Rumor: Everything JT Miller | Elias Pettersson trade Thread

They’re not trading one of them because they want to.

...nope, however they are both still exceptional players and every GM in the League knows it, including the Canucks GM...he isn't giving one of them away...it might not be dollar for dollar, but it certainly won't be for wooden nickels either...

And one of them is 32 with a long contract. Horvat has already been traded due to this rift.

What kind of made up bullshit is this? Horvat was never traded due to a rift :biglaugh:

The original rift was Horvat and Miller. This was as Benning was exiting. Now there was no rift? Sure. I seem to recall Canucks not wanting Miller during this timeline too. Regarding Horvat, the cap was finite and they ended up keeping Miller.

They offered Horvat a contract, he didn’t accept. They offered Miller a contract, he accepted. In fact, I seem to remember them going back to Horvat after they re-signed Miller, but by that point Bo was on pace for 50 goals and they were to far apart on a contract so they moved him. He wasn’t moved because of a rift.

No, there wasn’t. Horvat was traded due to contract negotiations

Girard isn’t better than Hronek.

Eh they are probably close. If you put Girard with Hughes I'd be curious to see his numbers. Girard plays with Manson. I think Hronek is better offensively and Girard a little better defensively.

At his best Hronek is better. Girard may be more consistent though and without the injury issues

Miller is an elite 1C, not a high end 2C.
how many centermen have more points in the NHL than he does over the last five years? not too many...

Doesn’t matter what he did.

He’s the same age and term as Zibs and we saw what happened to him.

Buyer beware/All sales final stickers are out there

It doesn't matter what he did? How does that make any sense? Why would anyone want him if the player he is doesn't matter? Genius logic here.

I didn't mention cozens or try to devalue him. I don't understand the point of your post.

If the past matters then his value is a 30 goal scorer not a 15 goal scorer.

Sorry things are hard for you to understand.

Miller is top 10 in league scoring over 5 years. Cozens had one year that got him paid. Not apples to apples so don't pat yourself on the back like you made a good point. Even this year miller is on pace for 80 points, a great player for 8 mill, and the offers for him are still garbage.
 
new guy acquired by Canucks: hi JT it’s nice to meet you
JT Miller: That’s JT “Rift” Miller to you!
 
I haven't seen this in the thread yet:

In an Athletic article about what a VAN/NYR deal around Miller could look like, two proposals were made, and the second one was Miller + Garland for Zib + Laf

I feel like that is an interesting proposal, I wonder what both sides here think of it. I have a feeling both will hate it, but have at ye :laugh:
