I hope so, they gave the canes a conditional 1st.

 

Will..........

Wow... hearing New Jersey gets Subban.

If the Devils get him.............YIKES their going to be a very good team.

 

Devils, damn.

 

Nothing

 

Have to ask really, why do teams want to unload PK?

 

Canes will buy out PM and then the Sharks will sign him at ELC money. If the 1st is in the top ten, then it reverts to 2021.

I hate the leafs missing out two years in a row on first rounders.

 

The devils are good again.

 

The flyers now use that 45th pick to move up to 34.

Trade: Lightning free up cap space by sending Miller to Canucks
Tampa frees up $5.25 million with trade.

Saturday seems all right for freeing up cap space.

It’s no Elton John classic, but it seems to be a popular hit among National Hockey League general managers on the second day of the 2019 NHL Draft as the Tampa Bay Lightning followed the Nashville Predators and loosened their cap belt by trading J.T. Miller to the Vancouver Canucks for prospect goalie Marek Mazanec, a 2019 third-round pick and a conditional first rounder in 2020.

The Canucks are set to take on the full of Miller’s $5.24 million cap hit over the next four years, which is key for the Lightning.

Tampa had just $5.876 million to play with before the trading of Miller and they’ve yet to sign restricted free agent Brayden Point, who could be in the $9 million range per season.

This is not to mention some of other issues they’re going to have in the future, including a big-money extension for Vezina winner Andrei Vasilevskiy, who will be a restricted free agent after next season.

The Lightning already shed $5.8 million by moving Ryan Callahan to the long-term injured-reserve list earlier this week.

For the Canucks, the trade is good in the sense they get a solid player in Miller, but not so great that they had to give up a conditional first-round pick for him. The Canucks are rebuilding and rebuilding teams shouldn’t be trading opening round picks. See: Ottawa.

“J.T. Miller is an experienced and versatile offensive contributor,” Canucks GM Jim Benning said in a release from the club. “This deal is about acquiring a player who can have an immediate impact on our top six forward group for term. The pick we’ve given is conditional meaning if we’re involved in the 2020 draft lottery, it moves to 2021 as a 1st round selection.” (NBC PHT)

 

Vancouver shouldn't have given up a first rounder. Tampa wants to trade the guy, don't give them favorable terms.

I agree dline............BUT if the Canucks can make the playoff's he will be worth it.......early predication are he will play with Petterson and Boeser.

Have to ask really, why do teams want to unload PK?

My thoughts as well Skinny.........WHY is my question......is he a cancer in the dressing room ???....weird because he is a good player.

 

It could be the $9M was really weighing on their cap and he was the easiest to trade. It could be that he's a real polarizing figure and some coaches don't like that.
