Chytil has a history with Concussions. We should flip the 1st for Byram’s concussions. Open up a ward at VGH for Canucks with Concussions.

Re: JT Miller Traded to NYR
You know the return looks shitty but I predict posters here will, over the next day or so, begin to rationalize and believe it was not all that bad. "Miller's getting old when he had another season or two in him". "We got back pretty much the same draft pick that we use to get him." "Toxic, that's all he's worth anyways." Etc etc.

Is Huggy up to it? Seems to be a quiet type.
We bought him new "you're the man" PJ'S, made his bed, oiled up his Scooter, gave him 92 million and chased away a hard nosed, skilled, demanding player for a bag of dogshit.
Cuz says he's gonna win Art Ross trophies and lead us to Cups now.
Little fucker had to steer clear of Socialz before.
Just wait and see what happens if he doesn't step his gMe up after this abortion...

Was anyone held accountable?5thhorseman wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2025 4:59 pm Who is going to take Miller's role to keep players accountable?
The GM held an interview to talk about living up to a new standard and earning what was contractually agreed upon. The exact same message but phrased in a kinder, gentler way perhaps.
Let's see if this happens...

Re: JT Miller Traded to NYR
I think most posters realize that trading a player in season with a NMC will never get you the best return, especially if he wouldn't waive for more than a team or two.5thhorseman wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2025 5:04 pm You know the return looks shitty but I predict posters here will, over the next day or so, begin to rationalize and believe it was not all that bad.

Al la Kesler.
Surprised they actually got that first really.

Re: JT Miller Traded to NYR
Right now the Rangers pick is 11th OA if the season ends today leaving it protected. Which is fine, save it for the Mckenna draft in 2026.

Van now has an assload of cap space and a premium draft pick to wheel.

Re: JT Miller Traded to NYR
...or you could look at it that our current illustrious Management team signed both players to long term deals, ignoring what you imply to be true (6 years here and all of a sudden Miller is a toxic prick) and that, over anything else, should be our real concern.JelloPuddingPop wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2025 5:01 pm Maybe they traded a toxic prick to help a fractured dressing room.

Re: JT Miller Traded to NYR
It sounds like Miller was holding players accountable, especially Pete, but maybe he just did it in too toxic a manner. There's a big void now and Huggy needs to fill it. There's as much pressure on him as on Pete.Carl Yagro wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2025 5:06 pmWas anyone held accountable?5thhorseman wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2025 4:59 pm Who is going to take Miller's role to keep players accountable?

i'm certain the management has talked to hughes first before making the move?

Your pick is max mid round is my guess.
