Miller records 200th assist on Pettersson's ridiculous tally vs. Jets (02/21/21)
If you're going to collect a milestone assist, you'll want it to come on a goal that's as ridiculous as this one. J.T. Miller recorded his 200th career NHL assist in a game against Winnipeg this past month on a sensational effort by Elias Pettersson. While Pettersson's goal rightfully got all the attention, Miller made a slick little pass on the play to create the opportunity. With the Canucks pressing in the offensive zone, Miller tracked a loose puck in the slot and quickly made a nifty feed to Boeser in the high slot. Boeser's shot was stopped, but Pettersson finished it off with a beautiful no-look, between-the-legs tally to give Miller his 200th assist. We saw Miller's elite passing ability on display throughout February, as the 27-year-old racked up seven helpers in 13 games.
