- Former Canucks Forward Gives Insight Into 2024 Locker Room Issues
Former Vancouver Canucks forward J.T. Miller has shed a little light on some of the events that occurred during the 2024-25 season.
In a video released today by Spittin' Chiclets , an exchange between Miller and Paul Bissonnette while golfing shows the ex-Canuck reacting to a jab about the end of his time with Vancouver; specifically the widely reported "rift" between himself and Elias Pettersson.

In the clip, Miller mentions that he "went to rehab," saying this after Bissonnette made a comment about Pettersson.
Notably, Miller took a leave of absence after a 5-3 loss to the Nashville Predators on November 17 and did not return to the ice until December 12 against the Florida Panthers . In the months that followed, the rift between Miller and Pettersson garnered more and more public attention.
Things cooled once Miller was traded to the New York Rangers on January 31, 2025, though little pieces of information on this point in time in Canucks history have since emerged.
While this was undoubtedly a notable point in recent Canucks history, Vancouver is now entering a different era with only a handful of players from their 2024-25 team still in the organization. The team will be looking to move past this point in time and work towards establishing a brighter future.
