I could maybe see Miller  moved as a depth D man on a team looking to make a deep playoff run.

You can't pile up enough D-men heading into the playoffs, especially if you think your'e going to go deep.

 

 

You do need a lot of D if you are going to go deep.  That's true.

Miller should be bottom pair and on PP2 on a good team, maybe PP1 as a stretch. We asked him to do more than that.

On that PP you want to feed him pucks to get that bomb of a shot off. That isn't how our PP has functioned. It flows through 3 or 4 other guys and they don't usually have 2 point players anyway.

Miller to me is a poster child for why good analytics don’t always mean good player.

Used in the Jason Woolley role on a good Vegas team he had fantastic fancy stats. Here, different story.

Seems to me Montour had great fancystats too prior to his last year in Anaheim.

As a big fan of woolley I feel like I should be angry by the comparison.... but I am not sure.

We here on Sabrespace clamored for Montour for 2 seasons.  Then we got him.  I think you’re probably correct.

Most definitely. I'm a strong believer in analytics as a tool and in using them to try to hit on good players. It doesn't mean they are always correct though and they need context applied to be used effectively.
