Agreed.

I dont think they would part with Backes
- theblueandgold

Well they need something to take the next step and Backes would return something good.

If they trade Miller this summer I would sign Mike Smith.

Smith will likely be asking for what Miller is getting paid right now. Think you're willing to pay for that?

Agreed.

For what Backes brings to the team, they cant get rid of him. They would lose their depth and key part up the middle. They would likely trade away a winger for a player like Vanek. Oshie, Stewart, Steen, Perron... maybe their young guys... Schwartz, Tarasenko.
