Canucks F J.T. Miller (personal reasons) takes leave of absence

J.T. Miller

Vancouver Canucks forward J.T. Miller is taking an indefinite leave of absence for undisclosed personal reasons, general manager Patrik Allvin announced Tuesday.

“Right now, our sole focus is making sure that J.T. knows the entire organization is here to support him,” Allvin said in a statement. “Out of respect to J.T., we will have no further comment at this time.”

Miller, 31, shares the team in goals (six) with three other players. His totals in assists (10) and points (16) trail only star defenseman Quinn Hughes (15, 18).

Miller logged only 11 minutes, 41 seconds of ice time in the Canucks’ 5-3 loss against the Nashville Predators on Sunday. He has averaged nearly 18 1/2 minutes of ice time per game this season.

Miller has totaled 655 points (244 goals, 411 assists) and a plus-68 rating in 816 career games with the New York Rangers, Tampa Bay Lightning and Canucks. He was selected by the Rangers with the 15th overall pick of the 2011 NHL Draft.
