No surprise. His ice time had essentially disappeared.

[LindG1000]

Official now. Waiting on return, but Canucks took the full contract

Conditional 1st, 3rd, Mazanec

[josh]

1st! Wow

[Pete]

Because he's a good hockey player, despite what you read here.

[Dunny]

Hope he sees this, bro

Agreed. He was actually one of the better Bolts in their playoff flop this year. Still, a good return for the Bolts considering the cap space they are opening. I'm only worried that with Cally and JT both gone, the Bolts may feel the need to restock on Rangers. I'd rather deal with someone else!

[Worle Ranger]

No Cally. No Miller. No moxie down there any longer.

Getting rid of the Rangers. Mcd and S are next

[BrooksBurner]

Lol Vancouver got ripped off

[Keirik]

I really don't get the JT hate. Just because he had that look of a dick doesn't mean he's a bad player lol

He's a 45-55 point player that usually can pot about 20 goals and bang bodies and pk as well. If he's overpaid, it's not by that much. I actually think he would have fit in well with the current Rangers staff and team.

[Abe Froman]

Another Ex-Ranger that I don't miss. Along with Callahan.

[Dunny]

His salary is actually quite reasonable, really. I just think he's a douche, skates like he's flat footed and the three goals in 60 something playoff games is just absolutely sublime.

[Parsley]

Meh.

He's a good player.

You don't normally give up a 1st, 3rd and a piece for a good middle sixer though. I don't get this at all from a Canucks standpoint.

[Slobberknocker]

i dont either. not disputing miller's talent but questioning why vancouver felt they had to give up so much for a team that's in cap hell.

 

figures tampa get's cally off on ltir, and actually salary dumps miller for a 1st and more. stupid canucks.

[Dunny]

Vancouver is desperate. I don't think it's easy attracting top talent there. They're never a player on the top end of the market.

 

I saw Koshan (I think) say in The Sun that if it they fail to make playoffs in the next two years, it won't be Benning's problem as he'll be toast anyways.

It's possible there were multiple teams in on Miller. I think they overpaid, but it isn't like other cap dumps where a player is 35 and no longer effective. Miller is in his prime and under contract.

[Dunny]

On a reasonable contract, even. But, it's still a big overpay. There's a rwasonable chance it ends up being 5th overall.

There's just as reasonable a chance that its 22nd in 2021. VAN is lottery protected in next year's draft, it's pretty low risk, as far as first-rounders go.

i would think kreider would command more in return.

A prosptect, probably, but not too much as a pending UFA.
