The only saving grace that might come from this is that the "Ralph for President" brigade gets closer to its wish and he has more control over the roster top to bottom. I don't have confidence, but if this is truly Adams' show, or the Pegulas' show, this team is screwed.

Are you kidding me?

This whole thing is all about that Botterill was trying to build a team with no expense spared but the Pegula's wanted him to listen to the business side

You know the side that has had just as much screw ups as the on ice piece

They are both so defensive about this hire. I think if you read between the lines:

Yes man and on the payroll for cheap.

Can't wait to see what his contract says.

Except McDermott and Beane have both said hands off.

And reports are McDermott is concerned the PSE culture is going to ruin his, but facts and stuff.

What a great job in putting that team together that WOMAN did. And she and Terry say how much they can spend, how big the depts can be, how much they can spend for each, they are in the draft room so which is more than you are basing your statements.

Maybe the Sabres could take a Rachel Phelps style of motivation with Kim, and that could make them a good team...

From the Periscope feed:

@Alf0461Why didn’t you hire Mike Grier as GM? They didn’t even interview a minority candidate


- buffalofan19

If it weren't for the other PSE crap to come out earlier this year, I would get it. They have beefed up their scouting staff, their coaching staff, and every other staff, and had virtually zero results. There is a quality over quantity argument to be made. However, nothing they have said in forever, suggests they will get the quality part right.
