I like our chances if/when we get out of this scoring slump, as long as its soon. Hopefully tonights 3 goal game is evidence of that. BTW I wasnt accusing you of jumping off the wagon, just merely spreading positive outlook. agreed. no, i am in a mini depression from being at the game. i honestly think that was one of my least favorite sabres games i have been to in a while. i enjoyed the game for about 5 minutes in the 3rd period. the rest of the time, i was pissed about letting in the 1st fucking shot on goal for the second game in a row. oh, and miller also let in the 1st shot on goal in the second period as well. letting in the 1st shot of the game, and 1st shot of any period is a momentum sucker. knocks the wind right out of the team. if miller is going to ever reach elite goalie status, he needs to shore that shit up. to me, guys like luongo, lundqvist and brodeur are on another planet, and then there are a bunch of “solid” guys (miller included). but people talk about miller like he is top 5 in the league. i would disagree with that. take a look at his stats, while GAA is more of a team defense state, save % is more of a pure goalie stat. his stats are pedestrian. i want them to turn it around. extended losing streaks are brutal. it sure is nice when your $7-10million players score at a point per night or greater pace (see heatley, alfreddson, and spezza), in comparison to vanek, roy, and connolly’s .5 or less ppn pace. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/official-07-08-buffalo-sabres-season-thread/36504)._
