Me too and that is the reason I want Miller dealt as well. I don't want him stealing games the Sabres have no business winning and hindering their ability to draft where they actually should be. Top three picks help build winners and I know there are busts as well but I still want top 3 picks.

Not like that's been too big of a problem for the last 3 years or so. He does not steal close to as many games for his team that a 6+ million $$ a year goalie should be stealing, imo, and his shootout % hasn't been so hot in the last 3 years (he used to be lights-out when shootouts first started).

I'm more worried that his attitude in the locker room will be a negative if he's on the roster this year.

Lights out? Maybe, he was top ten a few times never in the top 5. Actually last year he regained his shootout performance... I think he was 12th. The three years before he was less than stellar (20th or lower)

I want Miller gone, no questions asked. Vanek, if he doesn't want to be here, needs to go, too.

But I want them gone so we can turn the dressing room over and start creating some new leadership in there.

Right now the topic is my draft beer and xtra hot chicken wing farts that are ripping into my co-workers like a Sharknado!

Our team is gonna be so f'n stacked next year...















.... in Rochester.

I love how buffalo drafts centers then has them play wing. Great plan. Why not have Girgensons play center in the AHL next season and have him play 20 mins per game and we can see if he is gonna score? I'm sick of going to amerks games and seeing Ellis on first line and watching AHL veterans who have no chance to make NHL. Mancari and Luke Adam for example.

I watched a few minutes of that show and turned it...

That is seriously the worst acted show on television. I wonder every time I see it just how it stays on the air.

This is something that some people forget....

Vanek told the media "if it is a more than a 1 year rebuild.. I want out"

Miller didn't say anything like that.

Lack of scoring again, its not like that QMJHL defensemen is scoring or anyone else is putting up points other than veterans

Luke Adam is not a vet....



and It is very common that players get drafted at Center and are flexible to also play the wing. It is a lot easier to change a center into a winger than a winger into a center.

It is seen a lot. I thought with going to Amerk's games for 44 years of your historical and amazing knowledge you would know this.

I still want him gone.

Never liked his attitude, and never will. And especially can't stand the glare he gives his defensemen if a puck goes in off one of them.

Are they serving beer at the scrimmage?

thank god this is the last day of development camp. Darcy can refocus on dealing Stafford, Miller, and Vanek

hey.... not every one is going to like every one.. I understand that...


I think his attitude melts on a losing team... he is an extremely competitive player and when he loses games or when the media baits him with the same questions every night.. he gets pissed...


as far as his "stare" goes... I don't think it is a big deal... but I can see where you might think it is annoying because it isn't technically the d-man's fault.

I'm pretty sure he was just a guest. I only know this from previews in between Big Bang Theory because I would never watch S&S. Incidentally they seem to have a guest stars every week, probably just a cheap way to get ratings because the show is so abismal.

Stafford to WSH for a pick

Miller to Col for McGinn, Sgarbossa, and a conditional 3rd that becomes a 1st if Miller resigns there.

Vanek signs an extension for 5 years making 8M per season.



I bet that is how it happens.

Makes sense...


I was flipping back and forth last night between In Time and Sharknado for like 10 minutes..

Stafford to WSH for a pick

Miller to Col for McGinn, Sgarbossa, and a conditional 3rd that becomes a 1st if Miller resigns there.

Vanek signs an extension for 5 years making 8M per season.
