23 years old
6'3 210
45 points of which only 3 came on the powerplay
-5v5 on-ice shooting % of 11.4 so a little fortunate but not a PDO bender by any means
Kills penalties
Positive relative possession player
Tied with Pospisil for third in the league in hits
With Gavrikov rumoured to be signing with the Rangers for >$8 million, they will have at most $5 million in cap space to sign Miller and Cuylle. Assume Miller gets moved but would love to swindle Cuylle for second-round RFA compensation.

Looking at the list more carefully, KA Miller, Rossi and Nick Robertson are players that have been on trade lists so those might be the ones to watch.
Pull a boss move and offer sheet Cuylle and Miller and you are likely to get one of the two.
