Milic will defend the road net in Saturday's preseason game against Edmonton, according to Jamie Thomas of the Jets' official site.
Milic registered a 20-13-6 record with a 2.64 GAA and a .905 save percentage in 41 appearances for AHL Manitoba in the 2025-26 regular season. With Connor Hellebuyck suspended and awaiting a resolution to his trade request, the 23-year-old Milic will compete in camp to begin the 2026-27 campaign as Stuart Skinner's backup.
