The Buffalo Sabres will play on the road against the St. Louis Blues on Thursday night but they wont be seeing Ryan Miller in the opposing goal. The Blues said on Wednesday that Brian Elliott will get the start against the Sabres. Miller was asked if he was disappointed about head coach Ken Hitchcocks decision to have him sit out the game against the team that traded him on Feb. 28. "There will be a lot of time to worry about that later," Miller told media after practice. "Its pretty fresh leaving that situation, so maybe its just a nice little break." Miller said hes looking forward to having his former teammates in town, but admits it will be strange to compete against them. "Its a group of guys that I played with for a number of years and it will be a little bit different. Theyre all great guys and guys I count as friends and Im looking forward to seeing them," said Miller. Hitchcock said with seven games left on the regular season schedule, he has talked to both Elliott and Miller about who will play which games down the stretch. "We want to make sure both guys get what they need," explained Hitchcock. St. Louis has 109 points, three more than the Anaheim Ducks and four ahead of the San Jose Sharks as the clubs chase the top seed in the Western Conference. Coach Handbags Black Friday UK .

Brandon Jennings hit a 3 to get Detroit within 94-93 before George scored, forced a turnover and West hit a jumper to give the Pacers a 98-93 lead with 1:35 left to play. "We were locked in really early in this game," George said. "They made a late push when we were up a good eight points, they made a pretty good push. But I felt our guys were locked in throughout this whole game." Georges two free throws with 8:54 left in the third gave Indiana a 58-50 lead.
