We're in trouble if this is what we're relying on to buoy this team.



Zero evidence of this.

I personally do not believe the Canucks are handcuffed at all. They have not asked him to waive his NMC, nor have they asked him which teams he would go to. There are reports that he has said he doesn't want to go to another Canadian market, but that leaves another 24 teams to negotiate with. Obviously he won't go to just any of them, but there is nothing that indicates he would only go to 1 or 2 teams.

My bad and I shouldn’t have been so specific by stating only 1 or 2 teams. I should have chosen my words better a used something like “a handful of teams “

We will have to agree to disagree on being handcuffed. I think we are and I think any team that has to trade a player with a NMC is handcuffed or at a disadvantage. Miller holds all the cards and he gets to choose where & when he’s traded.
