Razor would have done something

‘Ray, who is part of the Sabres broadcast team, was between the benches doing colour commentary during the game and said him and his colleagues expected someone to go after Lucic. “In our minds it was going to happen at some point in the game, and when it didn’t, especially when the score become 6-1, it became a real issue,” Ray said.’

Sabres’ Miller has concussion; Regier wants suspension

‘”If this hit and other types of hits like this are not suspended, we are opening up the possibility of losing goaltenders to injury. And not just injury, but concussion,” Regier said. “… When I look at the position of goaltending, in a lot of ways it’s not unlike quarterback in football. I feel very strongly the protection has to be provided and players committing these types of action should be punished.”‘

Sabres’ Miller out with concussion following Lucic hit

‘Now they regret it. They know their response wasn’t enough. “No. No it wasn’t. I can do more,” Sabres assistant captain Paul Gaustad, who was on the ice for the hit, told reporters Saturday. “I’m embarrassed that we didn’t respond the way we should’ve. That falls on myself. First I look at myself. I wasn’t good enough tonight.”’

Sabres failed to get payback

‘The check again revealed the dishonest play of Lucic and, in failing to lift a finger in defence of their franchise goalie, the turtling of the Sabres as a whole.’

Sabres G Miller out indefinitely with concussion

‘The Sabres revealed the nature of Miller’s injury Sunday, while also announcing they had called up goalie Drew McIntyre from their AHL affiliate in Rochester. McIntyre is expected to serve as backup to Jhonas Enroth on Monday night at Montreal.’
