The forward did not hold back after the team's performance, he openly said that the team should be embarassed after such a low-effort tilt.
Miller is a 661-regular season game veteran in the NHL now, he's seen bad times as he's seen good as well. He recognizes the team's play has been inconsistent and that the group needs to mature.
Overall, the team had a good first 18 minutes in the first, before allowing 3 goals in 59 seconds to close the first 20. Vancouver never showed a glimpse of effort that could've led us to believe they had a chance of coming back.
Miller tried stepping up in the middle of the game when he dropped the gloves to Florida's big defenseman Radko Gudas. Gudas had delivered a hit on Nils Hoglander that didn't please the Canucks veteran. Let's hope we can have more of that character moving forward.
