					The Boston Bruins made major headlines today, and not entirely for the right reasons.
General manager Don Sweeney announced the club signed Mitchell Miller to an entry-level deal which has come with a lot of controversy from around the hockey world.
Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal and NHL.com spoke to Miller as he arrived in Providence of the AHL earlier today.
His answer, as per DIvver:
''I think it's a huge opportunity for me and the Bruins. Personally, I'm here to better myself off the ice with community stuff, diversity training and being in the community more.''
''The Bruins have offered a lot for me to follow my path. I think I'll be able to help them on and off the ice.''
Miller noted that other NHL teams were interested and why he chose the Bruins:
''When I came out to Boston and met with everyone from hockey operations, I sat down, I opened up about what I did and the stuff I want moving forward. I think they have the best resources for me and the stuff I want to do.''
Miller, 20, appeared in 60 games with the Tri-City Storm of the USHL last season and registered 39 goals and 44 assists to capture the ''Defenseman of the Year'' award.
