The Milan Lucic criticism has been pouring in for days, with one of the latest haters being Ryan Miller‘s own brother, Drew, who plays for the Detroit Red Wings.
Ryan’s baby bro said that his elder netminding sibling is still “pretty rattled” over the mishap, according to Fox Sports.
“[Ryan is] pretty rattled about it,” Drew said. “Just that someone would actually do that and he’s upset that he’s got a concussion.
“It’s unfortunate. You watch that happen a lot, a guy racing for the puck like that and you see the goalie slides and the guy flies over him like different highlights in the past like that,” Drew Miller added. “He actually ran right through him. He’s a pretty big guy so it’s a pretty dirty play.”
It shouldn’t come as a shock that Ryan’s brother is sticking up for him and calling the hit dirty. But thanks to some research done by the folks at Days of Y’Orr, Miller’s proven to be a goalie-popper well before Lucic’s unavoidable collision with Ryan, as seen below.
