Nashville Predators vs. Colorado Avalanche - News - January 16, 2026 | FOX Sports

Trent Miner - Logs shutout in AHL play Miner notched a 35-save shutout in AHL Colorado's 3-0 win over Henderson on Saturday.

Impact This was Miner's first shutout in 12 appearances at the AHL level this season. Due to various injuries to the Avalanche's goalies, he's spent a lot of time in the backup role in the NHL. He's 8-2-1 with a 2.22 GAA and a .919 save percentage in the AHL, so he's more than capable to handle the responsibility of being Colorado's organizational No. 3 goalie.
