Some positive news, US hockey informed JT will be back in the NHL much sooner than the start of the 4 Nations Cup and will definitely be available for the tournament.
Where did you read this part?

All I saw was the tweet where they said they expect him back for the tournament.

That could still mean he doesn't return until late January though.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Miller said or did something to Pettersson that the club felt crossed the line. A lot of us fans have been losing our minds with Pettersson and his level of play. Imagine how somebody like Miller views Pettersson.
Nah.

Miller has seen Pettersson struggling with his injury first hand day in day out.

Its just the handful of weird fans that pretend he was playing bad out of spite.

I see we've entered the "making shit up" stage of the story. Looking forward to the "made-up thing being received as hard truth" chapter still to come.
The team has left the field wiiide open for speculation.

Back for the tournament means February which means a possible 2+ month absence.

I don't know if that's positive, although it's better than the entire season, I guess.

This comes from Patrick Johnston's article.

“Don’t start making stuff up on someone in his situation. That’s disrespectful,” [Rutherford] said. “People that do this for fun, or for a living, just go back to making up trade rumours.”

But to be clear, the Canucks are not trading Miller.

“No, we are not (trading him),” Rutherford said flatly. “We stand by him.”

Rutherford setting the record straight.

To be fair...he never said anything about maybe waiving or mutually terminating JT Miller's contract!

Seriously, there is so much bullshit that comes from X and Reddit.

Thought it was pretty clear when the Rangers inquired and were told the Canucks weren’t interested in moving Miller. JR still had to go on record just to make it crystal clear for everyone.
