"This is going to be a really tough challenge," Miller said on a video conference Wednesday, a day before the Canucks were set to return to practice for the first time since a COVID-19 outbreak tore through their locker room. "Even for me, skating a couple of times, my lungs are screaming and not in game-shape at all right now from sitting around and not doing much. "I couldn't imagine what these guys are going to have to go through to get back and be ready to play at a high level." Twenty-two Canucks players and four members of the coaching staff have tested positive for COVID-19 since March 30. The team hasn't played since March 24, with eight games postponed up to April 14.
