Ryan Miller was leaving the bench for an extra skater as the Canucks were down by two goals late on Thursday against the Red Wings. Miller reversed course as Henrik Zetterberg quickly bore down on the wide open net. What happened next resides on the border of ridiculous and sublime:
I can’t tell if Miller robbed Henrik Zetterberg of an empty netter or Miguel Cabrera of a base hit up the middle. Unfortunately for Miller, the Canucks still lost, but this is going to be on your highlight reels for some time to come.
Perhaps a Major League team will see this and give him a spring training invite to play second base. Hey, if Tim Tebow can play baseball, anything is possible.
