Former Vancouver Canucks player Brad Richardson says he warned GM Patrik Allvin about what J.T. Miller needed to succeed.

The Vancouver Canucks may have given up the wrong player. The Canucks traded J.T. Miller to the Rangers on Friday, but that was the wrong move in the eyes of some players. Some players in Vancouver are not happy with the blockbuster trade according to NHL insider Frank Seravalli.

It’s a trade that makes the club younger. Chytil comes with a lot of risk given his history of head injuries, but he’s a capable short-term solution down the middle of Vancouver’s forward ranks, with upside in an expanded role provided that he’s able to stay healthy — which is admittedly a significant “if.”
