Agree on the Pegulas have been willing to spend the money. I don't agree that they don't meddle. It's my opinion that these decade long hiring blunders had to do with the owners. Do they meddle in day to day operations? I don't know but this franchise is a joke and I hold only them responsible.

I'm amazed that we keep our guns pointed at coaches, general managers, etc. The guns should be aimed at the owners who have orchestrated this mess over the last ten years. What many of us believed to be the salvation of this franchise now should realize it was possibly the demise of it. I don't think the owners know anything about running a franchise. And please spare me about "well how about the Bills". That , first of all , is not the same as hockey and I think frankly that was more luck than smart. I think there's a slim chance for the Sabres to redeem this mess under the Pegulas. I hope as slim as it is by some wonder it happens. I started out a supporter of the owners and had high hopes but over this decade of blunders they have lost my confidence and support.

Agree with an exception. We can't say KA doesn't have authority to fire RK. That's speculation. Still the problem I believe is the one constant over the last decade. The owners.

Plan???.Did you say PLAN!!!!!!!!

Are the owners actually watching this scrap? Sad that when they purchased the team so much hope. They have been our worst owners even with all their money. Totally lost as owners.

Agree. At that time and ,in my opinion, goaltenders were not the biggest problem. Our defense and lack of offense overshadow our questionable goalie performance. This teams problems should not be placed on that one position. KA should have upgraded that position as far as backups go and for all anyone knows he tried to. I think he should have made a claim from waivers and that's on him.

At !east a second? I say third or fourth. He's a rental and his play significantly dropped off. Okay, I know he's playing on a bad team but I would love a second but ,in my opinion , not going to happen.

Still not very good. But improved.

Then your saying they play more defensive with Hutton? Wow, then they would be atrocious in front of Ulmark. Their bad defensively and bad offensively as well.

Defense in my opinion if you deduct empty net goals has been even worst. I guess we can agree that goalkeeper has been less than stellar.

Agree. This season is lost but if we enter next season without changes and I don't mean players then I think I'll be totally checked out and only hope for this team to be sold.

About the same?

Sorry but I agree with Adams assessment that we haven't been good in front of our goaltenders. I think we're so upset that he didn't upgrade the backup position that we're giving our even worst defense a free ride at times. Solid?? Now I wouldn't go that far. Since Ulmark went down I wouldn't say solid.

Actually I think they aren't worried about fans or losses because fan revenue now isn't risked. Now you can be upset but at the end of the day you're selling a product that no one can purchase.

I will be pleasantly surprised if a second for Staal is there. Friedman??? So,so for me.

Staal is a third or fourth round return.

It's official..... Pegulas are pretty dumb.

As much as I want RK and staff replaced it's really late in the game now. This season is lost so my hope is still for a head of hockey operations and replace coaching in off season. Frankly, without someone coming in as head of this pathetic hockey operation replacing coach may not be all that easy. We'd be going with young inexperienced or scraps of what's left in retreads. Our franchise and owners are the joke around the league at this point. Hockey Heaven has become Hockey Heaving.

5-2 where have I seen that before?

Changed my vote. Yes!

Please before even considering such a move find a POH operations to oversee this operation. I have zero confidence in our owners and KA just to green to oversee such drastic a move.

And cap it with Pegulas selling the team.

Agree in general but I think this year up to now has been lack of scoring a bad defense in front of our goal.

Agree, Thorny, but something has been wrong for whole year.

Wasn't that pathetic! Actually sick.
