I'm all in on Miller. His lack of experience as a d-man is a positive imo, more room for growth.
But I must say that while his straight ahead skating looks good, his footwork skating backwards does not. Def a spot where his lack of experience at D is apparent. I felt the similar with Gelinas in that yes, skating in open ice he looked great, but when it was time to work the corners he was falling all over the place. There are different aspects to skating and I think the brush can be used too broadly.
Still, Miller is my #1 choice.
