Miller announced that he will retire at the end of the 2021 season.

Miller goes out as a one-time Vezina Trophy winner and the winningest American-born netminder in NHL history with 284 wins. During his 18-year career, Miller played for the Sabres, Ducks, Canucks and Blues, posting a 2.63 GAA and .914 SV% across 641 starts and 794 total appearances.

Miller will start Wednesday vs. the Wild.

Miller will make his season debut on the heels of an impressive shutout by John Gibson on Monday. The 40-year-old netminder has 780 career games under his belt but is coming off of a season where he had a 3.10 GAA and .907 SV% in 23 appearances. As desperate as you may be, I would look elsewhere tonight.

The Ducks signed Ryan Miller to a one-year deal worth $1.0 million.

Miller posted to Twitter that he "tried out retirement for [nine] months (thanks COVID) Decided I wasn’t feeling it." The veteran returns for his fourth season with the Ducks and will serve as the primary backup to John Gibson with Antony Stolarz as the No.3 option. Miller started 19 games a season ago, going 9-6-4 with a 3.10 GAA and .908, both among the worst of his career.

Miller led the Ducks onto the ice for warmups.

Miller allowed five goals on 30 shots in the Ducks overtime loss to the Wild on Sunday. It definitely wasn't Miller's best and he's now 2-2-3 with a 3.18 GAA and .898 SV% on home ice this season. Tonight he'll see a Senators team that is 1-4-2 while averaging just 1.86 goals per game in their last seven road games.
