[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks
BPA replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
BOS may be a destination for Miller. Apparently Pastrnak hesitant signing a long term deal with BOS. Citing not winning. BOS will have tons of cap space next year to afford both him and a Miller extension. Miller + Hogz for Zacha + Carlo + 1st -

Pass on NYI. Unless they include a blue chip prospect(s), no deal. -

Unless Dobson wants out like MT and Eichel. -

According to some posters, they believe Kadri contract ups the value of Miller to the tune of a $60M retirement contract. -
[Signing] Flames sign Nazem Kadri

They are going “all in”. Then most likely start a rebuild once their window closes (4-5yrs). -

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. So I won’t argue on that. -

Quite possible. Now that Kadri is off the market, there may be some talks picking up from other teams to see who’s available. -

First of all… Miller is not as good as JH ($10.5M) and JG ($9.75M) production wise throughout their careers. Miller seems to fall in line somewhere between with what Forsberg ($8.5M) and Kadri ($7M) signed. So using that as a basis… $8.5M x 6yrs = $51M $7.75 x 7yrs = $54.25M $7M x 8yrs = $56M Pretty much in the ballpark that I suggested in previous posts. Around the $50M mark. -

There are several contracts signed this season. From JH $10.5M to Kadri $7M. Forsberg was around $8M. So now there’s a few comparable contracts to work with. There were rumours of Kadri getting upwards to $8-9M (from NYI). If Miller was thinking he’s worth that range, the recent Kadri signing should take that down a notch. -

At the very least, it should bring down Millers ask. Perhaps this will help both reach a compromise to a re-signing. -

There were rumours for trading Lucic back to Boston. Probably with retention and picks to offload that contract. -

Not a problem. COL will just have to trade Newhook and Byram to the Canucks for Miller. -

So it’s $7M x 7yr. Does this bring down Miller potential cap hit? EDIT: I’d be OK with $7-7.5M x 8yrs. Let’s go!!!!!! -

FYI…this is what JG said… “Calgary has a special place in my heart,” he said, gushing about the way he has been treated by the organization, his teammates, fans and even the local media since he was selected as a fourth-round long-shot in the 2011 NHL Draft. “Everything about this city, I love. My wife loves it here. You guys can tell on Twitter — my uncle, my dad, my mom, my sisters, my brother, everyone loves Calgary. It has a special place in our heart and we love it here, so we’ll see what happens. “It’s kind of a big decision here and I’m just going to try to figure out what’s best for me first and my family and go from there, but Calgary is a special place for me and I do really, really love it here.” -

That’s the kicker. Last I heard was that they are “far apart”. Both Miller and JR said that. Guessing Miller is asking $9-10M x 8yrs while JR/PA offering $7-8M x 6yrs. -

So is it that Canucks NEED Miller to make the playoffs?? -

Maybe the belief of some posters is to “just make the playoffs and anything can happen”??? Sorta like the Cinderella run of STL and MTL?? -

If Miller signs for $8M x 7yrs and Bo signs for $7M x 8yrs…Canucks would be primed to be contenders (with other trades to beef up the D). I can dream… -

Perhaps it will be the Calgary Flames?? JG walked away for nothing. Flames got that valuable playoff experience. So surely they will win the cup soon, right?? -

Cup winners let players walk for nothing but hardly those of Miller calibre. Wouldn’t you agree? -

I heard Calgary loves it. Thanking Johnny for the good playoff run and leaving Calgary for greener pastures. Edit: Found this article that was posted on May 28th. We all know it turned out. https://www.nhl.com/news/johnny-gaudreau-wants-to-stay-with-flames/c-334368392 Gaudreau says he'd like to remain with Flames, win Stanley Cup in Calgary -

I may be mis-remembering but isn’t that the term JR used in his press release? So perhaps then JR is willing to accept anything??? This is a except I found on CanucksArmy (July 28th) on JR interview with Bob McCown podcast. As far as a timeline is concerned, next year’s trade deadline was brought up as the point of no return for Miller. “If we don’t have him signed and nobody’s made an offer that makes sense for us, then you don’t really have any other choice. We really don’t want to be in a position that we don’t get anything in return if we can’t keep him.”
