Miller, Benn unavailable for Canucks ahead of season opener

Vancouver Canucks forward J.T. Miller and defenseman Jordie Benn aren't available to the club, general manager Jim Benning said Tuesday, according to Sportsnet 650.

The Canucks are following the NHL's safety protocols and will have more information on both players Wednesday, Benning added.

Miller, 27, led the Canucks with 72 points last season. Benn, 33, is a key cog on the team's blue line.

Both players are currently in Vancouver while the team is in Edmonton for Wednesday's season opener against the Oilers.
