also fine, just people were inking him in their projected lineups on the 2nd pair and i thought that was a little crazy

Yeah I agree. Not sure why we would gift him a spot. Only guys I know should be here next year is Dahlin, Joker and Borgen. Everyone else is a ? for their own reasons.

I think Miller will be in the HOF because of his American records.

His career was long but rather pedestrian for what is considered a great goalie.

Don't comp him to Hasek, Roy, Brodeur and Belfour.

I liked Miller. I thought he played the game hard and brought a unique intensity.

- TheSabresTaco


he was also the face of america's best olympic run in the modern game

one vezina season, maybe 2 good seasons, a good olympic run, and an otherwise very average career should not = HOF but i won't lose sleep over it

An average career is to become arguably the greatest American goalie of all-time????? To get a vezina??? To be one of the greatest goalies of your generation.... That's average??????

That's kind of the point I was trying to raise. He's not Dom, but he was the face of American hockey a decade ago. I'm lukewarm at best on caring about his induction, but as far as being an American goalie, I think he gets in because of his nationality.

sorry, let me rephrase

he had a bunch of average seasons, one incredible season, a couple good seasons and an epic olympic run

that is a good career, not an average career. but if that gets in the hall of fame then blehhh

I dont like the point about him being the winningest American as qualification for the HOF. I'm the best golfer in my family and I'm a lousy golfer. It's irrelevant to me

Normally I like their comps, but how did they hold up this past season? I wonder if they adjusted their numbers for Pandemic.

I think I may sub to them over the offseason.

Could not care less about the HOF. The man had a great career. Not average.

They have the flat cap factored in.

It sounds incredibly partial, but I bet it holds significant weight to the HOF voters.

Eric Staal - 16gp, 2 goals, 0 assists, -11

Woof

- jcragcrumple



Maybe someone could write a blog on how we win and lose Sabres trades.

Ror - for too much
Ror - for too little

Scandella for ennis and foligno
Scandella for a 4th
Scandella for a 2nd a week later.

I'd say we're 1-1 on the staal trade.

I'd go as far as : 0-1-1
