Jim Rutherford publicly called out Vancouver's two biggest stars on Tuesday, and now Miller has reacted with clear frustration for the ongoing drama, with the 31-year-old veteran clearly looking to move past the entire situation.

On Tuesday, Vancouver Canucks President of Hockey Operations Jim Rutherford called out the lack of chemistry the team has had in 2024/25, making it clear that he was referring to the rift between J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson.

When you don't have chemistry, it's hard to be that consistent team because there's too much going on in the same room for everyone to concentrate on what they're supposed to do.

While the fans and media in Vancouver are well aware of the situation, the President making comments on it once again brings it to light as the team looks to get back into the Stanley Cup Playoffs race in 2024/25.

On Wednesday, Miller was asked about his thoughts on what Rutherford had said and about his relationship with Pettersson, and he kept it nice and simple, as it continues to be clear that he's frustrated with the entire situation.

After so many comments from Rutherford, Patrik Allvin, and the media in recent months about Miller and his relationship with Pettersson tearing the team apart, it's no surprise that he's showing clear signs of frustration with continually being asked about this situation.

At the end of the day, it appears to be just a matter of time until Miller is traded, as there's already been one failed attempt by the New York Rangers to make a deal happen, and with Miller showing continued frustration over comments from those in power in Vancouver, it would be in both of their best interests to part ways.
