Details Emerge on The How Much The Bruins Are Still Paying Mitchell Miller
Following the comments from Bettman mentioning Mitchell Miller will never play in the NHL, the Bruins released Miller from his non-NHL contract.
People thought that releasing Miller could just let the Bruins forget this every happened. Well, that is not the case.
According to NHL insider Larry Brooks (via Hockey Feed), the Bruins could be forced to pay Miller the entire salary for this season, which would be $82,500.
That is just the least of it, though, as Brooks believes that the Bruins will have to buyout Miller's contract for a whopping $516,000, plus a $285,000 signing bonus.
There are other things involved as it will be a multi-party representation for the hearings, so anything could happen, but the buyout is the most-likely scenario.
Here are a few quotes from Jeff Marek:
''A couple of things are starting to emerge,''.
''One the NHL, the Players Association, and the Miller camp could come to some type of understanding on what to do with the contract, how to terminate it and what the compensation would be. But as of earlier today I was told none of those conversations have happened yet.''
''What might be more likely is Miller stays in the AHL, earns his AHL salary... and then in the offseason gets bought out at one third of the remaining two years on that contract... that would be the NHL contract not the AHL contract''
