Before injuring his hand in mid-December, Aces defenseman and assistant captain Rob Miller was not only a force offensively, scoring 10 points in 11 games, but he was also an outstanding defender and a leader the rest of the team looked up to. Stepping behind the bench over the past three weeks as Assistant Coach, a role he has performed at other levels of his career, Miller, who was the assistant for the New Hampshire Freeze before the team folded, has seen his career come full circle. This time around however, Miller expects to be back on the ice, rather than behind it once he is completely healthy, fortifying the Brooklyn defense and helping them continue their dominant ways.
Discussing his season with Aces Over Brooklyn on Dec. 27, Miller talks about the ups and downs he’s had to go through this season, in addition to how similar his coaching style and playing style are to one another.
