The video montage that honors Team USA most valuable player Ryan Miller before the Buffalo Sabres game tonight in HSBC Arena will be missing one thing: Highlights of his play during the Vancouver Olympics.

A Sabres spokesman said NBC owns all Olympic rights and the team is prohibited from airing any of the highlights of Miller's play during the six-games he played in Vancouver.

CBS late-night host David Letterman had some fun at NBC's expense Tuesday night when men's figure skating champion Evan Lysacek appeared. Letterman's show -- which also is prohibited from carrying Olympic footage -- used simple drawings of stick figures to depict Lysacek's performance in the Olympics.
