Just a few days ago, Team USA defeated Team Canada in one of it's greatest Olympic Winter hockey game upsets since the 1980 "Miracle on Ice." And a huge factor in that win was goaltender, Ryan Miller. Just yesterday, Miller shined in a another USA win over Team Switzerland with a perfect game of 19 saves in 19 shots. Not only is he the #1 goalie for the Olympic team, but he's also been one of the best goaltenders in the NHL thus far this season, for the Buffalo Sabres. For now, Miller and Team USA are one win away from the gold medal game. And America couldn't be more excited.
It's more
than just his goaltending skills that has made Miller a popular US Olympian. He shows his patriotism and does so in style. After all, if you look good you play well, right? Miller
thinks so. He specially designed a totally cool face mask to include a
muscular Uncle Sam along with Olympics logos and patriotic sayings. Unfortunately,
the IOC decided to play fashion police and Miller was told to
remove some of those phrases, including the “Miller Time” logo on the back of
his mask.
But the man behind this mask is lending his style sense to his fellow Americans in other ways. Miller owns a clothing store in East Lansing, Michigan called The Refinery. The Refinery was started by Miller in 2007 and is a world-class clothing retailer with an amazing selection of denim. Miller has said that it's difficult to find the right clothing for a hockey player's build and his store caters to both those athletes and their wives. Seems like he's got the looking good thing covered both on and off the ice.
Ryan Miller is Who's Haute.
