87168 Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Ryan Miller is the least of our worries right now. Are you sure? Despite the fact that he's not even in right now I'd say he's a main priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james duncan Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Not to mention the fact two of those were routine saves. If Miller wants to be pampered like the "golden boy" superstar he thinks he is, he needs to play like one. Gotta wonder if having a strong #2 for a change is playing with his head.

tulax Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Must stop tinkering. I think it took two shifts to break up the Vanek-Leino-Pommer line. At this rate, every single forward the Sabres have will have played with each other by the All Star break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HopefulFuture Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 None of this should surprise anyone really. Not addressing the core issue of this roster (everyone was screaming for defense, well, look what it got you). Basically, teams are using our own 05 to 07 formula of speed and a mean forecheck against us. I don't blame Miller, I blame Lindy Ruff. No offense to the Ruff lovers, but this is just a pathetic display of his continued failures. I didn't expect anything different this season though, not until they address the overall issues upfront.

Snowmobiler97 Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 At least the Leino,Roy,staff line looks good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's been that bad overall in the season. The guys in front of him haven't done anything to help. Some goals have been his fault, but you see that much action, you're gonna let a few in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elj4176 Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 I might be able to score high glove against Miller tonight - and I don't even play hockey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJFIVEOH Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Gotta wonder if having a strong #2 for a change is playing with his head. Maybe. That should be a good thing, lol. A strong #2 should give him extra incentive to play well...... if he feels threatened by a #2 maybe he shouldn't be a #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnRobertEichel Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 I think it took two shifts to break up the Vanek-Leino-Pommer line. At this rate, every single forward the Sabres have will have played with each other by the All Star break. I don't understand why Leino needed to be put into the top line against his former team to spark his game. Shouldn't his crappy play in the first 10 games be the spark he needs to up his game? Even if it's on the second or third or fourth lines? See, this is what potentially scares me about Pegula's Dream Team: too many guys paid like superstars now, and not enough guys with the proper self-motivation needed to win a Stanley Cup.

North Buffalo Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Sabres still need a number 1 center. The D is trying to take over that role, but leaving counters exposed and teams have figured that out. Got bring in Weber and play solid D and not so much attacking unless the Sabres can get a Center.
