<p>Sportsnet&#8217;s Elliotte Friedman released a short <a href="https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/32-thoughts-how-record-profits-in-nhl-could-impact-salary-cap-next-cba/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">32 Thoughts article late Wednesday night</a>, which included the report of the teams mentioned above that are cleared to speak with Miller&#8217;s camp. He also notes that the Hurricanes are a team to watch as they are active and ready to pounce on any potential target of theirs.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The Hurricanes and Rangers are two of the teams with permission to talk to J.T. Miller. Believe the New York offer was Filip Chytil, a first-rounder and a prospect. I get very mixed messages on New Jersey. The Rangers have the cap room to do it, but the Devils would need to perform roster surgery to pull it off. Yes, they struggled until pounding Boston on Wednesday, but that’s a good team. I’m not convinced about Dallas, either. I always assume I’m missing something, though.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Miller&#8217;s contract carries a full no-movement clause, meaning that teams would be seeking permission to talk with him before getting to work on a trade with the Canucks for the veteran centre&#8217;s services.</p>
<p>Friedman later added that Elias Pettersson spoke with the front office about his desire to remain in Vancouver. Given where things seem to stand with Miller, the Swedish centre may have his wish granted when this saga is over.</p>
