{Trade} J.T. Miller to Canucks

Good point.

I assume Miller didn't have a NMC. I suspect Kucherov and others in Tampa who take a pay cut to play in a low-tax State would have a NMC.

Anyone care to predict Miller's production in Vancouver next season? He should be a feature on the team's top power play unit.

NMC can only be added on UFA seasons. Miller did have one in this contract but it wasn't about to kick in until July 1st this year and now that he's been traded the new team doesn't necessarily have to honour that part of his contract at all.

Kucherov in in the same boat as his doesn't activate until July 1st 2020. Subban was the same too, he was traded from Mtl days before the NMC locked him it.

"If" in the next two years Vancouver squeaks into the playoffs - Benning will be able to justify this trade.

This, once again has Aquilini Brothers influence written all over it.

One could argue if Miller hits 60pts with Van - on it's face - this deal could be seen as 'fair value'

The obvious problem is that Van needs the 1st way more than they need Miller.

What a shitty shadow to lay over two beauty picks to start the draft.

Miller had a MNTC starting this upcoming yr. (kicks in Jul 1st) 8-team no trade list.

Kuch has a NMC kicking in 2019-20 as well. Still can be moved without his consent.

---EDIT---

I messed up the years on the NMC

Kucherov. NMC kicks in 2020-21 season. He has a 11mill signing bonus this yr that kicks in on July1st. So that's how he kinda got his own NMC. I'm assuming this is still technically an RFA yr for him, and players can't have NMC/NTC during RFA yrs.

JT Miller. Has a MNTC that kicks in on July 1st, 2019.

Thanks for the clarification!
