I can see how you relate, spending daddy’s money vs husbands money...is there a difference?

The lady was a waitress, then a rich wife, then President of 2 professional sports organizations.

Guy if/when your daddy’s protective bubble pops you will understand risk/reward. She is the president of one of the worst teams in the sport. Calling her an amateur waitress is us acting like saints.

One banana eater here named his trolling account after an ex gm and called him a dueche and I have to look at that everyday.

Take the sand out of your vagina and stop acting like a professional positions respect is a right, it’s earned.

Whoa now 2 things:

Banana eater as an auto-correct for banana eater is hilarious and

I’ll gladly take her job. Spending money always helps initially, but it all comes down to W”s and L”s in sport. Being a billionaire lifts you from that in reality so she doesn’t even have the right mindset. She can go get banksy to paint a mural in the harbor center, figure out how to win first.

Skinner is actually Florida's back-up plan if Panarin goes elsewhere.

You're smart enough to understand the difference between criticism and the racist and sexist commentary. Wanna make fun of her for her hirings and firings? Cool. But the "I ruv u Terry" poop and the black widow poop is not appropriate or relevant to hockey.

If you want to call it virtue signaling or sanctimonious or whatever, go for it. I think it's bullpoop, and I'll continue to call it out

If you’re Asian and take offense then I’m sorry, I never said stuff like that. However if you’re Asian and can’t laugh at a fish guy venting online, cognitive behavioral therapy does wonders, I highly recommend it.

Honestly I would like to see you do her job
She brought in the Harborcenter and 716 And was the Creator of Pegula Sports & Entertainment . She’s done nothing just got the draft, world jr game( and outdoor) and other events

But hey you do you ..

Oh and don’t tell me these things don’t matter because they do

Long time lurker. And finally had to jump
Into this debate. The problem isn’t really that she’s the president with zero hockey experience and is still learning 8 years later. The problem is she is the president of the nhl team and governor. President of the nfl team and president of pse. Add in the bandits, Amerks, beuts up until a month ago. And do it from Florida half the time. They (Pegulas) can’t deligate worth a damn. And don’t put people in positions to succeed. I love them for saving the teams. And I love what they’ve done for the area. But they are really missing the boat!

Take just the Sabres. You have a first time gm. With a first time coach. And zero experience around them. Kim May be a nice person. But she doesn’t know hockey.

Take the leafs at about the same point botts was hired. You had Lou, Shanny, Babs and analytic up and comer that took over for Lou. That is a metric crap ton of hockey knowledge and success.

We had a handsy market guy that ran a nfl team into the ground with no hockey experience. A up and coming gm with a first time coach... and that spells success?

I like botts. I like Ralph. Add one more hockey mind and let Kim go play developer.

One person shouldn’t be running every thing she is. Add the right people to allow all the organizations to thrive.

The Pegulas deserve criticism. They don't deserve to be insulted.

I dare anyone in here today who is insinuating that running 2 sports franchises is easy, and that they'd "gladly take her or his job", to actually do it and show us how it's done.

Comparing the lure of the mapleleafs and the city of Toronto to the Sabres and Buffalo is unfair.

Toronto is 1 of the top cities in the world.

The pegulas are trying to get it right. I'm sure they will get zero credit for effort, but they are trying to be proactive and not sit on their hands.

Wasnt russ Brandon the president until last season?
Mid season?

Was she supposed to rush in to hire someone right away?

Also, in fairness, our AGM's are experienced and highly regarded. Very few teams have a president of hockey ops.

The pegulas tried having poho by hiring patty lala and that didnt work either.

I'm confident they will eventually hit on gm and coach. Hopefully it's the pair we have now 🙂

That was an impulse buy. Seems like they learned from it, but it was just a terrible mistake.
