    c'mon it's Jerry "Negative" Sullivan he's just writing dribble as always, now if Vogl wrote this it could mean something but coming from Sullivan paleeeease give me a break! also Harrington was trying to get Rolston all riled up the other night in the press conference. http://blogs.buffalonews.com/sabres/...1.html?ref=bmh

    Sullivan or not, Miller has seemed to have quit. At 32 ship his ass out and continue to rebuild.

    Not a fan of Sully in the least, in fact I think he's a ****tard, but he hit all bullseyes in that piece. The time for Miller to go was a couple of seasons ago in all reality, but better late than never.

    Let's try to trade him for picks again, maybe this time he won't become so hormonal for his new team.

    I still say check his pads for blood.

    I would not boo him, but he has to be replaced here. He is not the reason the Sabres stink this year, but he was part if it.

    Re: Millers time with Sabres near the end?

    I am going to preface this with I only listened to the games this year and did not watch them ... hockey sucks on the radio LOL.

    With that in mind...I thought Miller had a great season. For him, to stay mentally focused while getting peppered with shots the way he was demonstrated a lot of improvement in his game over prior seasons. Every goalie lets in bad goals sometimes. I just got the impression he was better this year and is a goal tender that can really help a team in the playoffs. Yes, there is a sense that goaltenders are a dime a dozen when they have good teams in front of them. It's a shame to have this guy on the squad and clearly looking to elevate his game as opposed to mentally taking a free ride ... and then to just say it's no big deal to see him move on. They should let him play out his contract and consider offering him an extension during the season next year.

    It's not Millers fault. The team in front of him is what sucked not him.

    Re: Millers time with Sabres near the end?

    yeah. The mentality of this team was piss poor ... and he called them on it. It was Miller that came right out and called for change in all facet's of the organization. If they stick with him it's a guy to build a real team with ... if not they are chicken **** and letting a player that strives for excellence both in his own play and his team mates walk.

    He's out of time, 32 with a 1-2 softie a game minimum is not going to help us much.

    Re: Millers time with Sabres near the end?

    Even if Miller had a great season (which he didn't, he had a good season) it's beside the point. To resign him would take a boatload of money, which would be paid out while the team rebuilds--a team that, best case scenario, could be competitve in 3-4 years. By that time, Miller is 36 years old, i.e. finished.

    Like Sully the Douche says, that money could be put to much better use.

    It's time to get what we can for him, while he still has some value. As of now, the returns are diminishing.

    1. This team does not need a 4 year rebuild. What it needs is leadership. It is much closer than you are saying ... however, it needs some pieces in place that aren't there to gel with the guys in the food chain and get them up and running.

    2. Since when is 36 washed up for a goaltender?

    If the team lets fans and/or media dictate their moves, then they have bigger problems than a terrible GM and a buffoon for an owner.
