Confirmed Trade: [NYR/VAN] JT Miller, Erik Brannstrom, Jackson Dorrington for Filip Chytil, Victor Mancini, 2025 1st round pick (top 13 protected)

[SillyRabbit]

The Avs weren't able to match this? Really? That's an awful return for a top 20 player in the NHL.

Expecting to hear a lot more of this over the next few months.

Teams kicking themselves for not being in on the Miller deal.

He was had for so cheap.

 

[Canucks LB]

Who would’ve thought Kuzmenko would net a much better return than JT Miller

That’s not even close to being true.

 

[Cogburn]

Just brutal.

 

[Connor McConnor]

The current iteration of the team is in a wildcard spot. And if 25 isn’t young, then 32 is practically ancient.

Okay so it’s a full blown rebuild, goodbye Hughes. Aquaman has never gone for a full rebuild, they will use this cap space to acquire a win now player and likely also trade that first

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

He would only waive to New York because of his high maintenance spouce.

The rumours and speculation I heard I won’t say on the boards, but there’s a good reason he asked for a leave of absence earlier in the year.

Wow, Vancouver Island and shopping on Robson isn't good enough for his wife?

I guess she wants Time Square.

Teams will not overlook that much, his contract is a hell of a bull to ride.

 

[gabevh3]

I guess the hope is getting a 2026 1st.

Isn't 25 a deeper draft?

I rather have Mancini, Chytil, and a 1st instead of Frost and Farabee. Good trade for Flames too though.

 

[Cogburn]

@Cogburn what happened to miller for matthews?

View attachment 970523

I never said I expected Matthews for Miller, just that the rest of your team is awful.

You're right that Miller got a garbage return though.

 

[Zarzh]

25 is really shallow and you'd hope the Rangers crater.

Avs really missed out big time. Miller on the Avs would immediately make them the favorite coming out of the West.

Miller would have taken a lot of pressure off MacKinnon.

[Peltz]

25 yr old who has never hit 45 points is excellent? They got Trocheck because he couldn’t be the 2C, he’s a very good 3C.. who got traded for a 100 point 1C

Watch him play. He was supposed to be our 2C last year until he got hurt. He’s a great player.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

What will be Vancouver's new lines?

After this trade they are a much worse team. Pettersson is going to shoulder their entire load now?

 

[Kocur Dill]

If Fil stays healthy, Van's gonna love him.

Thats a tough move.

Kids been a good soldier since day one and has done nothing but improve year-over-year. Only concern is durability.

All the best Kid. Gonna miss ya.
Keep them highlight reels comming.

I actually thought that the Avs were gearing up to go after Miller when they traded Rantanen.

Necas + Miller makes up for losing Rantanen but gives you more depth.

8 million for a #1C, or the best #2C in the NHL after Draisaitl is a steal.

Especially with the new salary cap numbers released this morning. 8 million is going to look like 6 million.

DeBrusk-EP-Boeser
Joshua-Chytyl-Garland
Heinen-Suter-Sherwood
Hoglander-Blueger-Karlsson

Something like that I would imagine.

 

[Romang67]

What the hell kinda idea is Top 13 protection?

 

[noncents]

What do the Blackhawks get?

Nils Juntorp.

 

[centipede2233]

EP doesn’t turn it around, he will be Buffalo bound at the draft for cozens and byram

 

[Raistlin]

he's only like that when the team is doing well.... if the vets suck and team starts losing, the guy will blow up the entire room. Bozo is a real special player in that regard.

 

[gach]

How soon will it take Miller to slap Zib up side the head for not trying hard enough

 

[shaner8989]

DeBrusk-EP-Boeser
Joshua-Chytyl-Garland
Heinen-Suter-Sherwood
Hoglander-Blueger-Karlsson

Something like that I would imagine.

That’s the worst second line in the league

 

[sxvnert]

Wow. Definite edge goes to NYR on this one. Hopefully the Canucks flip the 1st in a Hronek type deal.
