What It Means:

Miller got the night off on Tuesday after allowing four goals on 25 shots in Sunday's loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets. Hopefully, the brief respite did him some good, as the veteran netminder gets to try and bounce back with a home start versus the 27th-ranked road offense in the NHL. The Jets are scoring only 2.06 goals per game away from home.

Our models have Miller as the seventh-best goalie option in Thursday's 10-game slate, with projections of 2.4 goals allowed, 25.5 saves and a 57.0 percent chance of earning the win.
