    When season tickets dwindle to nothing they might wake up

    I'm shocked that so many pay to go to games. I've stopped watching on TV let alone pay. We don't even have decent broadcasting anymore. There's not one thing about this entire franchise that I feel positive about. Been around since the Knox family and this is the lowest this franchise has been in my opinion. That press conference confirmed it.

    Hard to say… 

    Pegula runs a billion dollar energy enterprise… and has replaced more than a few GMs and Coaches… so we know he can act decisively…

    Seems he’s still under the spell of Adam’s considerable charms… and not thinking like a decisive hockey owner…

    The fans and the Buffalo and Hockey Media are sending him signals he needs to act… 

    In the meantime the monetary value of his franchise keeps growing… despite the team’s 13 year 900+ game playoff nonappearance…

     

     

    Running a billion dollar company doesn't necessarily mean he can run any company let alone a sports franchise. He's either clueless as a hockey owner or just doesn't care at this point. I started out excited about his purchasing the team to now thinking he may be the main problem.

    Oh, good. The ol' 1960s-80s television show amnesia twist. The last game of the season, they'll get hit on the head AGAIN and that will make them remember how to score.

    Glad that there's a plan in place now.

    Man at one point I liked the guy as our coach but I'm  now so tired of him. He so matches my view of this team and what needs to change.

    The players no salute policy stopped after the 7-0 win last week.  Even then, they were skating off but were redirected, and some of them went out to the circle.  Big deal for them.     

    Ironically, since the home wins are so scarce, most of us never knew this was happening.  My TV feed on ESPN+ does not include post game.  
     

    I read the article 3 times.  I am more upset that Granato and Adams could even allow that to be their response.  No one is in charge, to coin an old phrase - the lunatics are running the asylum. 
     

    This group lacks accountability in the biggest ways.  The things they say about the 13 year drought, especially alluding to “we haven’t been here for that long” tell me how much, or little, they care.  It’s now beyond the players and it’s infected the coaching and the FO.   

    Can it get any worse ?  

     

    Agree but my overall respect or better put care about what professional players think is non existent. I watch for the games sake. There are exceptions but for the most part these players patronize the fans and care about two things $$$ and attention. This fan salute thing whether it's done or not meh.

    Hell yeah, let’s chase away @PerreaultForever so we can have even fewer solid posters around here! 

    My God I understand taking potshots at the guy because of the Bruins thing, but it’s undeniable he’s a knowledgeable and devoted Sabres fan. It’s every ***** day with this ***** now. 

    Yesterday I saw multiple posts celebrating @LGR4GM posting less. There’s posters I’ve been shaking my head at for 15 years. I wouldn’t be happy to see any of them leave. 

    Some of you need to grow the hell up. There’s enough of this ***** in every other facet of life. Keep it away from here. 

    Agree. Can't someone be a fan and still be objective? Norcal, please define what you think of as a fan. I've been here since the teams existence and the poster you question is just observing this team pretty much spot on.

    I would definitely not want him back, he has only made the playoffs 3 times in 7 seasons after leaving the Sabres and has not advanced passed the 2nd round. No thank you!

    Please compare that with our marvelous record. Hoping you're being sarcastic.

    No deadline deal is going to make or break this season.

    I expect minor moves if any.

    The coming offseason may be another story.  Most 'hockey trades' happen in the summer, especially if a team is not likely to play a big role in the UFA transfer window.

    Adams will stick to his plan.  It is just now starting to show some results - growth of young players.

    Adams will keep his powder dry for another year or two until the Sabres are a perinial playoff team.  Then at some point he will make a trade deadline deal that he feels has a reasonably good chance to get the Sabres their long saught after cusp and maybe even a cup.

    Adams has to stick to his plan. Free agents of any real impact won't choose to come here. Trades would be limited to players without NMC or Limited trade clauses  as they more than likely would nix a trade to Buffalo. So as much as we want to bash our GM we need to realize that in the real world he's operating with his hands tied to a significant extent in my opinion. Now it can be argued how we got in the position we're in but it won't change that position.
