the islanders dont have any assests, that they are willing to give up and are worth while for a trade for miller.

seeing as to how its now 4 divisions and that NYI's have a good young core they wont be a top 10 1st round pick anytime soon.

the assests buffalo wants for miller NYI's wouldnt want to trade away.

so would you want to trade miller for a 1st round pick that would probably be in the 20's?

I think it would have to be a 1st and some middle of the road prospect winger..

that they want to give. do you want to part with strome or reinhart? no. ok then i doubt buffalo would move miller for somebody that is not gonna be on their team in a year or 2

We could ask for conditional draft picks if they don't re-sign

they have much more than just strome and reinhart. and while they dont WANT to give anyone up, they have to, and they will if it makes sense. and i dont think it will cost as much as people think. miller already said he wont come back after next year.

Zero chance Alfie leaves Ottawa...especially for Boston. Only chance he leaves Ottawa is if the Sens don't offer him a contract which I can't see...

How does Philly have any cap space left?

we have lots. we move pieces to add pieces. jump in the jealous line. since we can have pronger we get 5 mil in ltir

IMO we are in a rebuild. no point putting the square in the circle peg just to do it. their are better trading partners out there.

Vancouver isn't gonna fall for that sh*t offer...It's either B.Schenn or Coots and Coburn for Edler...

He'd look better in Toronto and could change his first name to Harold...

I know they got lindback via trade as well. Understood they got him to be their #1, he was too inconsistent. They got bishop at the deadline then signed him to be their new #1. Just no point of tampa being interested in miller who is 6-7 years older than both lindback and bishop. Plus I don't think they have enough assets unless one of the goalies goes to buffalo with some picks and a prospect.
- The Iceman



Bolts have a top 5 system so assets is not an issue. What is an issue is the Bolts already have 2 tenders signed. Miller to the Bolts is a non-issue but it has nothing to do with whether the Bolts have enough prospects

Ference would be a great fit in Edm.

I think Stevie Y gives Bishop a good shot at being #1 this year

Definitely. Lindback is extremely talented but needs more time (which Yzerman realized very quickly). Bishop may or may not have the same upside but is more than capable of handling a 60-40 or a 70-30 split.

You don't have lots, you're over and you don't have a starting goalie.
