People seem to still think Miller is the U.S. version of Patrick Roy or something

above average goaltender at best......who just turned 33, and is a headcase

good trade value my ass

yep just get the goddamn deal done so we can have something else to talk about

if Miller and Vanek are on the Sabres roster opening night without a contract extension it will be a huge distraction to everyone

Miller needs to be gone yesterday.....he will have no value at the trade deadline unless a contenders goalie goes down.

- rustbelt82

Bishop was traded for Conacher and a pick, and not to a contender. Miller won't be worthless. You guys are just frustrated and bored.

call him very good and get rid of headcase. his salary and age alone pretty much destroy the trade value his abilities provide

Bishop = young and upcoming goaltender = trade value

Miller = aging goaltender approaching bottom half of career = no trade value

Miller doesnt go to STL in my opinion. but if he does I could see this..cept wed still not need halak

Miller, Vanek and a 2015 2nd rounder

for

Oshie, Schwartz and Jaroslav Halak

- Beezer33


Not happening/ no way no how is that poop trade happening.

Oshie is not going anywhere.

Schwartz isnt going anywhere.

Halak gets moved for a pick to a place like Florida.

You got to think the appeal of having a decent young 6'7 goalie has a bit of appeal on its own. I mean if he is 6'1-2 I think he gets moved for a bit less then he did but the fact that he is 6'7 just made is value that much sweeter.

The fact that Bishop is 27 and has done nothing of note yet in the league while not making a mark is not concerning to anyone?

How can Miller not have more value then him?!

Halak is a UFA after this coming season.
Zero need to buy him out.
Take him back, let him play out the season here with Enroth, trade him at the deadline for a pick, then bring up Hackett for the remainder of the season.

I don't get the Miller for Halak deal people keep throwing around. Miller makes the Blues no better than they are with Halak and Halak makes the Sabres no better than they are with Miller. It would be a wash of a trade.

Miller makes STL better....we'd get Halak ++

Not according to St Louis fans who feel Miller is worth very little and say that they have three goaltenders.

To me, if you have three, you have none, kind of like what they say about quarterbacks in the NFL.

Bishop = not that young, has proven nothing.

Miller = can play 70+ games per season, over 250 wins, Vezina trophy....

Is he my favorite player or the best tender ever? No. But you guys get into this ridiculous competition to see who can be the most negative. If you can paint the best doomsday picture of the franchise, it somehow proves you are the biggest fan. Miller is not going to bring us some huge multi-player and picks haul in a trade. But he's worth more than Ben Bishop. Sheesh

St Louis plays a good defensive game... But their goalies are average, just like Crawford
