Hjalmarsson's first game back from suspension will be....

Saturday's game in Chicago vs. the Sabres.

WILL there be any retaliation by the Sabres for the hit on Pominville?

My prediction: NO. Not at all.

A token fight.
Kaleta flying around like normal.

There will be some retaliation. But it's not going to be the blood bath that some fans are predicting or hoping for. The Sabres are going to want the 2 points more, especially now that they are on a 2-game losing streak.

I think there will be but I don't think it's going to be abject headhunting. A clean, hard, gnarly hit by Kaleta will spark a brawl, and that may lead to fisticuffs, but I doubt the Sabres will go the Ducks route right off the bat.

As my football coach taught - The best retaliation is beating the snot out of your opponent on the scoreboard.

Of course, to do so, it's necessary to establish a physical presence, without stupidity.

Stupid would be fun, but stupid.

Miller talked about what kind of retaliation to expect in the Chicago game:

What I take away from what Miller said is that blatant retaliation or dirty shit isn't cool but if it happens in a clean hit manner during game play so be it. Also I like him saying that the team needs to focus on their play and essentially not sucking before they can go get some revenge.
