Good thing Miller wasn't an All-Star this year or they probably would have traded him too.
They must have someone sitting there and waiting to type in changes.

You ***** they move too slow. Now you ***** they move too fast.VERY below my expectations too. How the hell could they not get a big prospect with him?I understand that they wanted to move Campbell, but they pulled the trigger way too fast.
BTW, Bernier is a very nice player who very much fills a need on this team.
Contract
Bernier is on a three year entry-level contract worth US$3.55 million, which will expire in June 2008. This deal includes $850,000 in yearly salary as well as a one million dollar signing bonus.

He fills a need and looks like a decent player. But they could have gotten more. There was a lot of teams interested in Campbell.
That makes this trade even better!
Yes there were other teams interested, but that doesn't mean there deals were any better. A first round draft pick is nothing to scoff at.He fills a need and looks like a decent player. But they could have gotten more. There was a lot of teams interested in Campbell.
Contract expires but he is a RFA in June.
It is when you don't have a scouting staff anymore. 1st rounders are definitely hit or miss in the NHL.
Well...we'll have to see how this effects our play.
Face it, we weren't too hot WITH Campbell because we couldn't score...so this better pay some divedends because I really don't think Sabres fans are going to settle for anything less than the playoffs considering all the moves. You don't make moves to get worse, you make them to get better, and it seems like all the moves we've made over the past year has made us considerably worse.
And you know what offers were made?He fills a need. But they could have gotten more. There was a lot of teams interested in Campbell.
You are over-reacting.
At least he can fight.Maybe this guy has the toughness that this team has been lacking since we lost Grier.....
Yeah, this guy does look like he's meant to be a Sabre.
Exaclty what we need more of is toughness and grit and some fight. We have sorely lacked it.At least he can fight.
He'll be changing his uniform number.
