Boeser has had the most success of his Canucks tenure when riding shotgun with Miller. Miller’s playmaking ability down low was an excellent fit with Boeser’s finishing ability from the inner slot. With Miller gone, the risk and uncertainty around committing a six- or seven-year contract to Boeser increases.

Well, the Vancouver Canucks couldn’t solve their internal problems, so they went outside their organization to rip the bandaid off the wound. But that doesn’t mean things are all fixed; far from it.

The saga between J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson is officially over now that the Vancouver Canucks have traded Miller to the New York Rangers. Rumors, drama and turmoil have circulated around the Canucks organization for months due to a reported feud between Miller and Pettersson.
