Miller has been with Grand Rapids for one month and recorded two goals and one assist (three points) in seven games. The Red Wings traded Tomas Jurco during their bye week, so Miller has been called-up to take the final roster spot. He had five goals and one assist (six points) in 35 games with the Red Wings.

Miller cleared waivers last week, but stayed with the team because Dylan Larkin got hurt, but with Larkin returning to the lineup tonight, Miller heads to Grand Rapids.

Miller was a healthy scratch for the last two games with Darren Helm back in the lineup. Miller has five goals and one assist in 34 games this season and could be called back up for Tuesday’s game with both Thomas Vanek (lower-body) and Dylan Larkin (upper-body) out.

Miller appeared in just 28 games in the 2015-16 season because of a knee injury. Miller underwent ACL and meniscus reconstruction surgery in January, but is expected to be ready for the 2016-17 season.

Miller was placed on long-term IR on January 11th but it was announced on Tuesday that he will be out for the next 4-6 months after undergoing knee surgery. Miller is a pending unrestricted free agent, so this could spell the end of his career with the Red Wings.

Miller, who missed an extended period of time with a broken jaw, returned for just two games before landing on LTIR with a lower-body injury.

Miller suffered a lower-body injury in Sunday’s win in Anaheim and will be out of the lineup on Monday. With Miller out, Joakim Andersson will be in the lineup. Miller could miss an extended period of time, but the severity of his injury has not been determined.


Miller has missed the last 14 games with a broken jaw, but was activated from IR on Tuesday and should be in the lineup on Thursday. With Miller back, the Red Wings had to send Tomas Nosek back to Grand Rapids. Miller has one goal and one assist in 26 games this season.

Miller suffered a broken jaw after being hit in the head by Coyotes defenseman Klas Dahlbeck. Miller will be out until mid-January which means he will likely go on IR and the Red Wings should recall a forward. Joakim Andersson is expected to draw into the lineup for Miller on Saturday.

Miller left Tuesday’s game after he has his face cut by a skate. He had around 60 stitches to close the cut but luckily didn’t suffer any damage to his eye. He will be in the lineup tonight despite the gruesome looking cut.

Miller was injured after a faceoff, when Mark Stone fell forward and his right leg swung up just as Miller stepped forward. Miller was cut on his right cheek by the skate blade, immediately signaling to his bench that he needed to come off. Miller suffered two lacerations around his right eye, but the team announced there was no damage to the eye itself. He is questionable for Thursday’s game.

Said he's out 4-6 weeks, best case scenario he'd be back late 2nd round.


Miller hasn't scored in seven games. He has just seven points in 39 games.

With Nyquist moved up, Miller is chosen to move down. The two-way winger has 14 goals and 25 points through 76 games.

Miller moves up to the second line. He has 12 goals and 23 points in 65 games.

Miller gets a crack at the second line after centering the fourth for most of the season. He has three goals and seven points in 27 games.

Eaves and Holmstrom are the only members of this four-five man fourth line with any fantasy hockey significance. Without consistent playing time, none of them should be added in standard mixed leagues.
