Major turn of events involving J.T Miller in Vancouver and it involves the Blackhawks
The Chicago Blackhawks will likely be sellers at the trade deadline, but they could attempt to secure 100-point Vancouver Canucks forward, JT Miller.
With the Vancouver Canucks locker room in turmoil as Elias Pettersson and JT Miller's spat has become public, the team will have to resolve the issue.
This is to maintain a positive environment in the locker room and to give someone like Elias Pettersson room to grow in a way that benefits his game, and personality.
While we shouldn't expect the Chicago Blackhawks to become Stanley Cup contenders overnight, the current team as it's constructed could be improved, and there's rumors buzzing that the Canucks are listening in on bother Miller and Pettersson.
Since Elias Pettersson is only 26, it is a safe bet that they will keep the young center as a result of long-term plans. While the team could move Miller, which would involve convincing him to waive his no-trade clause.
NHL Insider Elliotte Friedman feels that the Blackhawks are a team that could acquire JT Miller.
The current crop of veterans the Blackhawks have on the roster aren't equipped to complement Connor Bedard, compared to someone like Miller.
While Nick Foligno, Tyler Bertuzzi, Jason Dickinson, and Teuvo Teravainen have put forth their best efforts, someone like JT Miller could produce at a high level and give Connor Bedard the kind of support he needs.
While his cap hit is an affordable $8 Million AAV, GM Kyle Davidson could figure out which veterans to move in order to keep the salary cap flexible enough for the rebuild to continue and add Miller.
This season the forward has scored 25 points(6 G, 19 A) in 28 games with Vancouver Canucks.
