Hailing from the Golden State, while showcasing a golden performance between the pipes, Miles Roberts notched two dominant wins over the weekend. The 6-foot-2 netminder kicked off his weekend in a big way on Friday night. Roberts secured his second shutout in his NAHL career with a 29-save performance. His ability in the crease carried into Saturday night. Roberts allowed an early first-period goal. Following that, he was lights out. The Costa Mesa, California native turned away 17 out of 18 shots on net, earning his second win of the weekend.
This weekend marked Roberts’ first time in his NAHL career to secure a series sweep with only himself in net for both games. He featured a 0.50 goals-against average and a .979 save percentage from the weekend set. Roberts stopped a total of 46 out of 47 in net.
Head coach of the Ice Dogs, Dakota Bell, explains what it means to see Roberts named to the honor.
“We’re thrilled to see Miles earn this recognition as Midwest Star of the Week. Miles shows up to the rink every day with a pro mentality, ready to work on his craft. This has led to him being our most consistent player since the start of the second half of the season. As an age-out, Miles brings valuable experience and a calming presence to our locker room. We’re lucky to have him on our side as we head down the final stretch of the season.”
