7+6=13

To think anyone knows Terry Pegula is laughable. It appears he's a guy that keeps a low profile. His daughter is one of the best women's tennis players in the world and to my knowledge I've never seen him. Yet posters know what he's all about, what he's thinking and how he feels about the Sabres?

We've never tried trading our best players.

That's not what happened.

You didn't see the awful turn over?

Very nice Power

Skinner isn't a defensive forward, it's not his game. He's not a large man and he plays small. He's a goal scorer and we traded for him because we desperately needed goals. He's produced at my expectation, except for under Krueger. I'm not hating a guy for that.

I'm for the Sabres doing the opposite of most things you say.

Our captain never quits

Sneaky Jeff

Thatta baby

What unison. Crisp passes, battling for pucks, back end finding passing lanes, in and out passing, creative angles. This is gorgeous.

Robinson once again does several things to like.

Yes Skinner

Beautiful answer

Whoa, what a nutty start

I remember several posters showing stats on our winning percentage when Samuelsson played. I didn't learn the lesson. With Byram we're just playing better. What a massive difference adding a capable defender makes.

Clifton lays the wood

UPL is playing like a total stud

You mean the ones he fired, yet were still under contract. You responded to my post and said keep believing or some junk, so you definitely fired the first shot. You're also free in this country to deny truths.

We just said the same exact thing, yet you said cmon man.

Why are you able to say "that's my opinion" but shoot down mine? You have no proof he abandoned the Sabres. He's actually done quite a bit to make the franchise better. It hasn't ultimately worked but it's actually quite ridiculous to think he hasn't done anything.

I don't have proof but I think it makes sense he'd like both teams to win.

That press conference was brutal. It's no wonder we play exactly how he talks.

I'm certainly willing to get disappointed but it's not because of believing in something that isn't possible. I don't have a ton of faith for obvious reasons but the opportunity is there. So you believe Pegula bought the Sabres for that reason, with no proof, and I need to check myself?

No doubt, we're all frustrated. Especially since a little bit of hope seeped in because of last years offensive output. We are an embarrassment and no one likes to be embarrassed. The thing we differ on is, I do think Pegula cares. I mean even from a business standpoint, he would. I'm pretty sure, he'd much rather win. What's the upside for him to not care, especially if it's a hobby. This can turn around my friend. It's critical that the next set of decisions are made correctly. We have talent, cap and prospects.
