I think JT Miller is a great pickup. It was a high price to pay... and if the Canucks squeak into the playoffs next season (which I think they could), it may end up being a 3rd round pick and 15th/16th overall in a deep draft class.
I think it would have been easier to stomach if it was the conditional 1st round pick and a B level prospect, without including the 3rd rounder.

Why are we wasting time meeting with Myers who wants 7+mil a season when we can acquire Colin Miller for half the money and half the term and we dont have to give anything significant to get him.

Nonis did manage to get out of the Clarkson contract. I believe I was listening to Leafs Lunch live when the trade was announced out of no where. At the time, no one thought he could move that contract. Granted he was the one who signed him to that ridiculous contract in the first place, with everyone including myself immediately thinking he overpaid. Also granted some believe others in the organization made that trade possible and all he had to do was pick up the phone.

CJB couldn't afford to pay out of pocket for Horton's uninsured contract, but the insured contract of a player who could still contribute was better for them. Leafs wanted the open roster spot, so the deal made sense for both.

Can someone explain? Why didn't Panthers just buy Reimer out instead? Why trade for someone with a higher contract to buy him out ... don't say it was for the 6th round pick. Panthers trade Reimer to 'Canes for Darling; place Darling on buyout waivers
The Florida Panthers have traded James Reimer to the Carolina Hurricanes in exchange for Scott Darling and a sixth round draft pick.
The 31-year-old Reimer has two years remaining on his contract at $3.4 million per season.
Darling has two years left on his contract at $4.1 million with the Panthers placing him on unconditional waivers for the purpose of a buyout.
