Just because a date might not be a "blackout date" does not mean that the flights are not booking very full. There are TONS of possibilities - for instance, maybe a college basketball team booked a large group that day. Maybe there is a big convention/conference in Miami. etc. etc. Therefore, sale fares on those specific dates might be limited. Also, Thanksgiving is not far behind and NYC-FL airports is a very busy route, as you know especially from DL.
I saw one $59 flight on JFK-PBI for your dates.
