Sujet: Canucks 2023-24 - Boeser Miller Horvat extended
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>qwertymann</b></div><div>Cmon man, Im as big a fan as there is but this roster as currently constructed is NOT a great team. This roster is a playoff bubble team, defence doesn't transition the puck well enough or faster enough and the forward group is too slow. You have (maybe) 1 good skater per line (Bo, Garland kind of, MIller kind of and Highmore). This team is "all in" and are a playoff bubble team. Committing 8m to a 30 year old for 6 years isn't the play this team can make with OEL, Dickinson, Myers and Poolman on the books.</div></div>

Look closer at the roster. Poolman and Dickinson are bought out, and Myers is in the last year of his contract.

If the year taught us anything, the biggest problem was that Green wasn't the right coach for this group, and that the roster construction isn't as big a problem as we thought.

I would keep Miller, reason being is that you have youth in Petterson, Hughes and Demko. If you move him, you really are taking that proverbial step back, when you should be building around that young core instead of wasting more of their time here. If you need to delete, it makes more sense to move on from Boeser. I really don't care how old Miller is. Guys can still play in their 30's, the idea that they can't is just recency bias borne of the Ericsson contract.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Good post. But of course dealing with two UFAs. Does Miller really want to stay in Vancouver? Could Horvat get more elsewhere and would he like a change also.</div></div>

They could afford to add a half mil to each to entice them to stay. And the 8 year commitment to Bo should help there.

Anyways, with all that said, this was just a way to show people that it can be done and still leave them the flexibility to improve. Myself, I'd be a lot more aggressive.
