His "shaking your head" statement just kind of screams "oh no, I'm really masculine and don't want a woman involved in sports management." Who is to say she isn't really well-versed in the operations of this hockey team and isn't having a positive impact?
Another possibility — and I'll refute my own opinion from earlier, but only because I was thinking of all this in the shower just now — is that the head-shaking would result from not Kim's presence but Terry's absence.
-
By the way, Korab, this is what turns me on — that, and your mom wearing just a slug.
Not unfair.
I'd love to know if Kim's involvement changed at some point, or if she was sitting on meetings from the outset. Maybe Terry's not well, who knows.
I'd also like to know the motivation of Bucky's source.
One more thing. Anyone else remember Terry on Day One talking about how he still has a family in Florida, a daughter trying to break into pro tennis, etc. and he wouldn't be able to be in Buffalo all the time. When and why did that change? Why do the Pegulas even feel the need to be hovering over everything all the time?
Wow, this story has everything! Sex, sexism, dress shields, a corrupt judge, and meddling, meddling, meddling. When I read this subject line, poppa hit the jackpot!!!!
-
That and I'm waiting for the inevitable sexism complaints that we are going to hear because of this one.
Of course it's sexist. Terry's involvement never had Bucky suggesting people would be shaking their heads. We're all a product of where and when we grew up. Bucky's a South Buffalo dude out of the 70s.
Quite a mysogynistic tone here. Not cleaning the building but sitting in on men's meetings. Oh-no.
Anyway, she had a pretty good draft and free agency period. :P
Well, that tone was set from the outset by the Pegulas themselves, when Kim was designated to be the interior designer.

Shield licking.

The chick only ate 34 in 10 minutes. That surprises me. Weak. And they think they're strong, giving birth and all. Pshaw.

My grill just ###### the bed! Crack where the gas comes into the grill is shooting a 2 foot flame. Bummer!
Edit: and I don't have time to set up my portable Weber before work. Another bummer.
Sometimes I think I'm dyslexic.
-
Then it's settled; the only teams that will finish in the bottom 5 this year are the Sabres and Islanders.
You still grumpy? You're too young to be like this!
-
It's a good fit - last year Fox Sports deemed the Coyotes one of the 10 worst sports franchises - so they deserve the guy who made the Leino deal a reality
Pegula's buying he Coyotes too?

I thought GoDD was your doctor?
He was, until the elephantiasis misdiagnosis.

I went in for the my first complete adult checkup since, uh, ever (went to a doc in a hurry back in 08 for heart palpitations and anxiety and ended up having to have a brain MRI with contrast; never figured that one out; plus the doctor reading it ended up being out of network and I got billed a small fortune; I swore off doctors, until now). I feel pretty good but made the mistake of honestly filling out the questionnaire and volunteering some information, so now I have orders for bloodwork; an echocardiogram; consultation with a surgeon for colonoscopy, inguinal hernia surgery (and they're twins!) and an enlarging mole on my foot; and a sleep study!
I shouldn't complain. Maybe I'll get some peace of mind, quit being so neurotic and stop acting as my own physician (University of Google).

Is there any way the NHL could conduct the lottery without arousing suspicion? I'm serious. Would cloistered nuns using their bingo ball cage be enough to satisfy people?
-
The best example to point at each time conspiracy theories pop up for the NHL:
The New York Rangers were tied for the highest odds of winning the lottery for Sydney Crosby. Where did he wind up? Pittsburgh.
So were the Sabres.
-
A poll wouldn't be a bad idea.
That's wh... never mind, too easy.
-
Looking at the whole vibe of that franchise, they could have one more good tank in them before things pick up in Brooklyn. Inexplicably, Capuano is still the coach and Snow is still the GM. Wang is looking to sell, but everything seems to be status quo for the last season in the Coliseum. Losing is just entrenched there. They annually go into a November funk that's something to behold.

Most violent moment of his life...
Darcy: Almost — almost! — stuck his finger in the video replay official's chest in Philly after No Goal II
Murray: Shot a man in Chicoutimi, just to watch him die
Advantage: Uhhhh, Murray

One success story, although seemingly not exactly what Rick has:
-
I was told this morning that I was "turned on" by the announcement that Rick has cancer. I reported the post. It's still there.
Would any of the moderators care to explain why it wasn't worthy of deletion?
-
that's it. we're getting the band back together. and the band has a new name.
Only if Kevin James is the drummer.

I've always viewed the LaFontaine trade as a good trade, but not a great trade. Fun fact. LaFontaine scored 385 points as a Sabre, and 447 total NHL points, after the trade to Buffalo. Turgeon scored 1,004 NHL Points after the trade to the NYI.
LaFontaine is iconic. He was expensive.
Oops, just saw PA's comment. Same sentiment.
Yes. I also think there was an intangible quality to the trade for Buffalo. The franchise was in doldrums that wouldn't be seen again until The Core, and LaFontaine was exactly what was needed. The Knoxes were trying to get a new arena built, and suddenly the Sabres were back on the map.

Eleven mentioned it in one of these threads, so there's at least two of us! And since he's actively vying for the title of Internet king, I figure he counts as the board :P
Oh, so Eleven is the one stirring this up? Not a surprise!
I've never questioned Pegula's financial commitment. Anyway, would today be the day for recrimina-she-owns against Pegula's critics? Did he win something yesterday?
Actually, if any posters should be hung in effigy, it's those who didn't want Tim Murray (or a Tim Murray) on day one of Pegula's ownership.
-
Let's say fortune smiles on us and the Islanders finish last and/or win the lottery and McDavid/Eichel turn into everything they're hyped to be. Does this go down as the greatest trade in franchise history? It has to be top-3 (Hasek,LaFontaine), right?
Turgeon scored over 500 goals and had a long, fantastic career. That was a pretty even hockey trade. Some of Darcy's heists in the early days of his tenure — Wilson for Warrener and a pick that turned into Miller; Grosek for Gilmour and Dumont — would rank ahead of OohLaLa4LaLa.

After puking my guts out, flat on my back, I' m not going to tolerate looking at poor choices in window treatments and crown moldings.
I usually only laugh at my own posts, but that got me chuckling.
-
The board is still eagerly awaiting you admitting to being wrong about Pegula's spending and financial commitment to the team.
Wrong about how Terry spent during the summer of 2011? What are you driving at?
-
So what you're saying is Pegula meddled, right? ;)
Weak, weak sauce.
The "meddling" Kim Pegula???

Define "role." Active, participating, "meddling" owner. Is that OK?
