Could that be due to lazyness? I sure hope not! :fit:

Miller w/ Mika backing him up. Biron will be traded. Not that there is anything wrong with Biron its just not his turn any more here.

really though, I chose Noronen, I also think we need to trade one of our goalies because theres no way Miller can play in Rochester again all season, as much as I don't like him, I think he is ready for the NHL, BUT.... NOT as a starter, I believe Biron pretty much had his chance and we should get rid of him because we would get a lot mroe for him than we would for Noronen I'm sorry to say. so start Mika, put Miller as a backup, trade Biron for some scoring talent! WORD.

OK, you think Noronen would take the starting position from Miller? I really dont think so. From what I seen at practices and pre-season games....he has been SPECTACULAR in net. Noronen allowed 6 goals in a row agains the Wild? Gross man, GROSS. I think we played Biron last night to show him off to other teams, which wasn't that big of a showoff in the end haha. Come the start of the season Miller will be starting and Noronen will be keeping his seat warm.

Isn't that status quo for both Mika & Marty, though? :D

Of everything that's happened in the offseason, next to the inactivity on the FA market, the goaltender battle is the biggest thing. There is less than a week to go, and we have no decision yet. This thing needs to be wrapped up, and soon.

oh you mean like the 03-04 season and then we decided to start Miller and... OH YEA.... 5.08 GAA and .7 something SV% lol.... look I know Miller is gunna be the one that starts the season just because the Buffalo front office/coachers are complete idiots but Noronen is gunna be the one to step up in the end

Miller has had plenty of time to mature since last NHL season, noronen has had his time....like this team he is very inconsistent.

Come on, Makaveli----You're gonna derail the wagon I'm driving, that all of these other people have been jumping on lately! :D

I see your point, and I could definitely live with Mika being the goaltender, if Ryan doesn't get the job. I think it is time for Lindy to understand that Biron's time has come and gone....although I still must say, no netminder in Buffalo has ever had a consistent defense in front of them to speak of. That includes Dom. He was just that good.

Miller will start
Noronen will be backup
Biron goes bye-bye
