Miller is the one player on the team that I’m not sure we’ve seen his full potential. I think we know what we have with guys like Roy, Pommer, and Vanek. But Miller is being paid franchise goalie money. He’s also the face of the franchise. Miller’s numbers are good, but in order for the Sabres to take the next step from just making the playoffs, to being a top 10 team he has to become elite.
Last year, Miller let in some soft goals. Now don’t get me wrong, all great goalies let in softies, but what makes them great is they forget about them. Miller doesn’t. There were too many games last year where Miller lost focus. And when Miller loses focus, the team loses. This season Miller needs to take the team under his wing, he has to have the mentality that he’s the backbone of the team. That’s where he should start his focus.
