Honestly, I think this was a good trade for the Canucks. Lack crumbled under the pressure of the C of Red, and it's never a good thing to have a goalie that can't elevate their game. They would be better if they didn't have Miller and acquired a different young goalie, but what can you do. Hopefully (for them) Markstrom can do something for them this year, otherwise they'll have to go back to the drawing board.

Also, Demko is likely not going to be the saviour and the Canucks will need another couple in the pipeline soon. That's why the Flames got all three of MacDonald, Gillies and Ortio. You need 3 or 4 good prospects in hopes that one can become something good. Having only 1 is too big a risk.
