Their big moves are adding the following;
Miller: $5.25 million
Myers: $6 million
Ferland: $3.5 million (speculated)
Miller is a good player who will help but Myers isn't that great and Ferland is very streaky and injury prone. All I see here is a 1st round pick and a lot of money ($15 million/season) spent to become "improved". What Western team is going to fall out of the playoffs for this team to sneak in next season? After all this has largely been a "playoff or bust" off-season for the Canucks.
