Tim Miller finally made his professional debut with the Syracuse Crunch last night and he netted his first goal, too, scoring at 18:24 of the opening period. The Crunch went on to defeat Rochester, 4-2. Miller finished with a goal and +1 rating.
“It’s a good way to go into the summer,” Miller said. “It’s really exciting getting out there, figuring out what the pace is like, trying to get that experience for next year.”
Unfortunately, it was the Crunch’s last game of the season as they will not make the playoffs.
Elsewhere around the AHL last night, Aaron Palushaj scored another goal as Peoria downed Grand Rapids, 5-2.
