The point that I think is important is that Ruff is under contract for three years, which, in Kelley's and my mind, the reason he has the ability to assert his authority effectively.
I like Lindy's approach. It sends an important message to the team that noone is superior to anybody else and that all need to contribute to make the team successful...much like the message that was sent to the Stars when Modano was benched for the 3rd back in Buffalo. It's worked in the past and it continues to work now (i.e. Max).
It was the politically correct response, but a source told ESPN.com on Friday that Satan -- who signed a two-year contract after missing most of training camp -- was angered by the public rebuke and is toying with the idea of asking for a trade.
And to tell you the truth, I wouldn't shed any tears if Miro got dealt. There's no denying that when he's on his game, he's a vital part of this team. But I really think the return could actually improve the club. I bet we land a legit top 6 winger + a mean d man.

I wouldn't mind seeing Satan go, either. I think losing Satan and adding a decent winger and tough defenseman would be far better for the Sabres than having Satan make errant passes and skate around doing nothing all year.
patience
its 15 games into the season and people want to waive goodbye to the only sure thing on the sabres the past 5 years?
c'mon you all know that miro is as streaky as they come, but the end result is always the same
and just to comment on miro "not being the same since he lost the C", i was NOT in favor of taking the c from satan earlier in the month and i think it has had some effect on his pride and psyche- he is used to being the go-to guy and the offensive centerpiece, and now he has to share his toys
but the fact remains, this happens almost every year- miro hits a cold streak, people point their finger, miro still scores 70 points
