Confirmed Signing with Link: [TBL] Tampa re-signs J.T. Miller (5 years, $5.25M AAV)

[VoluntaryDom]

Does this make Tyler Johnson available?

It yes, Bolts fans - what do you want for Johnson?

he probably is available but im not gonna set a price bc I know im only gonna get back lowball offers.

 

[VoluntaryDom]

For Miller maybe

and for tampa, miller was close to point-per-game since his arrival in TB

 

[Sky04]

He can be really good in short spurts with anyone. Or he can totally stop caring at any moment and start coasting around and trying to force stupid passes.

He's not a bad player overall but I don't think TB is wise to invest 5 years in him because he exacerbates their biggest issue as a team.

He's 25 years old, I'd say it's a pretty safe deal to invest on a player of his mold from ages 26-30.......

 

[EdJovanovski]

Horrible LOL

 

[aufheben]

Tampa fans in this thread don't seem to like Miller and that surprises me, has he been that bad?

Everyone was too busy worshipping Yzerman at the deadline to consider why Gorton traded him.

 

[BigTruzz]

Bad contract

 

[Deen]

How do you know who opens to accept the other?

Tie goes to the MOD I guess.

 

[robertocarlos]

Sorry, no JT for you./

 

[member 298589]

Bit of a bozo contract imo...

 

[McOvechking]

Seems more like a $4.5M player to me. Gotta think this means Tampa lost out on Tavares

 

[Sol]

Wow. Bad contract

lol what did he play 18 games? And then flopped in the playoffs.

 

[glasgow26]

I like JT Miller, but that is a lot of cash

Name me a player who scored 58pts who is getting 4.5 Million ?

he didn't flop in the nj or bos series, just the caps series (and every forward on the team besides Stamkos and Point flopped in that series)

Wennberg scored 59 and is getting 4.9.

Is Miller likely to be a consistent 55-60 point guy? If so, maybe the contract is fair. I guess the cap is going up too.

5 million is fair for Miller. NTC is a little shit but it's not the worst NTC

Wennberg is on a steal contract then. Miller was our highest point producer after the trade deadline. As long as he continues to get that time and space in the regular season he should be just as good. Maybe better with more time on Stamkos and Kucherov line.

Miller was lights out in the regular season. He is still really young. If he can manage to transfer that to the playoffs it'll be all good.

and no this doesnt take us out of the Tavares running. Yzerman can still move Miller, Johnson, Killorn or buy out a guy like Coburn to make space.

How about TJ + Callahan for a 6th? As long as Tavares agrees to come here that is...

 

[dogbazinho]

Seems high.

a poster proposed Johnson+Callahan+Dotchi. for McLeod from NJ

Most seemed to agree with it

 

[Maple Leaf]

Too much cash Y

5.25 for Miller is nuts.

 

[Mr Tadakichi]

Ah , So the J.T stands for John Tavares. That makes sense.
