Was kind of weird not seeing or hearing a peep from Patty Lala yesterday ....
Joe Battista gave notice to Nolan that Miller and Ott should be kept out of warm ups for a potential deal?
He's a friend of Pegula's formerly from PSU, and he became VP of Hockey-Related Business at beginning of year. Does that encompass player transactions, or the business side of hockey -- ticket sales, merchandise sales, etc ?
I can't see Ted Black getting canned. Wasn't he a big part of the getting the Harborcenter stuff? He's done a lot of stuff for Pegula. Maybe his role gets tweaked, but he hasn't done anything to get tossed out.

lol even after Pegula said as long as he's here Ted is going nowhere. The guy doesn't have anything to do with hockey operations. His job is to market and promote, he is everything business side and he's done quite a good job with the Bell TV Sabres channel (442) being the latest.So long Ted Black would be my guess.
Didn't Lafontaine say when he came in that it was temporary? Or am I way off on that?
Something isn't adding up.
I hope everyone's health is OK.
From Elliott Friedman : Something is up with Pat LaFontaine and the Buffalo Sabres.
If so what the ****. A quick way to piss off the fan base
Or he wants to keep Nolan and Murray wants his own guy
