Well he doesn't do it by himself of course. They want an offensive D man and a draft pick/prospect also as has been reported.

from Spector's hockey today

TORONTO SUN’s Steve Simmons reported via Twitter: “Strange: The Avalanche haven’t told GMs what the price is for Ryan O’Reilly. They’re saying: Make an offer. Most GMs are puzzled by this.”

A COACHING CHANGE IS THE FIRST MOVE FOLLOWED BY MAJOR PLAYER MOVEMENTS.... AND I DON'T MEAN BOWEL MOVEMENTS!!!!!!

there is no need to freak out.. we must stay the course and ride through this rough patch

that is the way i would do it if i were a GM.. see what people throw at you someone might give more than is necessary because they don't know what you want. if you don't get what you feel is enough then you define what you want.

Pretty good? Highest GA in the league - 45th in GAA - 28th in S%. Stellar numbers.

Stats only tell part of the story. Hes been good so far this season. Our overall team defense has to be the worst in the league, which hes suffering from. I'm not saying hes been the best goalie in teh league, but to put up decent numbers with this team infront of you is impressive.

Not quite, My friends grandma was a huge Braves Friend when I was young. Though it was a plus. Loved Chipper. I wore number 10 all my years playing 3rd base.

Upton, Upton, Heyward outfield. That is going to amazing to watch. Pitching is solid (starting and relief) Kimbrle, Huddy, Minor, Venters, Beachey(hopefully returning to form)

Though losing Prado did suck. 3rd base is the only real weakness on the team.*

*Hopefully McCann can return to his all star form after the injury

I loved TBS only because I could watch the Giants. Braves are always decent, should be good this year too, depending on the Uptons.

If you really would give up Pominville+ for O'Reilly than this kid has become more over rated than I could have ever imagined. He's done nothing in his career to demand the best player on our team for the most part.
- sbroads24

Yeah, the team is so good with him as part of it. Why make a move for a kid who is 9 years younger and can fill a gaping need for our team?

THey want someone to come in with a bigger deal then theyd want.

There are rumors that Cbus is looking to move Brassard. Former 6th overall pick. Maybe be a better option than getting into the bidding war for ROR?

POmemr Suckerra mid round pick for ROR

yep since I was 7........looked at the standings in '89 and picked the tribe because they had the worst record in the league.


- rustbelt82

This is really strange.
I chose the indians for the same exact reason when I was 8.
My friends growing up all had their favorite teams , Yankees/Red Sox/Royals etc.
Back in that day the Royals were good.
So I did not want them to think I was picking a team just because they were good , not to mention that I have always loved the underdog so I looked down at the bottom of the standings and there were the Indians.
Favorite team ever since.
I have autographs from Rick Manning/Blyleven/Hargrove/Harrah/Thornton etc...
Just thought your story was eerily familiar to mine.

He also has faced the most shots in the league and is tied for GP amongst goalies.

in stats where goalies have played at least 5 games he his middle of pack in GAA and SV%

Just for example he is 15th in SV% with goalies with at least 5 games played and 5 of those ahead of him have played in under 10 games. Miller has 15.

Millers numbers this year are about .3 higher in GAA and SV% is dead on to his carrer stats.
- rgdeuce

His career stats are average, and he is an average goalie.

maybe they just need a fresh start...

Because he is the savior right? ROR will fix the defensive problems and the horrible PP, and ALL of the forards inability to back check. Let's trade our most consistent player+ for a guy that "might" be a captain and might be a 60pt guy

Yeah and my fiance wants a honneymoon in Borra Borra......thats not going to happen either
