Miller to start on Friday vs Leafs

He's baaaaaaaaaa-aaaaaaaaaaack.

Wow...that might change everything. :****:

Don't know that at this point he'll be able to make a big difference. If he was coming back with 20 games left, well then forget about it, but by the time he suits up, Buffalo will have what, 8 games left? Give him a game or two to shake the rust, so figure he'll be regular ol Miller for 6 games. Yikes, I retract my first statement. Buffalo could finish very strong

Yeah, all they need is "regular Miller" for 6 games and they could be in instead of us if Montreal continues to falter.

Probably too late to make a difference to Buffalo. Even with Miller in the lineup they were never more than a middle-of-the-pack team. Heck, if the Sens could play middle-of-the-pack the first three months they'd be in a playoff position now.

Would they play him back-to-back so he can face the Habs on Saturday?
