Can a Goalie Be a Superstar?

Ryan Miller May Be the Best American on Skates, But His Position Demands Humility

By MATTHEW FUTTERMAN (http://billszone.com/search/search_center.html?KEYWORDS=MATTHEW+FUTTERMAN&ARTICLESEARCHQUERY_PARSER=bylineAND)

Ryan Miller was the most valuable player at the Olympic tournament, where he won a silver medal for Team USA. He's one of the best hockey players America has ever produced. He's making $6.25 million this year for the NHL's Buffalo Sabres. His team is in first place. He's dating an actress. And if you asked him, he'd probably be happier if we shut up right now.



"What can I say?" Mr. Miller said during an interview on a press tour Monday, where he said all the attention has been a bit surreal. "I'm from the Midwest, and everything was always about keeping a low profile."

It's a nice half-page article with a huge color picture of Miller.

I like all the attention he is getting but I find it funny sometimes seeing that he has been mine and probably a bunch of others favorite Sabre for half a decade.

If the Sabres wanted, I'm willing to bet they could really cash in on this during the Summer.

You got a point. Everyone is starting to show him love right now, but he's been one of the more popular Sabres players for years. He was one of my first Sabres jerseys I have owned.
