Rangers would be insane to trade Perrault and Schneider for Miller.

And Canucks would be insane to trade Miller for anything but a big overpayment. These teams really don’t make good trading partners when it comes to Miller

Don’t see how it works unless it’s Kreider or Ziba and a pick for NYR.
And not sure why the Canucks would do that. Not really sure why they’d trade Miller in the first place unless there was a serious rift between him and the organization. And in those situations the fan base of the team isn’t gonna like the return but it generally works out alright.
Rangers aren’t just going to mortgage their future and add cap space to in turn just try and make a move of one of their contracts in a similar situation.

You need to lower your expectations. There’s no way Miller gets a package like that.
Rabid Ranger
2 is better than one
Zib straight up. Come on Nucks fans, you know you want to!

Haven't we been through this already, before Miller re-signed in Vancouver? Just go back and read our responses. They haven't changed.
But I know people are lazy, so I'll sum it up. You're nuts if you think you're getting anything close to that for Miller.

Can you even name a player that has brought back a package of that value? Serious question.
JT Miller isn’t breaking the trade market.

So the Rangers gave him way and then trade more to get him back. Only Drury would do something so dumb. Gross. Schneider is not available. Best RHD after Fox. I was pissed when the Rangers gave him away but to get him back and trade way more to bring him back would admit the Rangers organization does not know how to build a consistent winning team
I dont know any player coming off 99,82,103 point season in their prime and signed at a discount long term contract to be traded. So i dont think there would be a comparison. Thats also why i dont think JT will get moved.
M Tkachuk maybe? Coming off 100 point season and younger than JT. Makes more too tho.
Weegar - Top Pairing Dman
Huberdaeau- Elite Foward at the time/ 115 point season../Also had a 92 point season
1st round pick
Cole Schwindt ( 3rd rounder)
I think that package (without hindsight) is better than 1st, Perrault, Schneider, Chytil

Yeah, I see no reason for the Rangers to do that type of trade and I’m not even a Rangers fan.
I'll pull it up if needed, but I read something about Kreider having back issues. Could be why he is in trade talks. Schneider is probably the piece we need coming back. Zib could be used to make cap work over Kreider. What would it need to look like after that?

Package is insane for a near 32 year old. I understand the Rangers are set to win now. But that makes no sense for them to trade the pieces.

And I’m pretty sure the Rangers don’t entertain trading Laf.
It’s a bad premise when both teams are trying to win.
The fact that he is signed for 5 more years at 8 million is a huge positive in my opinion. He hasnt shown any signs of slowing down primarily because he doesnt have alot of miles on his body as he was under-utilized until coming to Van.
If he was a free agent rental he would easily get 1st and Perrault Chytil. Lesser forward rentals have obtained 1st and top prospects.

Zibanejad + Kakko for Miller and a 1st? Or Miller + 2nd? dno
Why are Canucks adding top asset while also giving up a 100 point Centre?

Canucks wouldn't want Zib for the same reason NYR would want to trade him.
Miller isn't being traded to NYR but if he was, they'd have to find a 3rd team to take Zib.

3rd or 4th then? For Kakko who still is a 23yo #2 pick who might actually be a good player if he got shipped out.

It’s a start the car and never look back kind of package. It really doesn’t make sense to sell off that much for an aging Miller. That would get you a nice cost controlled #2C with huge #1 upside(a trade unicorn of sorts)
