Negotiations continue regarding a possible transaction involving JT Miller des Canucks.
Since yesterday, the insiders of the NHL report that the Rangers and Canucks are working on a trade that would send Miller to New York.
Today, Larry Brooks who has excellent sources in the Rangers entourage, confirms that the name ofAlexis Lafrenière has been seriously involved in the negotiations until now and that Mika Zibanejad will not be part of the transaction, if it goes through.
Mika Zibanejad will not be part of what is sent to Vancouver in a potential trade for Miller… Alexis Lafreniere’s name is believed to loom large in the discussions.

A rather surprising statement, but at the same time, we know that the negotiations hit a wall yesterday so it is very likely that on the New York side, there is no question of letting go of Lafrenière who has just signed a contract extension .
-He is having a difficult season with only 25 points in 45 games, but that is the case for several players on the Rangers. For example, Kreider only has 16 points and Zibanejad has 27.
In short, this issue risks generating a lot more talk in the coming hours and days if it drags on.
