Miller was born in Lansing, Michigan. As a youth, he played in the 1978 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with the Detroit Little Caesars minor ice hockey team.[1]
A two-way forward, Miller was drafted by the New York Rangers in 1984.[citation needed] He would also go on to play with the Detroit Red Wings, Washington Capitals, St. Louis Blues, San Jose Sharks, Pittsburgh Penguins, Chicago Blackhawks, New York Islanders and Ottawa Senators.[citation needed]
After playing for the Senators during the 1999–2000 NHL season, Miller spent several years in Switzerland before returning to play in North America and would play several games for the Red Wings in 2003–04.[citation needed] Miller retired from active professional play in 2005.[citation needed]
Andrew McKim incident
On June 5, 2014, U.S. District Judge Gordon Jay Quist ruled against Miller for a hit from behind during an October 31, 2000, Swiss league game that ended Andrew McKim's career. After the collision, McKim was hospitalized for weeks with a concussion and a sprain of the cervical spine and never returned to the ice.[2] Miller was charged and convicted of simple bodily harm, intentional bodily harm and gross negligence in Switzerland's Canton of Zürich in 2004. The insurance company asked the U.S. court to recognize a Swiss court's $1.1 million judgement against Miller, which increased to $1.6 million with interest and costs. Miller previously refused to pay the Swiss court's judgment, however Judge Gordon Quist said in its ruling that his court was adhering to the Uniform Foreign-Country Judgments Recognition Act, and ordered Miller to pay the $1.6 million judgement.[3]
He is one of the three Miller brothers, along with Kelly and Kip, who played in the NHL. He is also a cousin of former NHL goaltender Ryan Miller and Ryan's brother Drew Miller who also played in the NHL. He is the father of figure skater Hannah Miller.[4]
