Vancouver Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin says he’s open to making a trade — as long as the deal makes sense for the team.

The Vancouver Canucks are poised to fundamentally reimagine the direction of their franchise. It’s a process that could significantly alter the club’s short-term standing and priorities, and it nearly began rather dramatically over the weekend.

Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin on Monday declined to address reports that forward J.T. Miller was nearly traded to the Rangers over the weekend.

There was momentum on J.T. Miller getting traded to the New York Rangers on Saturday, but the deal collapsed per NHL insider Elliotte Friedman. Miller was supposedly being held out of Saturday night's game against the Edmonton Oilers while some AHL players in the Rangers organization were scratched.

The New York Rangers are reportedly trying to trade for Canucks center J.T. Miller. But Adam Proteau says they can't make a Miller trade make sense for them right now.

The Canucks and Rangers were reportedly set to pull the trigger on a major trade involving JT Miller, but it fell through.

The Vancouver Canucks are at an impasse with star forwards J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson. Both players are amid deep cold spells inspired by an off-ice rift, resulting in plenty of trade rumors.

The Rangers and Canucks reportedly nearly had a deal completed for J.T. Miller and the framework of that trade had come out.
