The Canucks are not entirely out of options here, as they can still trade Miller to recoup some assets, but they're certainly going to have a tough time replacing a fringe 100-point player. Unlike the
Matthew Tkachuk situation in Calgary, I doubt Miller will be open to the idea of re-opening discussions on a potential sign and trade to help the Canucks out once he shuts the door on in-season negotiations. Further to that, if Miller simply waits and plays out the season, he'll have his pick of the litter next summer.
