Trent Miner - NHL News & Rumors

Heads to minors Miner was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Wednesday.

Impact Miner has a 1-0-3 record, 2.03 GAA and .923 save percentage in four appearances with the Avalanche in 2025-26. His reassignment might be a sign that Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body) is close to returning, but the Avalanche are off until Friday's home game against Nashville, so they have plenty of time to recall a goaltender before their next game.

Allowed four goals to Leafs Miner gave up four goals on 31 shots (.871 save percentage) in a 4-3 loss to Toronto on Monday.

Impact Miner was given the second consecutive start after having blanked the Blue Jackets on Saturday but wasn't nearly as sharp. Once Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body) returns to the lineup, the 24-year-old Miner will be headed back to AHL Colorado, where he figures to spend the rest of the 2025-26 campaign, barring additional injury concerns.

Slated to start Monday Miner is expected to patrol the crease at home versus the Maple Leafs on Monday, Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports reports.

Impact Miner is coming off a 29-save, shutout performance against the Blue Jackets on Saturday, so it seems the team will go with the hot hand heading into Monday's clash. Despite his decent performances, Miner will almost certainly be shipped down to the minors once Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body) is cleared to return.

Blanks Jackets for first shutout Miner made 29 saves in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Called back up from AHL Colorado on Friday to fill in for Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body), Miner was put to work right away and recorded his first NHL shutout in his fifth career outing at the top level. Scott Wedgewood should see the bulk of the action while Blackwood is sidelined, but Miner's performance could earn him more work than anticipated. Through 10 AHL appearances this season, Miner's gone 7-2-0 with a 2.40 GAA and .907 save percentage.

Called up Friday Miner was recalled from AHL Colorado on Friday.

Impact Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body) landed on injured reserve due to a lower-body injury in a corresponding move. Miner has gone 0-0-2 with four goals allowed on 44 shots over two NHL appearances this season. With the Eagles, he has a 7-2-0 record, a 2.40 GAA and a .907 save percentage across 10 appearances.

Impact Miner was up just serving as insurance for an injury to normal starter Mackenzie Blackwood. He will return to the AHL now with the usual backup, Scott Wedgewood (back), healthy again. With AHL Colorado, the 24-year-old Miner is 4-1-0 with a 2.16 GAA and a .908 save percentage.

Promoted from minors Miner was recalled from AHL Colorado on Wednesday.

Impact Miner's elevation to the NHL roster comes as Scott Wedgewood is currently dealing with a back injury. If needed, Miner figures to serve as the No. 2 option behind Mackenzie Blackwood against the Islanders on Thursday. Depending on how long Wedgewood is out, Miner could see action during an upcoming back-to-back versus the Rangers and Flyers on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.

Goes on waivers Miner was put on waivers Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact While filling in as Scott Wedgewood's backup to begin the 2025-26 NHL season, Miner posted a record of 0-0-2 while surrendering four goals on 44 shots in two appearances. The Avalanche will have Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body) back in the lineup in Tuesday's home matchup versus New Jersey, so the 24-year-old Miner will report to AHL Colorado if he clears waivers.

Inefficient in defeat Miner stopped 20 of the 24 shots he faced during Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Devils.

Impact All things considered, the 24-year-old did alright being thrown to the wolves in his first NHL start this season. It didn't begin great for Miner, who allowed two goals in the first 10 minutes of the game, but he did enough to get the Avalanche to overtime and earn a point against the league-leading Devils. It remains to be seen whether or not the young netminder will get another start before Mackenzie Blackwood returns from injury.

Perfect in relief until shootout Miner stopped all 20 shots he faced in relief of Scott Wedgewood in Thursday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Miner came in during the first period after Wedgewood gave up four goals on 11 shots. This was a strong performance for Miner, but he took a shootout loss when Seth Jarvis tallied the lone goal for the Hurricanes in the skills competition. Miner is winless over his three NHL appearances, and his time with the big club could be nearing a close, as Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body) seems to be close to returning to action.
