Whats up with that Wilson guy, last game he went against an out of breath out of shape Belesky and barely got a draw and now CMiller tunes him like a banjo?

The funniest part was that he clearly initiated the whole thing and tried to get the drop on Miller...
Unsuccessfully

Wilson hunted Miller specifically down, I didn`t see the game, did Miller do something prior to this that had Wilson angry or was this a case of him picking which player he thought he`d be able to pound and got a little surprise?

One of Jack or Brick made the comment that it might have spilled out of the AHL. That was the only thing I heard.

Whatever the reason, it was nice to see. I'm not looking forward to the day when that is no longer in the game.

If you watch Miller closely (and I have), he's always one of the first guys to a teammate's aid and is heavily involved in the scrums. While it hadn't led to a fight until now, I wasn't surprised at al that he knew how to handle himself.

It was an interesting fight to me. Not the normal exchange of lets get energy crap.
Miller was at him like Wilson had just insulted his wife or something. He reminded me a bit of Wayne Cashman. Not as good a fighter obviously and not my point. But Cash was known to completely snap, I mean nuts, every once and awhile .
Like Ralphie beating the snot out of the bully in a Christmas Story.
It reminded me of that.

I`ve liked his game for a while now, the 6-7 games prior to his injury he was one of the B`s most consistent performers, didn`t like his game as much prior to that because of what you mentioned in a way, he rarely hesitates if ever to get in the face of opponents if he feels a teammate has been wronged but I wasn`t seeing him play physically tough in front of his net and his puck decisions weren`t strong (he wasn`t/isn`t alone)
What I have seen over the last while is a guy who is making quick and smart decisions with the puck, before, he`d get the puck, not look, and just slap it around the boards
Really enjoying the kids game although admittedly I haven`t watched the last few B`s games as I required a mental break which bodes the question, why the he** if I needed a mental break would I come on here and post?

That's a great comparison
Chiller really wanted to hammer the guy and he did. I loved it.

I watched the replay on Hockey Fights and they are 1-2 seconds too late to see what happened...you'll see Colin's stick coming back from Wilson...did he flick ice or tap him on the back...can't tell, but there definitely was something that Wilson was responding to. Some subtle thing that Miller did to tick him off.

Even this anti-fighting dude can appreciate Colin's performance in that scrum. I'll justify it by saying he was defending himself.
But I've come to appreciate his other talents as he gains favor with Clode and regular ice time. Kid's got it all figured out, apparently.

He's been really impressing me, enough to where I want him penciled into the lineup next year for sure.
Need offensive guys who are competent defensively with some physicality to their game.

My favorite part of that clip may have been how quickly he retrieved the puck in his zone and passed to his partner before Wilson hit him. Right at the start of the clip.
Miller has really gained confidence this season. For me he's now the bona fide #6 going forward. When McAvoy comes we will officially no longer need McQuaid or Kevan, which is awesome because we just extended them!!! Yippee!!!! Oh wait...Vegas right? They'll want one of those guys, and the other one is an easy trade. Teams will be lined up.

The issue for me with Miller (Kevan) is health, not ability so much. If he could just stay on the ice the B's would have no problem moving him.
If that injury to Carlo is significant, Killer and Chiller will both have to step it up.
