Miller (lower body) is closer to day-to-day than having a long-term issue, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports Saturday.

Miller will be out for a straight game against Dallas on Saturday, but Saturday's update is still encouraging. He has averaged 23:32 of ice time across six appearances this year. Carolina needs more than one blueliner to step up to fill that void, especially with Jaccob Slavin (lower body) unavailable as well. Joel Nystrom logged 16:02 of ice time versus the Avalanche in Thursday's 5-4 shootout win due to Miller's absence.
