I'm blaming Miller for this one. Not attacking him, just saying that he fucked up and let in TWO pretty soft goals. |

You can't argue that this is one of Miller's worser games, but like always, he'll bounce back. He seemed to be on vacation in this one. The rest of the team joined him in the second period. |

What happened to the Miller that challenged shooters on breakaways? it hit his skate from behind the net. it was a pass out front and he left the post as he should and it was just a terrible bounce. the breakaway, shit he got a piece of it, still went in. shit happens. party naked. |

What happened to the Miller that challenged shooters on breakaways? Yeah, that breakaway he let Ryan freaking Malone beat him. He seemed to be in the crease for that whole sequence. Malone had his spot picked and hit it. |

Another game they lose and people blame miller. It's so annoying. How about blame ruff for not coming up with a better scheme to break the 1-3-1?? |

I'm placing a lot of tonight on Myers. He's looked soft as smashed potatoes as of late. The breakaway hurt so obviously Miller looked bad on that one, but when the steam left the team in from the 2nd on, that was all she wrote. Fuck it, put it behind and move on. We're not going to win each one, but I hope to FUCK the team remembers how they let this one get away on them. This is the kind of shit you keep on VHS and replay it until the tape breaks. |

I don't normally blame Miller after a loss, but come on. He let in a soft goal where he was hugging the post (for the second goal), which is a fundamental thing all goalies learn to do. That's his fault. On the Malone goal, he didn't even bother challenging the shooter, didn't come out of the net, and Malone found a spot because he had a great angle. Again, Miller was on vacation tonight. The rest of the team joined him in the second period. |

Plus, asking a team to break the 1-3-1 is a tough ordeal. Washington and Pittsburgh will tell you as much. Boston almost didn't do it in the playoffs last season. Guy Boucher has the Lightning execute that to it's full extent. |

Also blaming him for that goal on the breakaway is stupid as hell. Who tuned the puck over on that?? Tyler Myers. Plus |

I blame Lindy Ruff. I've always liked him but his talk about deserved ice time gets annoying. Gragnani shouldn't be on the team. Myers should be the 5th or 6th d-man. Enroth should have played tonight or last game. They're doing the same shit like last year at home. I usually don't do it but I blame the coach. |

I vote we fire everyone, trade the zamboni machines and take up cross-stitching. Yeah? |

He did nothing of the sort. Nothing spectacular, no emotion, nothing. |

Miller should've been better, a few bounces went against them too, but that's still a game they should've at least gotten a point out of. Very frustrating to blow a two goal lead...hints of last season's home woes and lead losing. |

But there were also a few guys who just decided to take some shifts off, which you can't do against a team that will act like a pimple on your ass like Tampon Bay. |

Miller had it, and it somehow trickled through. I don't blame Miller for our loss to TB on Saturday. I will blame him for this one, though. |
