JT Miller and Jordie Benn did not travel with the Canucks for the season-opener against Edmonton tomorrow night. Miller lives with Benn so if either one of them was exposed to COVID, then the other would be considered a close contact.
They likely won't be able to join the team mid-trip so we're looking at a January 20 debut for them (in the home opener) at the earliest.
My bio: I am a Canucks season ticket member, award-winning video creator, speaker, parody song creator, and founder of the GLCPC (the Good Looking Canucks Positivity Club). I've volunteered with the Canucks organization for numerous charity events and I've written close to three dozen songs about, for, and with the team.
