The Colorado Avalanche had major interest in adding J.T. Miller from the Vancouver Canucks before he was traded to the New York Rangers.

After all, Martin Necas is a good hockey player, but is he the only player the Colorado management ... of BPM Sports, the Avalanche really thought that J.T. Miller was going to agree to lift ...

Now, a shocking new report has come out from insider Renaud Lavoie, who is now reporting that Miller shut down a major deal that would have sent him to the Colorado Avalanche, making it clear that his intent was to return to the New York Rangers if he were to be moved.

J.T. Miller reportedly turned down a trade to the Colorado Avalanche before joining the New York Rangers, according to insider Renaud Lavoie.

Behind a two-point night from Miller and a strong showing from his line, the Rangers trounced the Predators, 4-0, Sunday night at Madison Square Garden to pull within two points of the second wild card as part of a three-way tie with the Bruins and Senators.

New York Rangers forward J.T. Miller blew up a major trade prior to being moved to the Rangers.

It has been just over a month since the New York Rangers acquired J.T. Miller. The forward was traded after a devastating spell with the Vancouver Canucks where he was part of a public feud with Elias Pettersson. But he seems to have found his mojo in the Big Apple.

The NHL trade deadline is less than 24 hours away. So far, the NHL season had two blockbuster trades before the 4 Nations Face-Off break. Mikko Rantanen was dealt by the Colorado Avalanche to the Carolina Hurricanes and J.T. Miller was traded by the Vancouver Canucks to the New York Rangers.

Right now, the topic of the hour is the Mikko Rantanen case. He’s not making headlines for the right reasons (his contract and physical shape are at the heart of the story) and I’m wondering more and more if he won’t be playing for four clubs in 2025.
