Doubt Fantilli goes, though. He still isn't even skating after that deep skate cut to his lower leg back in January. He may want to, but Columbus probably doesn't clear him.</div></div>

Haha, it was those comments that prompted me to to do this exercise. Last I saw was that there was still some hope that Fantilli might be able to play the last few games of the season for Columbus, included him more so as an investment by Hockey Canada in his future (doesn’t hurt that Nash is GM)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>qc14</b></div><div>You cannot make picks conditional on a player re-signing anymore, and I think there are better fits elsewhere for both players</div></div>

This is fair feedback, could simply add a 2nd and have the condition that it would upgrade to a 1st if COL makes the WCF or SCF (something like that). I actually think that Girard is a great fit for Van:
-young
-cost-controlled through his prime
-allows them to have a breakout machine on each of their top 2 pairs (VAN struggles breaking out of their zone)

I think Miller is a fit for a lot of teams but especially COL as they need a top center and are committed to ring-chasing in the short term. Also have the cap space to facilitate a trade now, saves VAN from risk that Miller regresses/gets hurt and loses value

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boldirev</b></div><div>Girard is a small left handed D, we already have one of those. The fact that he can play the right side is interesting but that in itself doesn't make him the ideal candidate for our blueline. Canucks are not gonna trade Miller for some ones 3rd pair RD, pretty much straight up no matter how much YOU like him. Girard might be superfluous in Colorado, but Miller isn't in Vancouver.</div></div>

For Vancouver, they need to evaluating deals for Miller in terms of total future value. Yes, Miller will provide more value this year than Girard. But they can't afford to pay Miller's next contract and so the cumulative value of picking up a 3/4 D entering his prime years for 5 seasons outweighs having one season of Miller. conditional picks protect against Colorado re-signing Miller
