Blues Director of Hockey Operations Ryan Miller was named to Hockey's 40 Under 40 List, which was published by The Athletic on Wednesday.

Miller, 36, has worked under General Manager Doug Armstrong in the Blues' front office for 10 years.

Here's what The Athletic's Craig Custance had to say about Miller:

"There's a group of executives in various NHL front offices that came up through Kurt Overhardt's agency that have now worked their way into prominent roles and Miller, 36, is one of them. He's become an invaluable member of the reigning champs' front office, where he does everything from analytics to arbitration briefs to salary cap calculations. 'He's basically doing the job of three people,' said one NHL source. 'He does all of Doug (Armstrong's) dirty work.'

Other prominent names on the list include Chicago Blackhawks Head Coach Jeremy Colliton, Toronto Maple Leafs General Manager Kyle Dubas and Head Coach Sheldon Keefe, Calgary Flames Assistant GM Chris Snow, Meghan Chayka - who co-founded the analytics firm Stathletes, and USA Hockey Director of Diversity and Inclusion Stephanie Jackson.
