Miller was missing from Monday's practice and is listed as day-to-day according to head coach David Quinn. Quinn also said "we'll see tomorrow," so there seems like there's at least a sliver of hope that Miller won't miss Tuesday's contest vs. the Devils.
Miller was the No.22 overall pic in 2018 and wrapped up his second season at the University of Wisconsin with 18 points (7G / 11A) in 36 games. He started the college season on team suspension, which the Wisconsin State Journal reported was because of academic woes, and he had a disappointing showing in the World Junior Championships, where he had two assists in five games. He'll likely report to Hartford (AHL) if the NHL season resumes or for the start of the 2021 season.
