Terry Pegula purchased the Buffalo Sabres in February 2011. The NHL franchise hasn't skated in the Stanley Cup Playoffs since April 2011. That's not a coincidence.
Now, Pegula remains silent as the Sabres' playoff drought eagerly races toward 15 years amid a three-game losing streak that continued in a 7-4 loss to the Calgary Flames on Monday night. No changes to the front office regime, guided by general manager Kevyn Adams, or the Lindy Ruff-led coaching staff.
It's an unacceptable lack of urgency to turn things around. If the team's owner truly believes in the status quo, he should hold a press conference to explain his reasoning.
