<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>fckmattcooke</b></div><div>Now you all understand how Canucks fans look when they suggest Miller is worth Byram</div></div>

JT Miller is 12th in the nhl right now for scoring, is a #1 center can pk and hits and is defensively responsible, Not many #1 centers are 2 way ppg powerfowards and Miller is just that, and he makes checks notes... 5.2Mill with a year and a half left, so yes Miller's value is sky high right Byram has ongoing concussion symptoms which really decreases his value, the last prospect that got traded with the same type of issues was Nolan Patrick, you can't tell me Ryan Ellis is a top 15 Dman in the league right now. Don't think most teams would trade their #1 center for Byram right now one for one, let alone a guy like Miller

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sporkknife</b></div><div>Which leads to an interesting discussion about the merits of the CHL. He definitely shouldn't return to junior IMO. It would be a great option if he could play in the AHL if he looks like he needs it.</div></div>

I agree completely. The CHL is not going to help him. But he shouldn't be at the NHL level IMO.
He's lost a lot of time on the ice due to covid. I think you can tell that looking at him play in WJC. He's been set back. He needs development. the CHL isn't a great place for that, especially if it's for 2 years.
But if you bring him in you get a byfield situation. Where he looks clueless at the NHL level but they don't have anywhere else to put him.

I think he's in a bad spot and that's all there is to it. He should have developed more but that was taken from him. So now, he's either stuck in a league where the level of play isn't high enough to help him, or he plays in the NHL and is probably above his head and could negatively impact his development.
He should be in the AHL. But that isn't an option.
