Hischier just got hurt for NJ. If he has to miss an extended amount of time then there's Vancouver's bidding war between NJ and NYR to get a good package
 
Spending a bunch of assets for a moody player seems like something Buffalo, of all the teams, probably shouldn't be doing. But the player fits something they need obviously.
On one hand…running him and Tage as the top 2 C would be a great idea.

On the other hand…Adams and the cheap owner will have them playing with no one supported by no one and backed up by no one until they demand a trade out of town where they will be moved for many pieces of no one.

I think heading to a team with Dahlin as the leader who can relate to EP has a Swede around the same age could be helpful for him. But you could definitely be right.

I don't think Miller fetches one iota more in the offseason. This bed is made, so to speak.

*He has an NMC and can fully dictate where he goes. (As a Canes fan, I'm already wary that we're being "Greered" again, like we were on Timo Meier...that he's only willing to go to NY/NJ and we're being strung along to get the best price from the only "true bidder.")

*The situation is known and acknowledged by the Vancouver FO and coach...so everyone knows they have you over the barrel and you have to resolve the conflict before it grows. Offers made reflect that and likely continue to reflect that.

*Any advantage gained by the Canucks in the offseason (more teams (which may not be true because of the NMC), more cap space) gets more than offset by those gained by competitors. (More options on the market, some without the same age, contract, attitude questions.)

So...I think this is the best market remaining. If they could have kept the lid on the situation, Miller could have moved weeks ago for more. Now...it's as good as its going to get.
Grier’d*
 
CBJ Monahan out 6-8 more weeks…wonder what that does for CBJ? I believe Jenner is coming back soon, but do they still look at another C? They have some young players that have played some w the Jackets, curious to see what they do.

Yes please
I think VAN doesn’t even hesitate w this trade…absolutely YES
