Surprised it took $6M... pretty clear they were the only west coast team with any interest.

Decent term, more money than I would have paid.
I like the fact Vancouver is doing a lot to finish 8-10th rather than doing a full rebuild.
They easily could have been a contender for McDavid and had a lot of good pieces for the future but Miller and the Sisters should be able to keep them out of the bottom 5 next year.

Please.... this isn't Mike Gillis' team any more. Jim Benning is smarter than that. Not gonna happen.

Good signing by the Canucks. Dang, why did they get rid of Mike Gillis? I hate that Benning is doing a good job in Vancouver...

Only 6 mil? His stock fell off a cliff from the start of last season.

Miller sucks. Seriously. The guy is so over rated. Glad he's a Canuck!

They still have nothing up front and without Garrison currently have four NHL defensemen.

So they had Luongo and Schneider, but that didn't work, so they had to trade one of them. Then they decided to trade Schneider and that Lack was good enough for the #1 spot. Oooops, Lack isn't a #1 goalie, so now they bring in Miller.
What a strange few years in the Vancouver goalie circus.

finished 19th in Save percentage, and 16th in 5 on 5 sv%
he should be traded at this point, while he has value, he will be 29 by the time this deal is up

Honestly if they trade Lack now I'll laugh my balls off when he's outperforming Miller by halfway through the season.

Lack kept asking Luongo to go out for dinner and then when he did he choose this romantic place in New York I think, Luongo tweeted during it

I prefer to frame it as him making a massive mistake going to Vancouver
