• Jets' Colin Miller: Staying with Winnipeg

  07/01/2024 • By RotoWire

  Miller signed a two-year, $3 million deal with the Jets on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. Miller was sent from New Jersey to Winnipeg last season and will stick around on a two-year contract. The veteran blueliner was often a healthy scratch after the trade and he dressed in just five regular-season games with the Jets. Winnipeg's blue line is a bit thinner after losing Brenden Dillon, but Miller likely won't see more than a bottom-pair role. Miller has reached the 20-point mark only once in the last five years.

• Jets' Colin Miller: Adds helper in season-ending loss

  05/01/2024 • By RotoWire

  Miller recorded an assist, three shots on goal and five hits in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Avalanche in Game 5. Miller played sparingly after the Jets acquired him from the Devils, though he managed two assists and 17 hits in six appearances for Winnipeg. Miller had nine points, 69 shots on net, 91 hits and a plus-8 rating over 46 regular-season outings between New Jersey and the Jets. He is set to be an unrestricted free agent this summer, and he should be able to find an NHL deal as a possible third-pairing option, though his playing style is rarely friendly to fantasy managers.

• Devils' Colin Miller: Deposits goal

  02/28/2024 • By RotoWire

  Miller scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Sharks. Miller snapped an eight-game point drought with his third-period tally. His goal was the first of four over 5:16 for the Devils as they ran away with the lead. The 31-year-old functioned as the seventh defenseman in the lineup Tuesday and has rarely seen more than a third-pairing role. He's at seven points, 59 shots on net, 71 hits, 31 blocked shots, 24 PIM and a plus-9 rating through 38 appearances this season.

• Devils' Colin Miller: Scratched for Thursday's loss

  02/23/2024 • By RotoWire

  Miller was a healthy scratch for Thursday's 5-1 loss to the Rangers. Miller was out of the lineup for the first time since Jan. 22, as the Devils went with Luke Hughes, John Marino, Jonas Siegenthaler, Simon Nemec, Brendan Smith and Kevin Bahl on defense. The personnel change didn't yield any improvement, as New Jersey continues to be held back by a lackluster power play, which ranks last in the league since the calendar flipped to 2024 and went 0-for-5 in Thursday's loss. Miller's possible return to the lineup won't help on the man advantage, as he has just six points in 35 appearances this season, none of which have come on the power play.

• Devils' Colin Miller: Set to play Thursday

  01/26/2024 • By RotoWire

  Miller (illness) is expected to play Thursday versus the Hurricanes, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports. Miller missed Monday's game versus Vegas with the illness, but that appears to be the extent of his absence. The Devils brought up Daniil Misyul from AHL Utica and claimed Nick DeSimone off waivers from Calgary on Thursday, so Miller's spot in the lineup shouldn't be considered comfortable.
