How it all plays out will be interesting anyway. I smell a deal cooking away in the background and I don't think it'll be small.

Rags are poised to shake it up. Pettersson for Fox!

I’d do it in a heartbeat if not for the rumours that Fox didn’t want to play in Canada when he refused to sign in Calgary.

They don't call them mind expanding drugs because they slow down creative thinking.

If the Canucks trade EP they need a 2nd line centre coming back that is close to a PPG player or they just created a new problem. A 2x2 deal would be better where the Canucks getter a lesser C but a bonafide 2nd pairing D. Canucks send EP ++ to make the deal work.

I still say on July 2nd 2025 EP and Miller will both still be on the team.

If they are trading him Columbus makes the most sense. Tons of cap space and lots of good young talent.

Miller and Pettersson are our only legitimate top 2 centres in the entire organization top to bottom and you still have Kentucky inbreds out there in Ted Kazynski shacks saying we should trade one of them for a top 4 D-Man, and this is with Willander and D-Pete on the way.

It never seizes to amaze me.

Exactly, if we are trading one of the centre’s one has to be coming back, which begs the question - why bother?

If with Columbus you’re asking for centre - Fantilli
If with Buffalo you’re asking for centre - Cozens

Tell me, is it a good idea to be trading one of your top 2 centres for a top 4 D-man? With no legitimate other top two line centre in the entire organization?

Stiff opposition
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

We had Miller and Pettersson so yes...slow turning Bo became expendable to upgrade the defense

You two or morons, but that’s been long established.
