Miller becomes a playoff blogger
Give a welcome to the world of blogging ... to none other than Ryan Miller!
The Sabres goaltender doesn't have much to do in April and May this year so he's going to be blogging through the playoffs on Maxim.com. I'll give you the link to his blog here -- but don't ask for any other Maxim links!
Miller's latest post, entered Wednesday morning, talks about how he's in Chicago visiting his girlfriend and hasn't seen too many games. But he does weigh in on the Sean Avery controversy: "The NHL weighed in and will now interpret any actions like that as interference. Ya think? It is like when a kid is trying to annoy someone by getting as close as they can without actually touching them…the whole time yelling "I'm not touching you…I'm not touching you!"
In his first installment, Miller talked about driving back to East Lansing, Mich. from Buffalo last week and included this nugget: "I got to hang with my godson, Riley, for the first time in eight months. We played a little basement hockey… the only hockey I will be playing for a few months." So that apparently answers any lingering questions some of you have had about him possibly playing for Team USA in the World Championships.
Miller is also doing weekly radio segments for Maxim on Wednesdays at 11 a.m. on Sirius 108.

After his performance this year, Ryan shouldn't be asking for outrageous $$. We all know he will improve his play next year so, if he and the Sabres can't work out a deal, he can grab all the $$ he can get from another team ( after his comment about Chicago, will he go to
Detroit or Chicago?)

"Chicago is my favorite city when the weather starts to get warm." -Ryan Miller
Over/Under on percentage of pessimistic Sabres fans who will interpret that comment to mean he will be playing for the Blackhawks after next season: 97.5%
