Game 22 Flyers vs. Rangers

I disagree on Miller. Vancouver isn't going to simply give away their 2nd best player and leading scorer. And the main point is one of Kreider or Mika would have to be included in the larger package for Miller due to cap reasons, he makes $8M per for the next 5 seasons after this one.

With that said, I think it is pointless to discuss Mika though, as I don't see him going anywhere with a NMC. Too bad, but another Drury special.

Drury as we have said looks to be in way over his head. You can almost guarantee he will get walked all over with any trade he tries to make. The man has failed incredibly to better this group. Deadline pickups that you end up losing and then some when you don’t win the cup are useless.

Well stated. I think he is really awful at his job. Outside of signing Trocheck I am not sure what he has done.

A conveyor belt of trade DL acquisitions leave for nothing, last season he got an F- at the trade DL when they actually had a shot, then he let players walk for nothing and only added terrible Smith and Carrick, making the team clearly worse, and with a stale core that to anyone paying attention and being real and honest about things, needed to be broken up badly or the current bad team would be the result.

It's just terrible, and to me it was clear from the second he got the job he was not ready to be Pres/GM of an organization, and I wrote that very day it was a terrible move by Sather/Dolan. Unfortunately, that is spot on.

Yup, last year’s trade deadline is unforgivable. Had the best chance and relied on their regular season success.
