Sujet: Betting on the core one more year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gordfish</b></div><div>It's a gamble, sure, but for the right price and term, there is potential to get above value on a deal like this. I think of it kind of like the Taylor Hall situation. With the right fit, he can be a useful player. And with their cap situation, they are likely better off taking a risk on Domi than they are on Boeser. I would put him on Horvat's wing, though.



At this point, I don't think I'd be putting any money on that.</div></div>

I would. At least one of Miller, Boeser, Garland or Horvat will be gone before the season starts. Miller and Horvat need extensions and Rutherford is not going to let this drag on through the season. If both sign extensions than others go. The forward group IMO will see two changes and maybe Myers goes as well. The status quo is NOT happening and I think Rutherford/Alvin have made that very clear.

Sujet: Miller to Philly
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Well it better by more than conversation, as the Flyers wouldn't make that deal without an extension. I'm doubting the Flyers even make the trade anyway.
But I wanna be in the talk when Canucks management tells Miller....."We don't want you any more so hurry up and sign an extension with Philly."</div></div>

Hard to say what the Flyers do, but they clearly have an aversion to a rebuild. Maybe that changes, maybe it doesn't.
That is a pretty naïve take on the situation though. These are all professionals here and everyone knows the score. Canucks management and Millers rep will obviously talk an extension, but if Miller is looking for significant $$ and term it is highly unlikely that will happen in Vancouver and this won't be a surprise to them, therefore a trade is inevitable. It certainly behooves the Miller camp to be open to negotiating with a prospective team if he gets to play where he wants and gets the deal he wants. This also ups the potential return for Vancouver. Win/win. Will it happen? Again who knows, but it is certainly more likely than unlikely.
