Canucks to have first practice after COVID-19 pause, then play Oilers
- Vancouver is scheduled to play 19 games in 31 days to finish the 56-game regular season.
- "I know that everybody's got a job to do, but to expect pretty much our entire team to be ready to play [with] one practice and a pregame skate is a little bit hard to comprehend.".
- Miller said he did not have COVID-19.
- "This is going to be a really tough challenge," Miller said.
- I couldn't imagine what these guys [who had COVID-19] are going to have to go through to get back and be ready to play at a high level against, you know ...
- Canucks general manager Jim Benning said Friday none of their players had said he didn't want to finish the season.
- "It's been a very strange thing, and we know everybody's trying to do their part, from people in the officials to our organization to the League," Miller said.
- Miller said had the Canucks not had the outbreak, it would be different, but he has not thought about making the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
- I just know that it's going to be tough to jump back into a game against a really good team
