It's a Ryan Miller thread, better get the kid gloves out!

Let's go bitch at Vanek for thirty pages for dropping one f-bomb.

I'm glad some people are realistic enough to harp on Miller, deserved or not. He's always gotten pedestal treatment.


YA totally agree with you. He's a great goalie. But some of the goals that he's let in the last few games a top NHL netminder should be able to save those.

Shit happens, play the game and see how shit happens.

Every goalie, elite or not, can have those games where shit goes in on them and bad goalies have those days where they are stopping everything.

As I said in the GDT, the call on Rivet was horseshit. The Bruins player was holding onto Rivet's stick like it was the last fucking raft on the Titanic.

I think Miller is a top three goaltender in the NHL, just sick of Paul Hamilton going to bat for him after every game and WGR censoring callers that want to gripe about him.

Your singling out that one game. Like I said before not in every game he faces a decent amount of good shots. I'm just saying SV% and GAA at this point are not great things to look at to give Miller the benefit of the doubt. If you can exempt Wins this early on this season, you can do the same with SV% and GAA. Plus Ottawa and Toronto both have starting goalies with pretty bad SV% and GAA's and yet they are performing at a pretty good level.

I singled out the Montreal game as more of a joke; however, my point still stands. You speak as if we haven't been watching the games (or at least you haven't). I've watched all of the games except for the second loss to Tampa Bay and I don't think Miller has had it easy (or Enroth for that matter). He might have had an easy night against Florida, but he got a shutout so I'll forgive him there.

I never said anything about exempting wins early in a season?? I just said that save percentage is a better stat to judge a goalie by. Like I said, if a goalie is on a shitty team, you can still tell if he's good enough by his save percentage (Luongo on Florida).

By the way, Reimer's stats aren't bad.
