While the Devils’ GM Tom Fitzgerald has openly stated his interest in adding a player who provides “extra oomph,” as told to Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic on Friday, Friedman dismissed the likelihood of a Miller deal with New Jersey.

Another Eastern Conference team has entered the J.T Miller sweepstakes on Friday, as rumors continue to swirl about his future with the Vancouver Canucks.

The Vancouver Canucks came close to dealing J.T. Miller to the New York Rangers earlier today per a new report.

During Sportsnet's "Saturday Headlines" segment, Friedman reported that the Canucks were close to trading Miller to the Rangers, with talks advancing to the point where the 31-year-old was expected to be scratched from the lineup.

J.T. Miller appears the more likely center to move in a trade out of Vancouver, according to TSN's Elliotte Friedman.

In the immortal words of Staind, “It’s been a while…” You don’t need to spend a ton of time on social media to know that it sure sounds like a JT Miller trade is back on the menu.

On Friday, more trade rumours surrounding Vancouver Canucks center J.T. Miller emerged. According to Rick Dhaliwal of "Donnie and Dhali," many teams have checked in on Miller, including the New Jersey Devils.
