MAJBobby Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Bradley Gelber (@BradleyGelber) 4/30/17, 9:20 PM Wow. @FriedgeHNIC says he believes Russ Brandon is leading the search for the #Sabres next GM. That ought to make fans happy... 😳 twitter.com/buffalowins/st So do Bills fans think it will be different here. Nope Managing Partner will have influence
jeffismagic Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 When you have success like hiring Rex Ryan, why not bring that to the Sabres?
Blokestradamus Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Not a hockey guy but Friedman did clarify Gelber's tweet. @FriedgeHNIC Elliotte Friedman Retweeted Bradley Gelber Pegulas lead. Brandon and NHL at his side.
sullim4 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 This is exactly why many of us have been calling for Russ' head. Regardless of what we are told about his lack of involvement with respect to hockey/football decisions, we don't believe it, and it seems that he does indeed have Terry and Kim's ear with respect to stuff like this.
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 I truly believe he is being paid by Kraft and the Owner of the Bruins to destroy both franchises by clandestine means.

CommonCents Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 I have reached a point where I don't care who is doing what anymore. I rode Whaley for the past few years and now that he is gone I can only hope they have picked the right guy in McDictator. It seems as if the Pegula's are arms deep into every decision being made so from this point forward everything points back at them. Hopefully they are headed towards years of praise and glory.
Jerry Jabber Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 The "tank" will all be for nothing! Thanks Terry & Russ!
sir andrew Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Great, now he can screw up a historically successful franchise more than it already is. I used to think "Well Bills are a tire fire again, but, at least the Sabres are fun to watch".
nucci Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 When you have success like hiring Rex Ryan, why not bring that to the Sabres? What could go wrong?

Regardless of what we are told about his lack of involvement with respect to hockey/football decisions, we don't believe it, and it seems that he does indeed have Terry and Kim's ear with respect to stuff like this. Not to mention, he is 0-for
TUBSTER Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 I truly believe he is being paid by Kraft and the Owner of the Bruins to destroy both franchises by clandestine means. Would not be surprised
bilzfancy Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 He's NOT leading the GM search, he's not a hockey guy and he knows it, don't believe everything you read, some if you are so freaking gullible
quinnearlysghost88 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 i was told he's just the president of two professional teams and that he oversees executive teams who make the real decisions and that he doesn't have influence over these types of things and that he doesn't get involved in the day to day operations of the teams.
Rico Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 He can do whatever he wants to the Sabres, just keep him away from the Bills, please Pegs.
CommonCents Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 He's NOT leading the GM search, he's not a hockey guy and he knows it, don't believe everything you read, some if you are so freaking gullible "The next time LaConforna is right about something will be the first time" That was a quote from you when JLC came out with a report over a month ago that McD and the Bills might move on from Whaley and even mentioned possibly bringing in one of the Panthers guys. That seems to have been spot on a month later. Sometimes what you read is the truth.
chris heff Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 It just stuck me how well the whole continuity thing is working for Pegula.
Rockpile233 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Whether it's Terry and Kim or Brandon, either way someone grossly unqualified is leading the search for an NHL GM. Hopefully they have good league consultants.
Reed83HOF Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 He can do whatever he wants to the Sabres, just keep him away from the Bills, please Pegs. Can we keep Pegs away from the Bills as well? You know maybe hire an experienced person to run the franchise...just a thought
