Value of: Collin Miller to Vancouver

[Seatoo]

He’s clearly fallen out of favour in Vegas, what would it take to get him to Vancouver? Since the draft is in Vancouver I can see them trying to send over someone like Goldobin and a prospect like Tyler Madden or a 2020 pick.

Miller and 17OA for 10OA and 2019 3rd rounder.

No chance they drop 7 spots for a dman who was healthy scratched a bunch during the regular season and playoffs, let alone add a 3rd. Especially when the team he’s on is over the cap by a good margin.

OK. There will be others who want the player and contract.

I doubt Miller gets a 1st from anybody since Vegas is over the cap

I don't think he gets a 1st either. But he is worth the 7 spot trade up in this weak draft.

He was benched 2 games during the regular season + one in the playoffs. Hardly a bunch. And he went on to have a pretty great series after he got scratched.

Vancoucer has nothing to give contending teams. Only realistic tradeable asset is #10OA and i doubt that is moved down for Colin Miller.

Maybe we take an additonal contract with Miller to make it an easier trade but other than that i don't see a fit.

The draft is not weak no he’s not worth that at all, especially when you’re trading into the top ten

 

[CupInSIX]

I don't see a deal to be made here, unless the Canucks retain on Stetcher and flip him to Vegas out of the kindness of their hearts.

And I'd rather not give Pettersson a good point shot next to Hughes on their power play, being a divisional rival and all.

This draft has been talked about as a deep draft without the high end of some drafts. It's also pretty well documented that there is a talent tier that ends at 10-12, so that 7 spot drop could be the difference between a top 6 wing and a top 9 wing or a top 3 D and a bottom pairing D. Hardly worth it for Miller

10-17 dont have a lot of difference between them so I would rather target a 2nd and 3rd or something.

This deal essentially gets Vegas an additional 3rd and first dibs at a bunch of equally rated prospects.

the draft is super weak. 2020 looks strong. Just because it is hosted by vancouver doesnt mean it has good players

 

[Bettman Returnz]

Just throwing it out there but we are one of only a few teams that can/will also take clarkson off your books too. So that counts for something. Unless you prefer to trade patches or Stastny?

so wait... a top 4 D + a top 9 wing wouldnt be worth a top 6 wing?

Debateable whether or not Miller is a top 4 D

 

[Brazen331]

Ok. If you want the Clarkson contract, you can take that along with a draft pick and forget about the trade up.

But Vegas would probably prefer to do a deal like this with a team out East.

Hynes benched Severson here in NJ and it was probably the right amount of motivation

Yeah that’s why I think it’s strong.. What kind of comment is that? Anyway, this draft is not weak actually it has lots of depth,
