Lack is gone this summer in some sort of package deal, which is completely ok with me if it brings an <25 forward.

If that is the actual plan then i'm okay with it. If its not the plan than horrid move.

Makes sense considering (if I'm not mistaken?) Benning spoke of a 3-4 year plan. Lack is a touch too old at 26.

That has to be the plan.

Count me in, I've always loved turnip soup, beets-on-a-stick, and all those sexy Vladivostok hotties - oh, and just a stone's throw away from Kazakhstan's red-light goat district

True, but is it too much to ask to have someone who can drive the net WITH the puck?

Bissonnette?

I like the deal. Miller will help us remain competitive while mentoring Lack and Markstrom.

Bottom line, Miller is still a world class goalie who can steal games. Last year was an off year, with a bunch of trade drama. New team, new start, I think he will be great for the Canucks.

Sounds familiar - does he tank in the playoffs too? Seemed like it last season.

Sheeniqua would harden up in the cold nights.

Pretty much sums up the problem of signing miller from the botch article:

Yup, nicely put by botch

I wouldn't say he tanked IMO you need more time to get to know your team as a goalie. Trade deadline goalie deals don't work IMO but I am sure someone here can come up with stats and proof against my statement. Goalies are a different breed it takes time to get to know your teams style of play and defenceman tendencies.

This is a tough signing. we now have $9.1 mill in goalies if you consider the retained Luo salary. That is way too much. He really should have been signed at $5mil instead of 6. Not a bad term but the salary is a bit too high. We still have 4 roster spots and $11.7 mil left right? Kassian, Tanev and Vey and Weber/sanotelli/ etc.

Curious case of Markstom right now. Will he be an NHL goalie or is he a back up at best. Big goalie but he probably needs to shipped out after we just drafter our next future goalie. Miller then Lack then Demko...at least on paper.

Lets hope that Horvat, Fox or a combo of youngling make the team.

The Eastern Conference should just fold

You aren't thinking Siberia enough. I'm thinking frozen lake, polar bear rape, sh!t in a cold bucket Siberia. I hear the phone reception is fantastic though.

damn, didn't even take that into consideration well, at least there are those promiscuous goats readily available. But yes, I'm going to have to rethink this whole thing. Sheneequa deserves that at least

That reminds me, I know lots of the guys on here are from the island/northern BC. Just wondering how the cost of living is out there/work opportunities? I'm looking to gtfo out of the city. Too many kaptaans around

Nice update, thank you for sharing. I wouldn't mind seeing Setoguchi or Vrbata on 1 yr deals.
