I love these posts where someone says Ryan Miller or RM and doesn't give a reason. All I want is a reason. Has anyone seen the Rangers defense? I mean, the defense is playing better than the talent but it's not very good. It can be argued that Lundqvist is the MVP of the Rangers, without him, they'd be .500 at best, even with Jagr and Prucha. Without Miller Biron had what 13 straight wins? I'm not saying Lundqvist will be better, but jesus, there's nothing more frustrating than having a thread for discussion and you get "Ryan Miller". Absolutely no answer as to why. Can this be elaborated? Just like someone called him a flash in the pan. This is ridiculous. If you make claims back them up. I didn't really have too good of an argument and that's why I'm saying that I don't know the answer, I do know who's more valuable this year. If I did have an answer I'd back it up instead of "Ryan Miller", um well, um, I guess it's because he's um, not playing for the Rangers, and um that's about it. Oh and um, he doesn't look flashy all the time when making saves, so um I'll take Miller. Plus Miller is much easier to pronounce. How about some credibility?
Edit: It's ridiculous there are even more people than I thought that picked Miller (in fact pretty much everyone that isn't a Rangers fan and Rangers fans had some explanations, what a novel idea).
It's ridiculous Lundqvist carried his team and is the only reason they are where they are. Yet this is practically a shutout for Miller. For some reason I think people think that as I said because Lundqvist doesn't do cartwheels on the ice and jump around like a slinky he doesn't have much of an upside or something. Why doesn't someone watch a game (and of course there are exceptions). Once again, even though this sounds like I'm saying he'll be better, I don't know that. My only point is, I don't know why it's so skewed towards Miller, honestly. Seriously, if I didn't know any better, I'd pull the North American bias card, but I know better, or at least hope I wouldn't have to use that card. (Of course if he was Lehtonen and was a high first round pick, that card would useless).
