The Blackhawks released Miller from his professional tryout agreement Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The Blackhawks evidently didn't see enough from Miller through the first week of camp to warrant keeping him around for their second preseason game Thursday against the Red Wings, so the 33-year-old winger will now hope to get another look from a different NHL club seeking veteran depth up front. However, at this stage, it looks like Miller may need to head overseas to continue his career.

Miller penned a professional tryout agreement with the Blackhawks on Monday, Mark Lazerus of the Chicago Sun Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Over the past two seasons, Miller logged just 83 contests for the Red Wings -- along with registering six goals and three helpers. Given his limited offensive production, if the veteran secures a permanent deal, it will likely be as a penalty-kill specialist.

Miller (illness) is projected to be in Saturday's lineup versus the Canadiens, NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is good timing since fellow left wing Andreas Athanasiou reportedly will miss the contest due to an undisclosed ailment. However, Miller has been stuck in a bottom-six role where goals are hard to come by.

Miller (illness) will miss his second consecutive game against the Senators on Tuesday night, per Ansar Khan of MLive.com.
EDGE Analysis
The bottom-six forward will now have until Saturday to prepare for the next game. Even when healthy, he's not a viable option in most fantasy settings.

Miller will not be available for Monday night's home game against the Senators due to flu-like symptoms.
EDGE Analysis
Miller's illness will afford top prospect Evgeni Svechnikov -- freshly called up from AHL Grand Rapids -- the chance to make his NHL debut.

Miller was called up to the NHL on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Miller was likely called up to provide some depth to a Detroit team that has been consistently banged up all season. He's a physical veteran, but when it comes to fantasy, his six points in 35 games doesn't turn any heads.

Miller was reassigned to the minors Tuesday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Red Wings needed to clear a roster spot for burner Dylan Larkin -- he's set to return from an upper-body injury -- so naturally, it makes sense to demote a player like Miller, who had been waived about a week before the All-Star break, but ultimately was retained since he passed through the wire untouched. He's a physical being, but there's nothing to get excited about regarding Miller from a fantasy perspective.

Miller was recalled from AHL Grand Rapids on Tuesday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's been quite the whirlwind for Miller. In this week alone, he's been waived -- only to clear -- assigned to the minors, and now heading back up to the parent club for the Red Wings. Injuries to Steve Ott (shoulder) Dylan Larkin (upper body) necessitated his full-circle movement around the organization. Needless to say, fantasy owners shouldn't concern themselves with this messy situation.

Miller was reassigned to AHL Grand Rapids on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Miller has officially cleared waivers, but the placement of Dylan Larkin (upper body) on injured reserve will reportedly result in him being recalled yet again. That move isn't official yet, but it's quite possible Miller will draw back into the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Bruins.

Miller was waived by the Red Wings on Sunday, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Miller's ice time has trended downward of late, culminating in him being a healthy scratch Friday against the Sabres. With Niklas Kronwall (groin) back in the lineup Sunday, the team will open up a roster spot by waiving Miller. Assuming he passes through waivers unclaimed, the winger will likely be sent to AHL Grand Rapids.
