Retool? I’ve only said it 100000 times

There are ways to do this without giving up the next 3+ years.

This is the same thing buffalo did when danny and Drury left it was horrible

No no Buffalo is just very unlucky.

It has nothing to do with them.

They chose to NOT SELL TICKETS. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

Hearing Mike Schopp say

"We might be looking at the end of the franchise" makes me very sad.

It truly feels cataclysmic. People are starved for entertainment in a pandemic and no one gave a poop about the Sabres.

Hell, I'll be totally honest: I'm next in line for the Sabres blogger job and I'm more excited to see the BJs at Sahlen Field than I would be about Sabres tickets (and I really don't give a poop about baseball). This straight up (frank)ing sucks. It sucks.

I love the Sabres but it's a toxic relationship

I'm loyal to the emblem but God Almighty do I (frank)ing despise everything that they are. I think I would honestly spit on the Pegulas if I ever came across them again. What a (frank)ing disgrace.

I guess they're just unlucky that they hire awful people and treat their franchise players poorly. (frank)ing get real.

Me too but what they've done is disgraceful.

People were so bored during the pandemic that they literally just hung out in Home Depot but they can't give tickets away.

It's just (frank)ing sad. It's sad

Imagine if the Pegulas didn't hire Beane and McDermott

Think they would have been ran out of town yet?

Pegulas step one should be to expand the front office and surround Adams with experienced advisors. Then they should just go sailing and let the hockey ops pros chart the best course forward for the Sabres.
As great a choice for GM as Zito was, the most important thing the Panthers owner did was open up the wallet and brought in a lot of experienced and knowledgeable “assistant”, “associate”, “or special advisor to the” GMs. Then Mr Viola goes back to focusing on his racehorses and the Kentucky Derby. No more interference from him since the debacle year when Gallant was canned (cabbed?).

This I agree with but even if Reinhart is locked up he wants out.
- ImThatGuy

this also falls on upper management and owners


6 years in the nhl and the team does not even have meaningful regular season games with 2 weeks left, let alone playoffs

That’s basically what I said earlier

Hire a very well respected “hockey guy” as president and during that welcome presser. The pegulas openly say they are hands off

Brutal.

They haven't won a playoff series since I've been a legal adult. The last time they were in a playoff game, I couldn't legally buy a beer.
