[Canadian Canuck]

To Toronto-
Miller
Schenn

To Vancouver-
Nylander
Holl

Miller is definitely the better player but Nylander has age on his side. However, If I’m moving Miller I want to rebuild our defense. Not sure why Toronto does this either as they’re in complete win now mode and should be trading picks and prospects to improve the team, ESPECIALLY that awful defense outside of Reilly.
Easy no from the Canucks.

 

[Just a Fan]

Canucks fans will say no, and I would pass as a Leafs fan….Nylander is on a good contract and performing well.

 

[Makaveli]

Both sides say no

 

[M2Beezy]

Id do it if the Leafs add Robertson and a 2023 1st

 

[Coffees]

Would think the Canucks pass here

Not saying Nylander isn't a great player, but how does this help the Canucks?

Search your feelings, you know what the answer is.

 

[Joseph Nathan]

Leafs decline this big time

Good job OP, this is one of the more even blockbuster proposals I've seen on this site.

I'm not entirely sure that Van would want Nylander as the main piece of a Miller trade, but the value is there.

Pretty fair

Nylander would be a nice fit with Pettersson.
Miller fits better with Tavares.

The problem for the Canucks isn’t the value per se but as another poster said, if the Canucks trade Miller the big piece coming back has to be a defenceman. Preferably a right side defenceman.

Fair enough.
Canucks need a dman in a Miller trade, but I wouldn’t cry if this deal happened

 

[Cogburn]

If we lose Miller, we're not competing, so a rebuild style trade would make sense. Nylander is both less productive and more expensive, and is a mere 3 years younger, and also can't play center, where we are most thin without Miller. This is a clear upgrade for Toronto and a clear downgrade for Vancouver.

Schenn for Holl is also not to our benefit what so ever, aside from age, but even this is offset by his higher cap hit, as we are already limited, which is what is driving all these rumours of the Canucks moving a forward.

I'm glad someone posted a deal without Kerfoot being the centerpoint of the deal and has something that would admittedly hurt to deal for Miller, but this does nothing for the Canucks, and doesn't even commit to either a rebuild or a concerted hockey trade.

No shit you would. I'd also trade Holl for McDavid. The other team wouldn't.

 

[Tak7]

Both sides say no.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

I think I'll pass on this one. There's the risk called, "Changing potential".
