Dosent seem like enough we would have to add a young piece in there going back to them. Can pretty much eliminate Miller going to the Isles as they most likey wont make the playoffs so a rental Miller would be pointless to them. Maybe Ehrhoff, Foligno, Grigorenko

Good point...
Unless Miller would agree to an extension as part of the deal

We are going to be screwed when it comes to Miller, his "no trade list" and most team not needing him will hold us back.

I still have hopes a couple contenders will want to upgrade their goalies
Hopefully Miller kills it again at the Olympics & that convinces someone to bite

Washington is looking like a real possibility for Miller now. Holtby as been inconsistent all season.

I hope myers gets a hanging nail just for that statement

I can't do it any more with them. It's too frustrating to watch.
The Cheifs go from 2-14 to 11-3 this season, yet we have had 10 straight losing seasons. This city deserves a new franchise. A new team. I'm so annoyed with them

Too bad they already traded Forseberg...
Still can't believe they did that!

What did Myers say?

Also, if the Bills leave, the NFL is never coming back here. Buffalo hasn't had the characteristics of an NFL market, other than a long standing fanbase, in a long, long time.

the longer miller stays here, the lesser the chance he is moved, I am at the point where i would be shocked if he was moved.

I think he meant that as in Myers is his favourite player so he hopes he gets injured for saying the Bills should move to England.

It's not such a bad idea, maybe they're better off playing the real version of football

Really?
I think he'll be moved after the Olympics, and before the deadline...
By then Miller will have put on another great performance backstopping the USA, and there will be a few teams that want to upgrade their inconsistent goaltending, thinking that Miller could be the missing piece to a Cup
How many teams truly think that will determine how much we get, but I think it'll be a good return. Something along the lines of a 1st and a prospect

Im just looking at the past, teams in playoff spots this late in the season do not trade for a goalie. Teams that suck, do not trade for a goalie rental.

Sabres mishandled this situation IMO, and if Miller doesnt get traded, a big part of that blame is going to have to go to LaFontaine.

Washington should want him. He could make them a contender. Holtby has been way too inconsistent and is still pretty young.

I said after Washington played their 5th game, the sabres should be on the phone with them for Miller. I just dont see it happening anymore. I hope I am wrong though.

I kind of agree,
But I think what you're forgetting is that Goalies as good as Miller are RARELY available mid-season
Miller (IMO) is still a top5 goalie in the league
And if he was on a good team, would prob put up stats like his Vezina year again

All we need to trade him, is for a playoff team with inconsistent goaltending to see Miller shine in the Olympics and think he can be the missing piece that can take th from contender to Cup champ

I def think there will be at least one
Hopefully there's a few,
Bc then we can let them bid against each other and get a better return

I think we'll def be able to move him
Only question in my mind is what return we will get
