It's been a little over a month since the Vancouver Canucks made the decision to part ways with J.T. Miller, offloading the veteran center in a blockbuster trade with the New York Rangers. That trade effectively put an end to the feud between Miller and Canucks captain Elias Pettersson which had been reported about at length throughout the season.

Since the trade, Miller has absolutely flourished with the Rangers, while Pettersson's season-long woes have not only continued, but gotten worse. Miller has 14 points in 11 games with New York since the trade, having looked more like the 103-point scorer from last season. As for Pettersson, he's recorded just three points in the 10 games since Miller's departure and hasn't scored a single goal in his last 14 games.
