The Sabres' Fan Mutiny Has Begun

[PerreaultForever]

I heard an interesting comment the other day on a podcast. I forget which one. I think it was Jeff Marek's. "No franchise can ever be successful if everybody is always agreeing with each other. You need dissenting voices for success." If that's true, and I think it might be, that right there might be the core of the Sabres problem brought on by Pegula's presence and the need to "agree". 

We need somebody in that room to say "that's stupid" once in a while.

It was quite lame that he decided to not give Fairburn a quote for hill attendance article last week. 

Especially since he gave an interview about the Bills appearing in a Hallmark Christmas Movie last week

I’m exceptionally happy to hear about how the biggest lesson they’ve learned this year after working at it for 5 years is that the games aren’t over when they get down by 1 goal 

That’s the biggest thing they’ve leaned this year, cap says

well you aren’t trying very hard, then

“We need to be better”

is infinitely more palatable than “we’ve matured through adversity, we don’t give up one goal down” as if thats some sort of f*cking accomplishment no less in year 5

After they said to a man goal this year was playoffs  

he can get all the way out of here with that jazz

And there’s not one post from me calling it out 

your premise was that he gets ridiculed either way. Not sure what I’m missing

There are plenty of people who get annoyed by his or Thompson’s more generic answers.

Those Winnipeg fellas are touchy, because they live in a big city, but it's in Canada and no one cares.

Is there more story there because he’s not even quoted in that tweet. He may very well have said exactly what you’re hoping for.
