His highlights include the 2006 Winter Olympics the NHL All-Star Game, Memorial Cup, World Junior Hockey Championship the 2009, 2010 and 2011 Stanley Cup Finals[1] In 2010 Miller was accused of taking the game-winning puck from the Chicago Blackhawks after they won the Stanley Cup. He was held out of the first round of 2011 playoffs to avoid distractions following an ESPN.com story on the subject, but was re-added to the rotation of officials for the second round.[2]
