4th round pick...

He ain't worth near what u would think. Its a buyers market still for goalies

Miller has little value on the trade market. i wouldn't expect any package for him to eclipse what LA got for Bernier. no point in dealing him unless the Sabres just want to move on from him.

So Horcoff and Hemsky's value put together?

as a flyers fan i'd only have interest in him after being bough out. that 6.25mm cap hit is a killer, he isn't worth that cap hit.

not at his age, not with his performance the last couple of years. i do agree that he would benefit from a change of scenery, but that doesn't add any trade value.

The value for all goalies went up then including Luongo.

what makes him valuable when a bunch of those guys you listed can be had for free

at least luongo is locked into a long term contract and can't escape after one year lol

You people are unbelievable. Ryan Miller is continually at or near the top of the league in even strength save pctg, which most advanced statisticians believe is the best indicator of a goalie's ability. His GAA was unter 2.00 over the final 30gms of the season last year, and most importantly, the Sabres can retain a large portion of his salary in any deal, making him an affordable, accomplished goalie in a market with no similar options. Get a grip.

i see Vanek bringing in a real nice return for Buffalo. even though he's inconsistent, still a very productive winger with some size.

disagree.....completely.

u dont have a goalie

doesn't mean we have to overpay for one

Until Luongo is bought out

i see Vanek bringing in a real nice return for Buffalo. even though he's inconsistent, still a very productive winger with some size.

Again, what the hell are you talking about? Inconsistent?

turns 33 july 17th, very limited playoff success, bit of a headcase.

So Miller for Horcoff and Hemsky?
- oilersfanatic

YES!!!! PLEASE!!!! Not that I like Miller that much but I like him a lot more than Horcoff and Hemmer!
The thing is I do not think the Sabres GM would be that stupid.

u mean you never know if hell score 30 or 40 goals?

I can't imagine philly overpaying for a goalie.

wanna talk stats? Ryan Miller has been a .500 goalie with mediocre to lousy GAA and SV% the past 3 years. he's about to turn 33 years old and will likely see his play slip over the next 3-4 years. if you think one isolated statistic trumps all of this detailed mediocrity, ok. but i guarantee you that other GMs base a goalie's value on his overall performance.
