Recent reports have surfaced from a former NHL assistant GM Steve Werier as he has proposed a three-way trade involving the Rangers, Canucks, and Red Wings that moves veteran Chris Kreider.
Former NHL executive Steve Werier has been away from hockey for some time but recently he has proposed a blockbuster trade between three-teams.
Werier was hired by the Florida Panthers back in 2016 and was fired in 2017 right before the Vegas Golden Knights game expansion draft.
Steve Werier has been relieved of his duties as FLA assistant GM. Actually, the move was made a while ago, prior to the NHL expansion draft.
However, Werier took to social media and proposed a three-team trade that would send Chris Kreider to the Detroit Red Wings, and JT Miller to the Rangers. Ultimately resolving the issue between him and Elias Pettersson.
To the Canucks: JT Compher (4x5.1), Ryan Lindgren (4.5/expiring), DET 2025 2nd, & the higher of DET's two 2025 3rds.
To the Rangers: JT Miller (4x8)
To the Wings: Chris Kreider (3x6.5)
To the Rangers: JT Miller (4x8)
To the Wings: Chris Kreider (3x6.5)
The trade would see the Rangers giving up Chris Kreider and Ryan Lindgren to get JT Miller back. Then the Red Wings would have to trade JT Compher and two draft picks in the 2025 NHL Draft for Chris Kreider. Then finally, the Canucks would be giving up JT Miller to receive all the pieces.
Definitely a confusing way to get the trade done, but this would cover many issues for the three organizations, the main one being the feud between Miller and Pettersson, and then the Rangers would get a much needed roster shake up, if they could acquire their former forward.
