His tenure with the Coyotes was short-lived due to revelations about his past, including bullying a developmentally disabled schoolmate and making racist comments. <h2>Embarrassing Mistake From the Bruins</h2> In November 2022, the Boston Bruins took a chance on Miller, offering him a three-year, entry-level contract, but swiftly terminated it amid public outcry, though Miller received financial compensation. Ak Bars Kazan's decision to sign Miller aligns with the KHL's history of recruiting players with contentious pasts, such as Alex Galchenyuk, Reid Boucher, and Brendan Leipsic.
