They say he could actually be here after next season, not sure how, since he’s signed for two in the K
If he can't get to N.A. sooner, It'll be difficult if not impossible for him to get time on NHL size ice, so;
That begs the question; Would there be anything stopping him from getting in some time with some other players on
small ice in the summer? Even if it is just f**king around.
Consider two years in KHL, then how long to adjust to NHL, (style), ice size and speed.
A quick training camp is nothin.

This is when the KHL starts;

Check that - supposedly the 2nd isn’t included? Maybe a straight cap dump.

Pierre LeBrun
‏The Canucks are taking on the full weight of JT Miller’s contract which has four more years at a $5.25M cap hit. That’s key for cap-challenged Tampa obviously. The Canucks get a real good player though.

Sutter must be moving on?

Would Eriksson be the first to go?

Trade rumour, nothing posted yet. Probably waiting for their 2nd pick to come up.

I'm guessing we have a glut of centres now - hopefully both Sutter and Eriksson are gone.

if nothing else, JT Miller is durable -- 82, 82, 82 & 75 games last 4 seasons. Of course, joining #Canucks will put that to the test
