A monster trade announced at the Montreal draft?

With the 2022 NHL Draft in Montreal fast approaching, many whistleblowers are revealing a lot of information about possible trades to come.

As we know, the draft is always a time of year when there are big moves and this year will be no exception.

Several big names could move, such as Alex DeBrincat, Kevin Fiala and J.T. Miller.

Let's focus on this for a second, because journalist Irfaan Gaffar just revealed an interesting piece of information: we could see a monster trade, live from Montreal, in the 2022 draft.


Several interesting elements add up:

1 - The New Jersey Devils are perfectly open to trading their 2nd overall pick

2 - The Vancouver Canucks are perfectly open to trading their star forward J.T. Miller and they want to make a big move, plus get a little younger.

3 - The Devils have been very interested, for a long time, in acquiring Miller.

If you add up those three points, you possibly have a fit. It will be interesting to watch, but don't be surprised if such a trade is announced, on stage, live at the Bell Centre.

TO VANCOUVER - 2nd overall pick.

TO NEW JERSEY - JT Miller (and possibly a pick).

This would be very big, but it certainly seems possible. Who do you think would win the trade?

On the Miller side, we're still talking about a forward with 99 points this season, and who has produced at a rate of 88 points/82 games over the past 3 years. Really impressive.

He is 29 years old and signed until 2023. (5.25 million per season)
