Two great things the Pegulas have done, this week.

Jerseys and McDermott.

They are capable of quality.

I'm optimistic that Adams is smart enough to realize he's not the best talent evaluator in the room and that he hires some intelligent, progressive people to help him.

Member that time all of you walked into your professional job and knew exactly what to do, and how to do it really well, your first day? Month? Year?

He. Hired. Losers.

He did. Terry. Terry hired them. He hired the losers, the backstabbers, the inepts. All of them.

To take zero blame is the most (frank)ing millennial thing you've said on here since (frank)ing yesterday.

I'm not telling you that it's Terry's fault that they failed. I'm telling you that since Terry didn't make the right decision, he made the wrong decision. He did.

They had there chance, but she thought she knew more than someone with 40yrs of Hockey experience.

They will never, ever, explain away "we know more than the fans." And then (frank)ing pivot and fire him.

That one still stings. Just short sighted nonsense. You make that hire happen, period!!!

But. I’ll take fancy jerseys. An extended McD, as two baby steps to success.

Edit: baby steps...

So its their fault for hiring the top rated coaches and gms ?...

I can go back to all these people they hired from old blogs I can guarantee you none of you said one bad thing ...


All they have done is try to get Allstars for this team like Stamkos, Brad richards, Tavares..

Hell If they didn't Interfere with the Jack eichel negotiations he would be rfa likey asking for 11m -12

Nah, it's not.

They should have done this years ago. Listening to the fans for a material product the fans are going to purchase is exactly what they should have done.

It will certainly bring in an influx of cash, no doubt, but it wasn't some veiled move to install a bigger engine on the yacht.

Providing a universally praised jersey to a fanbase clamoring for it for years is what I would call goodwill and, god forbid, listening.

I have seen the good things they have done for Buffalo and OP, but they need a buffer between them and there Hockey Team. And they had a decent chance for that, and they blew it. It actually might surprise them what money they could make when they play a few rnds of playoff hockey.

Dude, it doesn't (frank)ing matter what we said. It's beyond insignificant. If he's reading Hockeybuzz to make his hires and trades, he should be fired into the (frank)ing sun. For Christ sakes. He signed off. If an engineer signs a set of plans and that design fails, it's on the engineer.

Terry makes the bed, and Terry lies in the bed. For better or worse.

How are you not soaking this up. It's his hires. What other people say is beyond irrelevant.

I have no doubt in my mind they want quality hockey like we do. If
THEY do not make a decent hire (fingers crossed for Ralph and Kevin), then we'll be wasting more years in the basement, and Jack will finally demand to leave.

All because TERRY couldn't HIRE the RIGHT (frank)ING PEOPLE.

Let them do their own thing for the first time before you judge them

Again, you are again reference people that Terry chose to hire.

Every comment, the end result is this, and only this:

Terry chose them.

This....

1- Hire a president. A real, experienced, Bona fide, President

2- set the budget and expectations.

3- sit in the owner suite or on the yacht and watch your team.

4- profit or break even at least...

So you didn't want them steeping in and making sure Jack eichel and Skinner are signed long term ....

Just imagine Jack eichel being an RFA this year think about it
