It's worrying me that so many fans are saying this... are you not aware of ALL Buffalo's sports teams repeated painful disasters? Do you really think the Bills are going to somehow avoid that? Josh does seem personally immune, but '13 seconds' is all the evidence you need to know the Bills as a team are not immune to the absurd failures that plague this cities teams.
There is exactly ONE move Pegula could do to recover some sense of calm for this season - hire a competent, outside of Buffalo, PRESIDENT OF HOCKEY OPERATIONS. Of course, that will never happen. If there are ANY Sabre fans at Friday's game (basically a Leafs home game now), they are practically obligated to spend the entire game chanting 'SELL THE TEAM!"
Thank y'all for talking about the Sabres though. As a Buffalo sports fan I feel like at this point if the talk of the Sabers can't be positive it should be negative and embarrassing. The Pegulas need to feel how bad of a job they are doing with this franchise.
Nobody wants to coach the team Nobody wants to be the gm of the team Nobody wants to play for the team Nobody wants to watch the team. We just get whatever is left. Might as well bring in Shorezy
All kidding aside, it's gotta be culture. Owning an NFL team and NHL team is obviously different. 25 goalies I think in 14 years? Equate that to the 20 years between Kelly and Allen and the results are comparable
@talkingbuffalo same here. I hate when people are like "oh he saved the sabres". No way Golisano was gonna sell them to someone that was gonna move them, it was even part of the sale they had to stay in Buffalo
The league is not letting them move. They are routinely top 5 in US tv markets. And we havent been good in decades! Arizona was tough to move and they arent even a hockey market
Going on 5 years with Adams and they sitting on the bottom. Who wants to play for a owner that half asses everything. The boys are broken the system is broken it’s ugly af
Should of made moves in the off-season let alone the loss to Arizona. Every Hockey pundit knew he should be trying to replace Skinner with another veteran top 6 winger, and getting a veteran defensive d-man to pair with Power to help him. These two moves SHOULD OF BEEN MADE in the off-season. Instead he relies on kids Quinn, Benson, JJ, and Cozens to a lesser degree and re-signs Jokiharju... Kevyn Adams failed at his job, period end of story.
lindy ruff is a joke as a coach but at least he is not as bad as your GM is . what a shame . It has been a long so I forget but what happened when Lafontaine was president - and he quit after about 6 weeks - whatever that was about - that is your answer.
They suck so much but i refuse to let them destroy my mood now. Bills are too good to let the sabres ruin it
Solid

Pres of Hockey Operations couldnt agree more

Until Terry Pegula hires a team President (who's NOT his wife) the Sabres are going to be a clown show. 👍👍
Enjoy the NHL while you have it Buffalo... it'll be history there one day.
They need to fire adams and fire the team except for Lindy and have a clean slate and NO one is an untouchable
Now if only they had a goaltender. You know, a guy like they have up in Ottawa, like that Ullmark guy.
Yeah. League just has only so many... 1... Ullmark to go around. No team would be stupid enough to give that one up.
@@frozenrabbit5641 Completely agree. Any GM who gives away that talent is incompetent and should be fired. You'll get no argument from me.
You are going to look at prospects?! This might finally be the year prospects start telling the Sabres not to draft them
Only way out of this mess is for Pegula to sell the team. Absolute worst owner in NHL history
Its a fear pep[;e have that would result in relocation. I dont buy it (them moving if he sold)

Does he interfere with the GM moves? I thought he was hands off?

Bettman would like nothing more than to move the Sabers to a warmer destination location...be careful what you wish for folks!
I can't stand Bettman. As for warmer crimes, his failed Atlanta franchises and Arizona as well, should speak volumes.
Firesale. Bring Rochester to Buffalo and give ROC a lower league team. Problem solved
I'm not seeing chapters. Skip today I guess :(
Entire episode was about the Sabres my guy.. Long overdue... Bills vs Pats tomorrow
@talkingbuffalo killing me... you're my daily drive listen.
@@talkingbuffalo lmao, the entitlement with these people. 🙄
