NFT: Ranger Fans: Don't look now...but K'Andre Miller is rolling

redbeard : 12/12/2018 11:21 am
It's looking like the blueshirts may have found a good one at the end of the 1st round. In his freshman season, K'Andre Miller is leading all skaters on his squad in points (17 in 18 games played). We knew he had the raw athletic ability and size to be an NHL player but he's showing that he may have the hockey sense to be even more.

Haven't been able to get to a Badger game since moving to Madison in the summer but hoping to catch a few in person this season to see the kid in action.

Got ourselves a player...
the scouting reports on him were very enticing

Basically that he has elite athleticism and skills, just needed more development time because he just recently switched to defense.

Loved that pick and am really excited about him.

Also - where the fuck have you been, beard? Feels like you haven't been around lately. Quieter season for us I suppose.... I think we're still working off the game thread from the last game against the Isles like 3 weeks ago... so there hasn't been as much discussion.
Shattenkirk's going to be sidelined for possibly a month

Shoulder injury from the hit Miller put on him?
He has more points than Wahlstrom and Farabee :)

Fuck the Islanders and fuck the Flyers

New job, new city and long hours. I’d prefer handing out face washes and harassing fishstuck floozies but time to watch the boys and post on BBI has been hard to come by

Well, it's good to see you around bud. Congrats on the new gig!
Nice to hear

but a bit early to get excited. After all, people were drooling over Vesey because of what he did in college. He seems to be getting better, but doesn't anywhere like the scorer he was in college.

I can't remember the 3rd guy, but he has as many points as those two and another Flyers' prospect (O'Brien?) combined. All taken above him.

Vesey was a lot older as far as I remember and didn't have even close to the measurables of Miller. Just because one guy in college didn't work out (and he's had a good season) doesn't mean no one should ever get excited about another guy.
Vesey was always an overachieving type  
Greg from LI : 12/12/2018 9:13 pm : link
Miller,on the other hand, was considered a great athlete who had a lot to lean about playing defense. A high risk/high ceiling type.
Madison is awesome

loved my years there.

Career of my fav Ranger of all time (Barry Beck) was ended by a shoulder separation... a really tough injury
