‘”Saturday I was there when the fans were out in the plaza. I walked around, I talked to people, and to be honest, thanked them because the passion is there. We all understand that we’re fortunate to have such a passionate fanbase. We get it, we understand where they’re at. Obviously I’m in a unique position being from here and growing up going to the Aud, and Gilbert Perreault was my guy. I totally understand how engrained this passion is in the community, and I need to make sure everybody understands that no body has invested more into this team and into this community than Terry and Kim Pegula. They’re completely engaged, they understand the frustration, they share in it. We’re all in this together. That’s the message from Terry and Kim down through the organization is we’re all a piece of the puzzle, including fans, players, the front office, it all has to work together. That’s been the message.”‘
