Undrafted out of Ferris State University, Milam represented the Gladiators at the Par-A-Dice ECHL All Star Game in Peoria Illinois on January 21, 2004 where he tallied a goal and an assist for the Western Conference.

"Troy has worked hard all season long," said Gladiator Head Coach Jeff Pyle, "and this is a great opportunity for him at the next level."
