We laughed about it later and I joked about sending him a bill, but a signed puck took the sting away a little bit back then. Happy snapping and don't forget to always shoot with both eyes open! -Shelly </p>Alison Forde commented on 'Miller's one in a million shot!'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf8f353ef0120a6faf95d970b2009-12-02T03:41:14Z2009-12-02T03:41:14ZAlison FordeI have to say, goalies are some of the classiest players.

<p>On my first (and only, so far) Leafs road trip game (coincidentally in Buffalo) I had the opportunity to go down to the glass during the pre-game warm-up. There weren't any photographers there so I removed the plexiglass cover from the photographer's hole and began taking some pictures of my own with my little point & shoot. I was a little concerned about the numerous pucks hitting and rolling off the boards/glass, but kept taking pictures anyway. Eventually, when some of the players were lined up in front of me with their backs to the glass, I noticed a glove covering the hole. At first I thought it was one of the Leafs essentially telling me to stop, but then the glove opened and dropped a practice puck through the hole. I looked up and saw Andrew Raycroft's name and number in front of me. He didn't get to play that night, unfortunately, but the Leafs did win. Out of all the Leafs games I've been to that is by far my favourite, mostly thanks to Raycroft. I find it's not often the players acknowledge the fans while they're in the audience, as you can see when many kids' high-five attempts are ignored as the players enter and exit the dressing rooms.</p>Andrei Tokarev commented on 'Miller's one in a million shot!'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf8f353ef012875fb29c2970c2009-12-01T22:12:45Z2009-12-01T22:12:45ZAndrei Tokarevhttp://www.marliesboosterclub.caSteve, I've had a pleasure of meeting you personally a few times at Photo Expo and listening to your talks...<p>Steve,</p>
<p>I've had a pleasure of meeting you personally a few times at Photo Expo and listening to your talks - very inspiring!</p>
<p>I saw that little accident on TV and would like to congratulate you for being a real pro and finishing the assignment.<br />
As usual your photos from the game were top notch.</p>
<p>Also,<br />
something you might not know:</p>
<p>a few years ago some TV hockey program did a profile on Ryan Miller in the off-season.<br />
Apparently, Ryan is an avid photographer himself and likes taking photos wherever he goes.<br />
Perhaps, that's something you both can chat about the next time :)</p>
<p>Heal quickly and have fun shooting the Olympics in Vancouver!</p>Jimmy Jeong commented on 'Miller's one in a million shot!'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341bf8f353ef0120a6f86c00970b2009-12-01T20:57:24Z2009-12-01T20:57:24ZJimmy Jeonghttp://www.jimmyshoots.comMy biggest nightmare when shooting down low.
