    Is Miller shot?

    Anyone think he will rebound or are we just on a downhill spiral. Personally I think he is done in buffalo. Maybe he gets traded and and turns it around for another team but I don't see it happening here. All the Miller supporters can not even argue he is terrible this year. Save the 1 or 2 years he has been average his whole career.

    This article made me think of Trent Edwards. Edwards was just never the same after his consussion and Miller might be in that category. With the concussion, maybe Enroth and Miller should switch. Enrouth is 1A and Miller is 1B and rest him up for next season.

        Re: Is Miller shot?

        He peaked during the Olympics a few years ago and it's been all downhill since then.

        I think the players gave up on Lindy and Miller gave up on the players. There have been far too many times over the past 3 years or so when he's been the only one playing worth a damn and I think he's finally just tired of it. They hang him out to dry and they don't stand up for him.

        That's not to make excuses for the guy- every player is responsible for their own performance and Miller's steady decline is his own fault. But I think it's more attitude than skill and I think he could be a serviceable goalie with a different coach and some players in front of him who give a ****.

        Given the needs of this team, and how well Enroth is playing, it's not outside the realm of possibility that he gets traded. But I don't think it's likely. Darcy is married to his guys and Miller is at the top of that list.

        Plus, this team struggled for so long to find a decent back-up and if Miller or Enroth were to get traded, we have nothing behind them. A back-up goalie would almost have to be part of the deal, which makes it even less likely.

          "It's not good hockey. It's not good from top down," Miller said. "I need to be better. I can't seem to find a night where I can get in a groove. I don't know what the hell it is."
          this sounds like a guy who has hit a wall. that glove hand just doesn't get up anymore and its inthe right spot when he's down in the butterfly.

                    This bugs me about his wife being out in California. Why would you marry the chick knowing that you work in New York and she works in California? Ok, you want to get married and you know the situation before hand. It's not the Sabres fault you married someone 2000 miles away but they are the ones paying for it. It's not like you were married before hand and you were traded to the East Coast. You chose to marry someone 2000 miles away, suck it and stop being a pussy, and play the way you are suppose to play. Of course your head could still be in a fog due to your concussion which for you should be sitting.

                      Yard-Rat hit it on the head. The Sabres are latching onto the 'injury' excuse the Bills have milked to death. Fine, but Miller's goal-tending clearly started to decline as soon as he started thinking about the girl-friend out on the West coast and less about his day-to-day business.

                      This lowly cart.... it hits harder and has a higher yards
                      per play average than the Bills' offense!

                        Miller goes with who ever wants to trade for Reghyr.

                              Reghyr is NEVER going to be traded so you can get that though out of your head.
