Thread: Pittsburgh to Vancouver via New Jersey
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tgasp98</b></div><div>Miller plays like a power forward. That puts a lot of stress on the body that will inevitably catch up to him in his 30s in a way that it won't for more finesse players. That is aside from any injuries which will speed along the deterioration in play. Additionally, as the league gets younger and faster, I believe he will start to have a harder time keeping up in year 4 and beyond of that deal.

He will be 30 as a UFA meaning he is probably looking at this as his last chance to cash in. That equates to a long-term deal of 6-7 years which will make him 36/37 at the end. The number that I am seeing thrown out there is anywhere from $8.5-9 million. With everything that I said above, I have a hard time predicting he is anywhere near an $8.5 million player in the later half of that deal.

Maybe the cap explodes in the next 4 years and 8.5 million seems like nothing. Or, there is a chance his body does hold up over 5-6 years and he doesn't slow down during that time. I hope that is the case but I don't want NJ making that bet, especially for significant assets because it will most likely end up like the Seguin situation.</div></div>

Yeah, I understand being apprehensive of making such a bet, but on the ice, Miller plays nothing like Barclay Goodrow or Blake Coleman. He doesn't throw the body to anywhere near the same extent as those two guys do
