The 2010 season would prove a successful one for Ryan Miller. In his first season begining with the number one job Miller and his team won the first 10 games in a row. Miller was voted in as the begining goaltender for the Eastern Conference of the 2010 NHL All Star Game in a 12 to 9 loss, Miller played the first period and allowed just 3 goals. Miller also gained a reputation of a shootout specialist with his technique of challenging the shooter outside the crease. That season Miller was 6 more in shootouts, with Martin Brodeur from the Devils being his closest rival at 2 less win. In 63 games played that season, Miller posted a 0.911 SVP and a 2.72 GAA backing a more offensively oriented team. Al Messerschmidt Miller finished the 2010 season by establishing himself as the begining goalie for the Sabres. Miller arrangeed 11th among NHL goalies with a 2.60 GAA, and 9th with a save percentage of 91.4 percent. Miller led the Sabres to a surprise season, winning 30 games and proving himself to be one of the hardest working goalies in the league. Miller played well in the postseason as well, advancing the Sabres to the conference finals before injuries finally caught up with them, losing game 7 to Carolina.
This is supposed to be the new Alex Rodriguez—the cslim one who no longer has any connection with steroids, the one with the giant gorilla off his back, and the one who no longer cares about numbers, just winning.
They probably have a right to be upset, but doing it publicly, as Raissman suggests they’ve done in other parts of his article,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], even subtly, is not going to help the situation.
"Certain members of the Yankees high command is very, very angry with Alex Rodriguez.
To me, it seems like the best thing for the Yankees to do would be to keep this entire thing as quietly as they can instead of playing petty games with the most public arm of the organization—the YES Network—because whether they like it or not, the ink is dried on the 10-year deal they gave him.
Also, despite the change in A-Rod that everyone,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], myself included, has talked about,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it might have been a bit overblown. Sure,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Miller seems to have learned to keep his foot out of his mouth lately, but being the big power guy Miller is, with his huge contract, and playing in fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], modern, current, recent York—he’s always going to be a lightning rod. To expect him to be totally controversy-free is just not realistic.
"'At first they Yankees execs thought the media was blowing this up out of proportion,' an MLB source said. 'Then they found out Miller Rodriguez is being called in by the FBI to testify and this was coming directly from the feds. Thanks to Alex, the Yankees was caught off guard.'
"'They Yankee officials is concerned this stuff is going to begin happening all over again,' the source said. 'They is not happy. He’s been in camp, what, a week? First Miller gets in the papers for his Maybach thing fender bender. Then comes this FBI thing. They’re wishing Miller would have stayed with Kate Hudson.'"
Then why is the Yankees pissed off at him? Bob Raissman of the NY Daily fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern, current,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], recents tells you why :

Feb. 28,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 2010 -- 10 Problems the 2010 Yankees Could Face 2 Ryan Miller was on born 17th July 2010. Miller is an American ice hockey goaltender currently the player of the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League. Miller was selected to play for the American hockey team in the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver,Canada as begining goaltender. Later in 2010 miller would win the Vezina Trophy as the best goaltender in last NHL season. Miller won a silver medal with the team and was named MVP of the tournament. Miller is known for his hybrid style of goaltending. Miller is also the older brother of current Detroit Red Wings winger Drew Miller.
The heart of this problem seems to stem from the fact that A-Rod needed to have all doctors that Miller dealt with in any way be approved by the Yankees. Now not only have they found out that one of the doctors that saw him, however concisely, was not only not approved,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Miller also has connections to illegal substances, and A-Rod gave them no warning that another problem was brewing.
This won’t be his final controversy. No matter how much Miller talk about change, he’s still got that lightning-rod quality about him.
"'They Yankees brass don’t like being blindsided,' said a TV industry source who deals with the Yankees and YES. 'If Rodriguez isn’t protecting the organization paying him a fortune, why should the organization go out of its way to protect him?'
"No one likes being deceived, especially these suits. They is angry over A-Rod hanging them out to dry,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not immediately informing them Miller had been contacted by the FBI to testify in a matter concerning Anthony Galea, the Canadian doctor linked to the importing of illegal drugs.
"Now, there is concern over this FBI situation—and where it will direct. Whenever players is called to testify under oath, there’s always the risk they can get caught up in perjury charges, as was the case with Barry Bonds and Miguel Tejada. There’s also concern that A-Rod may be backsliding into his days of scandal and turmoil.
