Here's what Paul Wieland, long-time PR Director of the Sabres (when they were good) and creator of the Taro Tsujimoto hoax, recently said about the Pegulas:
“Nine years ago, Terry Pegula bought the Sabres and promised he was going to win a Stanley Cup in three years,” Wieland said. “They haven’t made the playoffs yet. Does that give you any idea about the competence of the man that owns the team as far as getting the right people in charge? I think it should. I am a fan and I am disgusted.
“I look at the roster right now, and it’s like an augmented American League team. And they don’t have anyone in the minors right now except one goalie. I don’t know where we are after nine years. I’m a lifelong fan. I was there at the beginning, I want them to win. But I am so disgusted as a fan. What you have to pay as a fan to go see that is obscene. They’re terrible, and every year he raises the prices.”
