@BillHoppeNHL Jaroslav Halak and Chris Stewart are on the ice w/the #Sabres this morning.

That's certainly not it. LaFontaine has been MIA for the last several games. He wasn't even at FNC for any of the games this week.

So, they were going to point a gun to Miller's head and force him to sign an extension that he had clearly no interest in? Makes no sense that this was a point of contention.

WGR has Bulldog, Jeremy White, and Paul Hamilton on from 9 AM to 11 AM this morning to discuss the LaFontaine resignation matter.

@AdamBenigni #Sabres VP of Communications Mike Gilbert says organization continues to work on extension for Ted Nolan.

You're welcome.
