This great news for not only USA Hockey and American fans, but also the Vancouver Canucks and their fan base.
It's still unclear when J.T. Miller will return to the club, but it's good to hear that if he's available for the 4 Nations Face-Off, that he'll be back before the first game in mid-Febuary.
Miller, 31, has represented the United States on handful of occasions including two World Junior Championships, but if he's named to the 4 Nations Face-Off roster, it'll be his debut at the men's level.
The 4 Nations Face-Off is set to get underway on February 12th with Canada taking on Sweden at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec.
