On which planet is this realistic

Lmao that TB trade, two barely NHL players for a solid TOP6 forward. It's like TB offering Erne and Raddysh in exchange to Reinhart.

Earth. Which trade do you think is unrealistic. I attacked the cap strap teams.

You are cap strapped team, HE had 40 points on one of the best teams ever created. He is making over 5 million. He is over payed and you need to trade some one to stay under cap. he was also your 4th line center in playoffs. SO obviously team does not value him so highly.

Tampa trade. Offer at very least Ristolainen back for Miller. He is not overpaid.. as Burgerboss said, its like offering Erne and Raddysh for Reinhart. Makes no sense. WPG doesnt need anymore offensive Dman but rather defensive. they have one guy who always screws in his own zone in Byfuglien, they dont need more. Also Trouba would probably want to go to a team which is good. Bufalo would never trade Mittelstadt AND 1st in one trade. The rest? Eh..

Have you ever heard of what we call a bounce back season? It happens often and he's been very consistent in the past if he regains it that contract is more than fair

He had 47 points in 75 games, that's 51 in 82 games, as a 3rd liner, with 9th most ice time out of all TB forwards, 14mins a night. He's a power play expert.

I agree that he should be dealt because TB needs money, but they could do so much better than that. He's 26yo 50-point+ versatile forward with reasonable contract. Certainly worth a 1st round pick, probably even more than that.

Miller is so over valued he had 47 points. He does not fit on that team. But if you guys love him so much switch miller for palat.

Yes but they will not be getting fair value in off season. Look at the teams that are cap strapped and have to trade good players. Alot of good players will be on trade market which will diminish his value. Also, his value dropped and a good gm will take advantage of that and not buy high because he could bounce back.

I would not trade Casey for Karlsson straight up let alone the rest of the package

If your going to sign Trouba long-term we want a 1st back. Perreault is not a cap dump he is worth a 3rd-ish. And The jets don't want/need zirgesons. So Trouba and Perreault for Risto and SJ 1st if you sign him long-term

Vegas trade is garbage. Mittelstadt will be far better than Karlsson by the next year or two

Every competitive team in the NHL is a cap strapped team, they find ways around it like everyone else. It's not to say that Miller isn't expendable for them, but his point total and their cap situation are not a direct reflection of his value, and their not going to just toss out the baby with the bath water to relieve some cap. Miller gets lost in the wash with a team with so many talented forwards. He is an obvious choice for a trade, but the scraps you're offering in return wouldn't get it done. They could get better across the NHL (except from the Rangers, we wouldn't give up a bag of pucks for him lol).

The Trouba trade is equally unattractive from Winnipeg's view. Offering up a defenseman because you're getting a defenseman doesn't automatically even out the value..not to mention the interest from the other team. The Jets would probably be more interested in investing their cap money in an impact forward rather than another defenseman, particularly if they can't retain Hayes. If their lineup is healthy, you could argue that D is where they can afford to lose as Trouba and Buff play the same position/role for them. You'd make a much stronger case offering them Mittelstadt in some form of deal for him.

I'm not in a rush to say Trouba wouldn't sign with Buffalo, their close to home and he'd pair nicely with Dahlin for their primes.

But imo your idea of "realistic" needs some adjustment =)

Trouba's own agent Kurt Overhardt said that Jacob has no desire to play in Buffalo, His 3 preferred destinations are the Rangers, Red Wings and Panthers.
