The New York Rangers have “recently inquired” about a potential trade for Vancouver Canucks forward J.T. Miller, according to The Athletic’s Arthur Staple and Peter Baugh.
Miller last played on Nov. 17 before the Canucks announced he was taking “indefinite leave for personal reasons.”
Staple and Baugh called the inquiry “a long shot” due both to Miller’s leave and his contract. The 31-year-old forward is currently in the second season of a seven-year, $56 million deal he signed with the Canucks in 2022.
The Rangers also pursued Miller ahead of the 2021-22 trade deadline, but the deal fell apart because New York was unwilling to trade Braden Schneider, per Staple and Baugh.
