I know I posted this in the draft prospect thread, but it also seems appropriate here. Sabres are looking for help, but have no scouts for Finland, Russia, or the WHL. It's so bad, it's comical.

Someone please tell me this isn’t true... 😞

See ya!

I only had to read one line of the job description...The Director of Fan Development will play a key role in growing and sustaining the fanbase of the Buffalo Sabres. LOL. Good luck with that! https://recruiting.ultipro.com/HOC10001BFLO/JobBoard/4d61dcfa-1b56-4c81-b31a-0e36b69a57fa/OpportunityDetail?opportunityId=35e807f6-072c-4241-9657-32bae59700b8 If not, how about working with the Pegula daughters as Manager of the Healthy Scratch. 😂 https://recruiting.ultipro.com/HOC10001BFLO/JobBoard/4d61dcfa-1b56-4c81-b31a-0e36b69a57fa/OpportunityDetail?opportunityId=627e130f-00f0-434b-a1e4-1bb7bc097017

This is the exact same place I am at. 😞

So even though we have no decent center on the team outside of Eichel(Lazar is okay as a 4C), all of a sudden Sam can play center? Why hasn't this been tried for a period of time over the last two years Ralphie?

I often find it odd that a national hockey guy breaks a story like this over the fantastic local beat guys, or even a Sabres employee such as Peters, Biron, River or Duff.

I know NHL injuries have to be treated like they are part of a secret society, but I'd feel much better about the future of Eichel as a Sabre, if they fessed up that he has been playing through an injury the entire year, it's not getting better, and we are shutting him down for the season.

I hope this(along with the injuries to McCabe and Ullmark) will not make the powers that be, believe that Ralph is not the problem.

He wasn't in the role long enough to question his hiring. 😂

Maybe what causes threads like this to be started, is when a team president looking for a GM conducts NO interviews, and just hires an under qualified employee who was running the youth hockey academy, because of familiarity. Fast forward 9 months, and the team is as bad as ever. Does this seem like a sound business decision? 😂

You brought a tear to my eye. I'll leave the thread open, but I'll move on. Thanks! 🙂

Constantly move the needle. You say that she is qualified to be Sabres and Bills president because of 30 years of experience in business. So when I ask you to help me out with what she did over said 30 years, your response..."don't know or care". Sometimes it just is not worth arguing. 😂

Fair enough. I agree with your answer 100%.

Please enlighten me. What was her position/responsibilities within the fracking business for all of those years. And oh by the way, we all know the worth of a business degree. 😂

That would be correct. Thank you.

You're going to nitpick over my choice of words instead of the question of the thread? Knock yourself out.

I've never blocked anyone and I'm not going to start now. At times, I just need a subtle reminder to not engage certain posters.

If you have such vivid memories of this thread from years ago, then there doesn't appear to be a need for you to comment further. 😉

Terry isn't listed as the team president, Kim is. Because of that I am coming to the conclusion that she is much more involved in the day to day business side of the organization.

Are most owners also the team president, and not only of the highest position in the organization of one team, but multiple teams?

Disclaimer...I’m not accusing her of meddling, and I’m not saying this because she is a woman. What is it other than being the owners wife qualifies her to be head of PSE, and therefore President of two major league sports franchise in North America? Her bio doesn’t go into what she did at Fracking USA, therefore I get the impression she had no major role there.

...reason for existence

🤮🤮🤮

Didn’t he have to fire numerous front office hockey staff before the ink was even dry on his contract?
