I would call in a TKO

"When asked if other teammates are taking it hard Miller said, “Yes, I think so. We all respect Paul and we all thought he was a big part of our team and even from a fan perspective, he was well liked and even if you didn’t quite understand his role and what he did for us, I think you’ll recognize he was an important piece and if you don’t understand, I’m not going to explain it because it’s just too important for a hockey team I think so it is a little frustrating in that regard so these are decisions we don’t have any control over. You have to do your best with what you have in the locker-room and that’s your goal and that’s your mission and you have to accept that because it’s never going to be any different, so we’ll get these guys to a good place and we’ve got a lot of hockey to play here. We feel like we have a chance to do something here so it revolves around winning hockey games, that’s not going to be about moping around because Paul’s not here, it’s about pushing forward.”

I think he is fine this is being blown out of proportion

I see your point Punch but Paul Hamilton sounds like he is genuine when he says Miller is pissed !! We can only create a mental image as to Millers face when making these comments.

nooo you think?

and its paul hamilton he is a bit of a prima dona himself

Miller needs to get over it, players get traded it's the NHL way.

I'll reserve judgment until this road trip. If they come out of this road trip still pouting, then I will be angry. As of now, I'm going to assume it's a kneejerk reaction. He's been there a while. Now, he's gone, I'm sure it takes more than 5 minutes to adjust.

I defend Miller all the time and will continue to however, " we will get these guys in the right place" WE will? get yourself in the right place first.

Ha. I was thinking the same thing on the way home after hearing Miller's comments. If he's so pissed about it, well he should look in the mirror. If other guys are so pissed about it, they should look within themselves too. Had they played like we all know they can play, Goose would still be here and we'd be prepping for a playoff run rather than getting pumped up about a good draft pick.

That being said, I think if you read between the lines with Miller, especially the part about what Goose brings to the team and his effort, he's pissed that Goose had to be the one to bite the bullet here, when there are other guys who probably deserved to get sent packing.

Saw it on FB first

Sounds like he is talking down to the fans saying they didn't understand the "role" goose played. and we are not worth the time to explain it to us. unless he was talking to Bucky or Hamilton then his attitude was completely justified.

20 games of anyone not just goose for a first. It ain't like we are cup favorites this year.

The difference between Miller and Pominville and Kaleta is that Miller will be absolutely brutally honest when he gives an interview.

Pominville sounded like a pretty cut and dry typical response that you guys are looking out of Miller. You guys complain when they give those interviews, yet when Miller shows his true emotions you guys blow up at him over it?

C'mon its obvious hes upset to see Gaustad go, but he understands at the same time.

Miller might get over it but us fans will remember it for a long time . As homie mentioned .
Most haven't forgotten his breakdown his first game vs the wings .

More evidence that Miller is a fragile little girl. Trade his ass too. He has to realize the Sabres existed before him and they will exist after him.

Just goes to show Ryan is totatlly disconnected from reality and has no real interest in seeing the Buffalo fans happy.

HELLO RYAN, YOUR TEAM IS IN 12TH PLACE AND HASNT WON A PLAYOFF SERIES IN HALF A DECADE!
