Atlanta Gladiators News Release


The Gwinnett Gladiators announced today that forward Tim Miller has been recalled by the team's American Hockey League affiliate Syracuse Crunch. Miller originally signed an AHL contract with the Crunch in early October of last year and was assigned to the Gladiators for the start of the season. After skating in four contests with Gwinnett, Miller returned to the Crunch for 12 games from late October through mid-December before being reassigned to the Gladiators. This marks his second trip to the AHL this season.

Miller, a 23-year-old Davisburg, Michigan native, appeared in 44 games with the Gladiators this season, posting 15 goals and 20 assists for 35 points while adding 103 penalty minutes. He leaves the team in the midst of a career-high 10-game point streak in which he tallied four goals and nine assists. He has two goals, one assist and 11 penalty minutes in 13 total AHL games during the past two seasons.

Following his senior season at the University of Michigan last year, Miller made his pro debut in one game with the Crunch, where he scored his first professional goal. While at Michigan, the forward recorded 77 points on 25 goals and 52 assists in 166 total games and was named the CCHA's 2008-09 best defensive forward following his final season with the Wolverines.

Prior to skating at Michigan, Miller played two junior seasons with the Omaha franchise of the United States Hockey League from 2003 to 2005, registering 55 points and 223 penalty minutes in 117 total outings.

The Gladiators continue their 7th season in the ECHL on Saturday, March 20th vs. Trenton at 7:05 p.m. The Gladiators are the AA affiliate of the Atlanta Thrashers and Columbus Blue Jackets and play all home games at the 11,355-seat Arena at Gwinnett Center, located just off I-85 on Sugarloaf Parkway in Duluth.
