Anyone else notice whenever they showed the Sabres bench. Sucko the assistant coach was pointing and communicating (yelling) at the players and they showed RR standing no emotion and scribbling on his note pad?

There are a lot of coaches, successful and not successful alike, that have that approach. That really doesn't bother me.

I thin they're is zero possibility he signs to stay in the east unless it's with the rangers.

They might be worse off than the Islanders. I'm thinking Miller wants to win now or pretty soon at least

Don't let that fool you, I don't think Sacco is a very good coach. Skolnik misses his nerd holder.

Its like them saying there is no truth to the Darcy getting fired rumor. What else can miller say but that? It'd of been a pr disaster for him.

He could have done what Vanek did and avoided a direct answer to the question altogether.

Here the scenario:

Miller gets traded to a team wins the cup.

Rangers can't get Hank locked up.

They offer Miller the most money.


Only way I see him signing in the east.

He's not like Vanek though.

i am sure he could be convinced to stay though.. he would probably need to be given about 6,500,000 reasons

I agree, Sacco isn't a very good coach. He wasn't a very good player either.

He's not like Vanek though.

I guess. I just don't see him pulling what Hasek did, at least expressly. I could be dead wrong.

Miller and Grigorenko become best friends

They do karate in the garage

They build bunk beds

He signs with the Sabres with a dont touch my drum set clause

7.2 reasons would be my guess.

Whats up peeps

that is all

Who signs him in the West in FA? Blues? Ducks maybe when they trade Hiller to EDM...

One of the many problems with this team is 3 of its "leaders" are ufa's at the end of the year. It's a distraction that not many teams can over comeand especially a young team. They should've been resigned/moved prior to the season. Another in a long list of things why Darcy has failed.

St. Louis. Anaheim. Call me crazy, but I wouldn't be surprised to see San Jose try to make it work.

San Jose or Vancouver.

My guess is he wants to be out in California near his wife, so figure out in that area. Phoenix maybe ?

Luongo has been playing well enough as of late. If he maintains that level, I think they stick with him.

how long is mike smiths contract.. he makes like 5 mil.. they can't afford to invest over 10 mil in goalies

they would have to buy out Lou for miller to go there

He wants out though so it's no surprise he's playing well.

Smith is signed long term there, so I doubt they trade him to make room for Miller

- IndianaSabresFan

With him playing well it becomes more likely a team might be willing to take on that contract.

Very good point. Have to remember teams can still use a buyout next summer though so anything is possible.
