KEVAN MILLER - Defenseman - 31 - $2.50MM Cap Hit- UFA in 2020-2021
LAST UPDATED 1/30/19
An undrafted defenseman from Los Angeles, Miller is an example of a player who bides his time in the minors despite going unnoticed in organizational prospect rankings only to seize a roster spot when injuries force him into NHL action. During the Bruins' Presidents Trophy winning season in 2013-2014, Miller was a surprise contributor to a spectacular Bruins team, ultimately earning himself a full-time role by showcasing his physicality, fighting skill, and crease-clearing ability. Since the 2013-2014 season, Miller has been a consistent contributor for the Bruins. He's not an offensive force, and he lacks the tools to make an impact on that end of the ice, but he works hard every shift and isn't an active liability in the offensive zone, he's just better without the puck on his stick. While durability has been an issue at times, Miller is a perfect #5 who can anchor a bottom pairing with his stay-at-home style and strong leadership.
