Glad he is so close though! Im also kinda glad in a way that miller isnt going to be on the USA team. If he got injured playing for another team i would be pissed.

Word im super glad hes staying with us during the olympics. But it sucks for him kinda. I mean, just imagine playing so well your rookie year that you get chosen to be on an olympic team with a chance to win a gold medal…
But rob ray was talking about brieres return and he said if a player feels they are ready to play then there is no reason they shouldnt play. He had to go through all the practices and routines so if he thinks hes ready then why wait?

I love Rayzor (hence my avitar) - but he is a F\*cking moron sometimes— i heard him say that too. - If we are winning w/out Briere, then why throw him in a game and rush? He’ll stay conditioned by staying in practice.

^^ I also heard mckee say the same thing on a radio interview. Either way, its not like we are counting on his return so we can start winning or anything.
I heart the sabres depth this year.
