Miller is a case study in the different ways a diminutive player can play. Offensively, his game isn?t built upon possessing the puck and making individual plays. It?s built like we maybe expect from bigger, stronger players: off the puck, finding space, playing in give-and-gos rather than carries, and getting open.
In some ways, it pays to be small and play that style of game, too.
In Miller?s case, it allows him to slide to the backdoor and hide in coverage easier than most. The result is a lot of tap-in goals.
). I have no particular reason why, as his numbers are... just okay?
