Canucks' Ryan Miller: Defending crease against Oilers

Miller will tend the twine Wednesday against Edmonton, Irfaan Gaffar of Sportsnet reports.

Analysis:

Miller will likely begin the season as the starter, but will have Jacob Markstrom looking over his shoulder and could be given the hook if he falters early in the year. The 2015-16 campaign was one of the worst of the netminder's career, as he posted a 17-24-9 record with a 2.70 GAA. Fantasy owners will be hoping that Miller can return to the player he was in Buffalo, but at 36 year's old, that level of performance may no longer be within reach.
