On Friday, Miller's contract was formalized and registered with the NHL. This in turn made Miller both a member of the NHL and the NHLPA. At the time of the signing and registration the NHL had no qualms with the signing, allowing the deal to process without issue.
Now multiple reports have surfaced contradicting what Neely has stated.
Yesterday many expected the Bruins to place Miller on waivers at 2 pm, but that was not the case. The only two players placed on waivers were forward Rem Pitlick and goaltender Dylan Wells.
So as of this writing it appears that Miller is still a member of the Boston Bruins, that is unless the NHL has found some loophole that would allow the team to terminate the deal without penalty. This is a situation that is already messy enough without these additional details. It will be interesting to see if the Bruins place Miller on waivers today or if they will choose to go another route.
