Sabre The Cup

Out of curiosity, are there any HOFers in any sport that credit a sports psychologist for their success? Genuinely asking.

It wouldn’t be that crazy for Pegula to change his mind in 6 months all things considered. Some people yell NO when it’s really a maybe but they’re just not ready yet. Let's hope this story is true and the buyer is good for the city and the team.

We can agree to disagree then. If there is anybody hopelessly unqualified for the position in the NHL, it is him.

It’s a good time for a new coach. Believe it or not, we can still create a great team out of what we have with a couple new (tough) additions. Skinner MUST go. Adams would need to go too for us to get beyond a 1st round playoff loss level. The man is simply over promoted 4 levels above his competency. Time for Pegula to wake up.

Quenneville is the best choice by far. If that turns people off then the next best choice is Gallant. Ruff will break our playoff drought but we’ll peak in the first round. Berube would be similar. Peca looks and talks good but I don’t know if he’d even be better than Appert would be. Brind’amour held prime Lindros out a car window. He’s a bad ass and would be a great coach here. But likely unavailable.

What gives me hope is Pegula showing up at games recently. I’m hoping that’s his way of waking up and realizing something isn’t right. Slower than a sloth.

Can someone explain this in a bit more detail? In this situation, how do tax breaks help? Are the Sabres just a write off?

I think he’s just all in on the Bills. NFL teams are extremely expensive and the Sabres are in budget mode because of it. The spending stopped once he bought the Bills. Why won’t he sell? I don’t know. I think he just doesn’t have to. He’s in Florida and doesn’t have to deal with the questions and complaints.

All is necessary except the President. No need to have another major ego in the room. Best case scenario is that the new owner has a good eye and a good ear from around the league and can figure out the GM on his own. Keep in mind lots of owners are billionaires with great business sense and great eye for general talent. They’re not all clueless like the Pegulas.

It’s only 100k after subtracting the money laundering.

Very excited for the future! God bless the Pegulas and PSE. Huge fan of their country music label too! Keep bringing the hits!

The plan is HOPE.

He’ll be a Norris trophy winner next year on a different team. The problem is the organization. Pegula doesn’t want to spend big on two franchises.

This is all true. But I think the end goal is for Pegula to move the team somewhere else. Destroy the fanbase and make more money in a bigger city. At one point the goal may have been to keep it in Buffalo, but I think the team is gone in a few years. That’s why we have this weird holding pattern and cut costs.
