This should be exciting news to Sabres fans. Here's a guy who basically has money to burn, and wants a winner. Comments like the following must be music to Sabres fans ears:

"If I want to make some money, I'll go drill a gas well. I don't need to make it in the hockey business," Pegula said. "Starting today, there will be no financial mandates on the Buffalo Sabres' hockey department. ... I'm going to make decisions based on winning the Stanley Cup and what is right for the fan base and the team.
"We will aspire to be the best in the league at finding, developing and keeping our players in their new Buffalo Sabre family."

I know everyone around here has been buzzing about this and people are really excited that the Sabres finally have a hockey guy running this organization. I really do think he can work wonders for the Sabres and it's great for them and their fans that they finally have an owner who wants to win and can actually make some moves to allow that to happen.
