From the team’s viewpoint, giving number one goaltender Ryan Miller the night off against the worst team in the league is the right move, because the St. Louis Blues will have big division games coming up this week against Colorado and Chicago.
It would have been fun to see Miller face his former team, where he spent the first 15 years of his career, but on a personal note for Miller, he would have been a mental wreck. Following Wednesday’s practice, Miller looked emotional when talking about meeting up with his former friends.
