Red Wings' goalie of the future?
Could former Michigan State goaltender Ryan Miller be the Red Wings' goalie of the future? That's the rumor that has been swirling around Buffalo since the Sabres have watched their best players leave through free agency or trades since winning the Presidents' Trophy in 2006-07. Miller, who grew up in East Lansing, will become an unrestricted free agent in July 2009.

Not a chance. Hell will freeze over before the Sabres lose Miller. The team traded Campbell because they knew they would need money for Miller. Miller will make top dollar and is going no where.

How can you call another team's goaltender the Wings' goalie of the future? He BELONGS to the Sabres! Ridiculous. Too many conspiracy journalists out there, not enough stories, so they make them up, and somehow still get paid. Unreal. As a Wings fan, I would not complain about having this guy as my tender, but c'mon, this "rumour" is a joke.

LOL, they start it with "Could", and that gives them a free pass to say anything they want.

They mentioned this on the radio last night during the game. Miller has stated in the past that he wouln'd mind playing for the Red Wings since he's from Michigan. He's also talked about staying in Buffalo and growing with that organization. It's possible he's just seeing if they make him an offer when when he becomes a free agent. The Wings have some good prospects like Jimmy Howard and Stefan Liv, so it's doubtfull they'd dish out that type of money of a positional they fell is already filled.

Huet anybody?He'll be the best goalie on the market come July.You know he'll get some excellent offers.He's still young to boot.I'd take a Huet over Miller any day of the week.Miller to me is over-rated.

Miller's save percentage the last 3 years.(.912%)Regular season.Play-off save percentage(.915%).Those are some pretty solid #'s.Huet's save percentage the last 3 years.(.920%)Regular season.Play-off save percentage(.929%).Those #'s are even more solid.I didnt realize Millers stats are solid.I apologize to all the Buffalo fans.He is not over-rated.I'd still take Huet over him though.

Huet has 4 playoff games to his credit, Miller has made 2 runs deep into the playoffs, experience - and a younger age - make Miller better than Huet...

The Red Wings will not get Ryan Miller for a few reasons. Number 1: The Sabres Will not give him up. And number 2: The wings wont be able to give a goaltender back.

Yeah,you got a point there go,Miller's been a part of 4 series wins in the last 2 years.Huet only has 6 games under his belt.Miller is 28 and Huet is 33.Dont forget that the years 33-36 are considered by many to be the goalies best years.So there really is no bad choice between the 2.Can i pick 2nd?

HEY! Boston you finally posted a picture! LOL I don't see Miller moving. Anything is possible though but to say he is the goalie of the Wing's future is rubbish! (damn Brits making me talk like them! LOL).

What's all this Goalie of the Future crud? Hasek is like 70 and he is still a great goalie. He is obviously immortal. However, I am a Sabres fan and if they lose Miller I will call for the blood of Darcy Regier (the Sabres GM). He said he plans on talking with Miller about a new contract this summer. It better happen!

i agree with bigdutchman, jimmy howard is the wings goalie of the future but and this is a big BUT, i think it depends on how competitive the wings are in a couple years , if they are still challenging and odds on favorites to win the cup in a couple of years then this could change there whole approach to eventually hand the reigns over to howard, which is the game plan now, they could make a pitch for him(miller} as well as anybody could but i think that will be predicated on how close they are to winning the cup! and just in case everyone missed it the wings beat the sabres 4-2 last nite and if it weren't for miller it would have been 8-2, this kids the real deal whoever gets him!
