ok i will sum up the last few games of the season we will win the next 2 im guessing a OT win on both. we go into the last game of the season play great and have a 2 goal lead in the 3rd. now everyone is thinking OMG WE ARE GOING TO MAKE THE PLAYOFF’S!!! sabres relax and boston scores 3 goal in the last 5 min of the game last goal will be a soft goal that miller should have had

won’t matter…there’s no way the other teams are going to win/lose in our favor…at least not as much as we need them to.

tuesday and friday’s games, losing 2 goal leads twice in 1 week in the 3rd period…that ended the season

LMFAO!

The only way Miller could have taken himself more out of position on that play would have been to go sit on the bench.

EDIT:  
Now that I think about that more, Miller on the bench might be better. We’d have the extra attacker and our net would only be slightly more open. Has anyone ever pulled the goalie with 58 minutes left in the game? 😉

Miller is way off as usual , he needs to learn how to follow the puck again,going from one of the best in the league to one of the worst doesn’t look good for a goalie thats trying to command more money eventually.

miller overvalues himself. therefore, his agent will overvalue him.

i define value as being the cost of the average of statistically comparable players. in order to assess value, you have to use statistics that are much more player dependent and opposed to team dependent (thus i would value sv% as a more relevant statistic than GAA).

the problem is this: the league overvalues ryan miller. so, therefore, if miller, his agent, and the league overvalues miller, then he will not settle for less than top tier money. if the sabres can lock him up for 3-5mill per year, then that would be great. i realistically think he will be looking for 7mill+, and he would get it on the open market after next season (barring drastic changes).
