there's always teams interested in adding a potential top 6 C (we also might be one of those teams soon lol)
Would the Av's be willing to ask Colton to waive his NTC? Cap wise it would also be tight (doable but leaves the Avs with little LTIR room.
