Agreed.
All avenues need to be explored.

Miller getting 99 points on a dog poop team according to some will garner lots of interest, a player like Miller finally figures it out and typically Canuck fans want to trade him.

Because we're nowhere close to even making the playoffs and Miller was a win now trade for a team that was nowhere near ready to win now. Now rightly he's going to want a TON of money and term and that's going to suck if this was his high watermark and is nowhere near the same player going forwards. Better to sell high and start filling holes in the lineup and prospect/draft pick depth.

Some Canuck fans would rather have some good players and not a winning team, the problem is this team is so poorly put together it's not funny, it's needed a re-build since 2012.

I’d rather have good players than chase a cup which we will never achieve. Entertaining players maybe some grit?

I am not just referring to Miller. I am referring to every single player on this mediocre team.

How about...

JTM, 15th OA, Myers to NJD for 2OA, Severson, prospect? Zacha?... Canucks may have to add a little.

Canucks draft Nemec (future top pairing RHD?)

OEL / Severson
Hughes / Schenn
Dermott / Nemec (slow introduction on the bottom pair)

You don't miss Benning at all. Trading just like him now.

Though I doubt Oilers win the next game, that is a joke. Hits like that should be a suspension for the rest of the round. Players tend to be willing to take out another teams top players to get a better chance at winning with minor slaps on the wrist like this.

But yet no call on the slew foot on Draisaitl. Weird.

So you want your team to get softer and pooptier??

If Benning was making the trade, it'd be the 15OA and Hoglander for Severson and Zacha

Canucks get younger (Severson > Myers), open up cap space, and get a potential top pairing D man who is physically ready for the NHL. If they work Zacha in, they get their potential 3C and can move on from Dikcy.

In the short term, sure, if it makes them better for the long term. The Canucks ain't winning poop with their current lineup.

I can see where you are coming from, the win now strategy (Benning had the same strategy) but considering what Van could get for Miller vs what they are getting in that trade. I wouldn't do it unless Miller said NJ is the only team you're trading me too.

Disagree. Makes them worse short term and terrible long term. You clearly have not watched NJ.

We can only hope, this team needs a Benningectomy.
- A_SteamingLombardi

A Vaccine for the 'Long Bennings' would help too. 4 doses should cover it.

lol we currently have a fan base that wants to trade our best player for this 'big haul' and possibly set the club back 5-10 more years. But that's ok so the whining can continue.
