We know Miller will be traded, it's just a matter of time. It's not quite a foregone conclusion that Co-Captain Vanek will be dealt, but it seems likely since he too is in the final year of his deal.

Here's my completely baseless prediction: Miller to Calgary, Vanek to Nashville.

Both to Philly in the craziest, biggest deal you've ever seen.

Giroux is now a man of questionable character, don't you know?

Vanek to Philly is a pretty good fit. Flyers can't score and I'm sure Buffalo would be very interested in Courturier.

Oh, and Miller/Vanek for Yak/salary dumpage is too stupid to not happen.

"Exploratory talks"? What the hell is this?

Honestly, I can't understand how in the world he's still on the team. Well, right NOW I can because there's no GM, but he should've been sent away already.

Supposedly LaFontaine has been tough on everyone in the organization. They may not get a GM for a while.

He's going about it an odd way. Keeps hiring people except the GM. Even Friedman noted that you should probably get the GM in there first so he can hire his own people, right?

The Sabres have some solid assets to deal and can't right now because there's no one able to, unless PL has given the interim guy permission to do so (which I doubt). I think given the really bad timing of the firing, they just need to get a guy in there. It's not that hard to find a qualified executive out there.

Personally I'd give Joe Nieuwendyk another shot--I thought he did well given the crap hand he was given in Dallas.

Right now I'd love to see Garth Yellow Snow make himself part of another trade to bring Moulson back.
