‘The bottom line there is this. If you wanted your GM to do something, he did. Of course we want it to work. That should go without saying. We just have no way of knowing how these things will turn out and to a degree, neither do they. This isn’t to take them off the hook. Eventually, if enough of your moves don’t work out you shouldn’t get to keep doing the job. And I think we all know where the Sabres stand in that regard.’
