CanesBorg: "Sure, we will help you by taking Miller off your hands. But we might want you to through in a sweetener. How attached to Hughes are you?"

I can see them asking for Hoglander, though.

It means what I suspected: Tulsky sees an anchor of a contract down the line. Is it better to wait until the off-season when a lot of cap is available and get a player who isn't signed to a large cap hit through age 37?

Probably.

We still don't necessarily know what kind of relationships the current front office setup has with all the insiders. While all info out there has an agenda attached to it, that becomes even more the case if they only get info in our interest from the other parties involved.

I was thinking the same. and his hit is only 1.1 million this year!

then i realized next year starts a 3 x 3 contract, which as recently as last season i would have thought was decent, but he is sitting at 9 points through 43 games this year. i don't know what's happened this year, but oof. maybe he is one of our beloved reclamation projects, but i think it would have to be in the offseason or at least separate from miller.

Went to the main boards for the first time in forever to see what the chatter was on JTM, any new tweets, etc and…sheesh. What a cesspool - think I’ll just stay here.

Lebrun seems to be the most connected with someone in that organization

I never understood the interest or obsession with Hoglander... he's always kinda seemed like a skilled complimentary player who brings little else if he's not scoring
