‘The Sabres, who just hosted the World Junior Championship and have close ties to USA Hockey, released the following statement from owners Terry and Kim Pegula: “When we heard of JJ’s passing, we are reminded of what an enjoyable person he was to be around, and also what he meant to USA Hockey and hockey worldwide. We should all strive to do our jobs and treat people as JJ did. Jim Johannson, you have moved on, but you will not be forgotten. We will miss you.”’
