the terry pegula-era begins

top-sabre terry pegula
how cool is this?:

a guy with humble beginnings graduates from college and applies the degree he's earned to his field...he takes a chance, starts a company, grows it's worth into the billions then sells it...

all the while he develops a passion for the game of hockey...

after he sells the company he has enough money to do anything he wants and he pours it into the sport he loves...

who wouldn't want a dream scenario like this?

anyhow, what would be my question to new sabres owner terry pegula at the presser today?

"terry, what's your favorite sabres-era team?"

don't know if there will be a storybook ending with a parade down delaware, but for a guy who hitchiked 15 miles to high school, ya gotta believe he'll give it everything he's got
