So sick of new goalies.

Would this move be for expansion purposes? I forget the particulars, but I think we need to expose a goalie that is under contract for next season.
Or does Rittich count?

Don't see the Flames acquiring Halak. Too many options in the offseason.

McCollum counts as our goalie requirement for the expansion.

Tom McCollum counts for this. Signed back in October for expansion reasons. Has played one game in the AHL and five in the ECHL for us since.

The Alberta teams are not on Ryan Miller's trade-approved list, and thus far, San Jose has shown little interest. #Canucks

I would be interested in a Halak+Strome swap for Elliott/Johnson + Chaisson

The wanting to live closer to LA for his wife's career thing is pretty funny. She's a pretty minor actress and he's pulling in 6 million a year. Maybe just play wherever will pay you.

The UFA list for forwards is just putrid. The only marginal improvements that I see are Parenteau, Vrbata, Stafford and Sharp. I don't see how any would be worth it, unless it is Wideman going back. Not very likely.
The D list is slightly better, but that only devalues Wideman (if that is possible). Kulikov, Franson and Oduya might help a playoff team, for sure, but that is about it.

Yes, but was making it up. Based on timelines of when we played them last, give it 1-2 weeks

hes been steadily trending down for 3 years, looks like he peaked in year 2 of his NHL career to me.
There is no chance he holds more value than Bennett does at this point, except maybe to Dim Jim and Oil fans

The Flames may have shown interest in Ryan Miller:
What?!? No! Not that guy! No!
Ryan Miller has the Flames on a list of teams he won't be traded to:
What? The nerve! What a jerk! Never wanted him here anyway!

Miller would have been a good fit.
Even if Cgy was on his list, I can't see Vancouver handing him to us without a high premium.
Pass.

Miller has said that if a team is interested and it's not on his list, the team can go to him and they can discuss. May not happen, but it's not a slam dunk that he's not coming here.

Hmm but ive heard hes been attrocious. I just read Oduyas still on the market. He would be a great upgrade and He could slide up the lineup in case Brodie or Gio get injured. Imagine having to Put Bartkowski in the top 4 in case of an injury.
