Time for Terry to pull the Trigger!

Enough's enough already! It's time for Terry Pegula and team president Ted Black to pull the trigger. Something needs to be done and done immediately!

The Sabres lost their 11th straight road game, 4-1 to Winnipeg Thursday night. The way the Sabres are playing, they'd lose every game if they were in the AHL. The team is listless, the players are not earning their multi-million contracts.

Sabres not done making moves

It's been a wild and exciting week for Sabres fans. They saw the addition of two top-notch defensemen, along with a forward who helped eliminate them in the playoffs.

The Sabres say that they are finished their renovation of the roster. However, with an over supply of both wingers and defensemen and their salary base close to the cap, something has to give. With the new era ushered in by Terry Pegula, and the promise of a Stanley Cup in 3 years, all signs point to the Sabres addressing their huge need at center.

Will Pegula keep Regier?

Now that Terry Pegula is officially the new owner of the Buffalo Sabres, one of his biggest decisions will be what to do with General Manager Darcy Regier. Most think that Pegula will have an evaluation period to see just what Regier will do without Larry Quinn pulling his strings.

Will Pegula lead the Sabres out of the wilderness?

Thursday was the day when the Sabres finally would officially acknowledge the fact that Terry Pegula was the new Sabres owner. During the 1 hour press conference, Tom Golisano only talked about their perceived accomplishments.

Golisano would not accept any criticism of the team, his policies or his staff. He turned around the question about whether he was responsible for dismantling a President's Trophy team to where it is now, in 10th place.

Golisano, instead of humbly going out in style and class, came across as an arrogant, defiant owner who bristled at any criticism he or his team took over the years.

Sabres need "Extreme Makeover" from top on down

The "Extreme Makeover" came to Buffalo last year and did wonders for a family in a very poor neighborhood. The Buffalo Sabres could use a similar makeover. There's hope that the rumors are right, that Terry Pegula will come in riding a white horse and right the wrongs the Sabres fans have had to endure the past 5 years.

The Sabres stood pat after last season, with the smug Darcy Regier just making a few minor moves to help the team that lost 2 key defensemen after last season plus others. Meanwhile, the Boston Bruins, who beat the division-winning Sabres last year in the playoffs, went full steam ahead in trying to upgrade the team.
