Northstar Knight Alumni, Blaise Miller, has committed to Concordia College in Moorhead, MN. Miller came to the Knights for the 2020-21 season following 2 seasons with Grand Forks Central High School. In 40 games played for the Knights, the Minot, ND native put up 34 points (17G, 17A) and helped the team win the 18U NAPHL Championship. “Blaise brought an infectious smile to Northstar and always made it a fun day”, said 18U Prep Coach, Rylan Galiardi. “He was a power forward that when he took the puck to the net no one could stop him.”
After his time with the Knights, Miller would play the 2021-22 season with the Bismarck Bobcats in the NAHL where he scored 8 points (5G, 3A) in 33 games played. He would then move to the Oklahoma Warriors in the NAHL for the 2022-23 season where he would score 23 points (14G, 9A) in 58 games played en route to helping the Warriors capture the 2023 Robertson Cup. Arguably one of his biggest goals of his career came in the Championship game to give the Warriors a 3-1 lead over the Austin Bruins. Winning a championship was a great way to cap off his junior career, but Miller still has a lot to look forward to at Concordia College. “I’m looking forward to playing for a good team, and trying to make a run at the title this year,” Miller said. “I am excited for school and to be successful in that category as well.”
