Kevan Miller went un-drafted but was picked up by the Boston Bruins’ AHL affilate, the Providence Bruins on an amateur try-out contract out of college. The former captain of the University of Vermont team made his AHL debut at the tail of the 2010-11 season and has remained within the Bruins organisation ever since.
He now finds himself having dealt with the worst possible year for injuries and on a $2.5 million contract as a player that isn’t realistically within the top-four of his position on the NHL roster. This makes him the ideal candidate to trade or buyout in the eyes of most Boston Bruins fans.
