My theory on the Sabres demise is the locker room became hopelessly split after the Lucic incident. Likely bad blood developed between different factions over how that should have been handled, plus Miller and Enroth were probably pissed at the guys skater's weak response. Team was 10-5 and change before, and horrible afterward. It all points back to Lucic on Miller. Gonna have to trade a bunch of players including Miller to right the ship. And yes, it'll cost Ruff the helm as well.
That's my opinion and didn't want it buried in a thread..
