However, Avery is now calling out Miller who is in the second year of his two-year $7.74 million contract. Here's what Avery had to say about Miller:

«Watch 79 white, K'Andre Miller,» Avery said. «Soft as a baby's (expletive), look at his play patty cakes right here. No finish and then he gets beat to the net. Watch him get beat to the net for a goal. Boom. Look at K'Andre Miller, 79 just fishing for pucks, he's a fisherman, get him a fisherman's license, just fishing, 79. 79 getting beat to the net, a fishing expedition.»

Avery was definitely not happy with the way Miller was playing during that game against the Washington Capitals, as he felt Miller didn't give enough effort, and needs to be more physical to stop players from getting to net so easily.
