Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Miller is absolutely best potentially available player for the Preds right now (I think Preds can't afford players like Pasta right now, so it is what it is).
Miller fits Preds identity like nobody else.

So if Poile want to acquire really "big fish", I think, it must be Miller.
The challenge to resign him is another story, but hopefully such type of deal will be finished with such condition. Immediately resign, or nah.
Myers - in this trade is more like "negative value". 1 million retention should make his contract more friendly. But he is still worth at least 3rd round pick + "B- prospect".

What about other side. If all rumors are true, and Canucks want to sell everything except their young stars and Demko, so why not to trade for some pretty nice assets.
Fabbro should be perfect with Hughes. He shows that he can play well with offensive-minded partner (Josi-). And there is still a lot of potential. He is that "pretty good NHL player" in that deal.
Farrance - best LD prospect in system. Former Fabbro's partner (at Boston university). He is that "B+ lvl prospect" in this trade.
Evangelista - close to 2 points per game in OHL last season. With 55 goals in 62 games. Likely he is the best goal-scorer in Preds system. He is that "A-lvl prospect" in this trade.
1st round pick at strong draft - no comments.

So, what we have:
A-lvl prospect
B+lvl prospect
Solid NHL player (young RHD, it is always pretty valuable)
1st round pick of mediocre team at the strong draft class (but with top 10 protection)

For:
Elite physical forward, that will resigned right after the trade
TOP-4 physical defensmen, with not really good contract, but just fine.

I think it is fair deal. What do you think?
