You have all the info. you need to find the video in question.

Rather than thinking, and asking me to give you a link, why not find the link, watch the lengthy videos like I did and state your case with something behind it besides reflexive animus (who never recovered from Johnny's OD)? Here, let me give you Terry's addy. I have it from when I sent him that Christmas card. You send him the pic and tell him he was wrong to say he's a football guy, there just happened to be a hockey team for sale first.

Let's not overthink. The beginning of the end was even before Terry cried. After the intro presser he went over to the Buffalo News editorial board and told them he had ALREADY rejected Darcy's plan. Instead of trusting the GM who had done a very good job on skintight budgets to take advantage of more resources in his own time and way, he forced his will. He meddled. Welcome Ville Leino and all the rest. The rest is history.

You said it all.

I don't have any data, but I have a hard time believing the second sentence.

I'm not sure who's going to eat more crow when the franchise roars back to life after being sold — you or TaroT after the Politburo Fan Council applauds in unison to rubber-stamp the transaction.

You let your hockey czar figure out how to achieve the mission. While I don't endorse meddling, there's no way a new owner would or should hire someone who's fine with the glacier-like pace of returning NHL hockey to Buffalo. Especially the word grifter. Pretend not to see the franchise GOAT, cry a little, build a rink on top of a donut shop and move right along to the Bills. "I'm really a football guy." Someone wake Merriam and Webster up, assuming it was two people.

Owners don't run franchises. You get what you deserve.

(Presumably it can't come until after the season.)

The reaction icons fail. We need a bulging ***** one.

You can freak out with me when rebuilding through the draft actually works.

Pullyar.

I wanted to like this post, but the second half of it is over the line "Created" is the right verb.

For sale and not "rebuilding."

I never thought love was behind the meddling. I know you love the Sabres and I know you wouldn't behave like Terry if you owned the team. This isn't that complicated.

So he restores dilapidated things? You don't say.

I think I missed the first time.

No, we don't. In fact I see plenty of evidence to the contrary.

Ted Black listened. He answered my emails, anyway.

I don't think cutting a two-goal lead to one gets a team "right back in it." You were already in the game. Cutting a three-goal lead to two qualifies.

Hull's foot never touched the crease.

The existence of playoffs at that time seems sure. Then again Russia's nuclear force was just put on high alert.

It's like seeing back to the big bang. The light just arrived here. Of course, I was there!

Tumor? Here's to a speedy and full recovery.

Chyeah. This is at least the second time of late that DG had that deer in the headlights response.
