Why didn't Ruff pull Miller while they had it down deep? Instead he waited for the puck to come out and had Miller skate off when they were carrying it in.

Anyone?
Maybe a mis-communication. Or Miller could have had his doubts too. Goalies sometime have some discretion.
Grigorenko anyone?? **** this season. Nearly 50 games of misery, we deserve a top pick out of it. If they Surge into 10th in the east I'll be dissapointed.

Got ya. I only question it because earlier this year Ruff had the same option to pull Miller while the puck was in deep, but didn't. Eventually there was a whistle and instead of having Miller wait at the top of the circle he was pulled. An EN goal ensued within about 5 seconds.
After that sequence I made up my mind that Ruff had to go.
Ruff called Vanek's penalty midway in the third "selfish" and said it "killed us." Interesting choice of words to describe a hooking penalty. Golly gee, I hope I'm not taking Lindy's words out of context.
You have to wonder how many straws are left in the Ruff-Vanek relationship.
