Did anyone catch this article in the Buffalo News?
The article goes through Miller's stats over the course of the season:
Then Miller goes on to basically admit that he wasn't a professional at times and needs to improve:
Yet, despite the stats and Miller admitting his own shortcomings, the article is about keeping him here and what we need to do that. Basically, Miller ****ed up but he's still a hot commodity.
The NHL learned NOTHING from the lockout. Players' salaries are going to continue to go up, and continue to get out of proportion with their actual performance. I'm not blaming Miller for this- he certainly didn't create this situation- he's just the example.
So, the FO will throw money at him hoping he looks like the Ryan Miller of 2 years ago and not the Ryan Miller of this year. Or they'll let him go and overpay some marginal back-up to take his place. Either way, it's a big gamble.
