As of right now, the team has stated both themselves and through their usual media lackeys that there is no rush to trade Miller. The urgency to make a trade is only with the fans, not management. They are not "past waiting for a perfect deal" so much as if they do trade Miller before the season starts it will only be "for the perfect deal". If team's aren't going to offer what they're looking for (cheap, young RHD) then they'll keep him until he's signed or the dead line. The trade has to be one they can't say no too. If there was an urgency to trade him they would be letting other teams talk extensions with him.

Think Canucks would have any interest in a deal based around Rasmus Andersson?
