One of the top rivals in the Atlantic Division for the Red Wings is the Buffalo Sabres, who have lost 10 in a row and have already committed to making no changes.

Last Monday, it seemed as though the Buffalo Sabres could break their lengthy losing skid against the Red Wings, grabbing 1-0, 3-2, and 5-3 leads over Detroit.

However, the Red Wings turned the tables on Buffalo and secured a 6-5 win via the shootout; prospect Sebastian Cossa also picked up his 1st career win in the process.

On Sunday night, the Sabres had a 2-0 lead over the Toronto Maple Leafs, only to fall 5-3 thanks to a hat trick from John Tavares; it was the 10th straight loss for Buffalo.

Team owner Terry Pegula, who also owns the NFL's Buffalo Bills, met with the team after they cancelled practice in Montreal.

The message reportedly from the team owner to the players and GM Kevyn Adams was that no changes were coming, and that he believes that the cure for what ails them is currently in the dressing room; additionally, no trades are expected.

Back for his second stint behind the Sabres bench, coach https://buffalonews.com/sports/professional/nhl/sabres/buffalo-sabres-terry-pegula-lindy-ruff-rasmus-dahlin-tage-thompson/article_35aeab1e-bca4-11ef-80a7-539905b7b544.html that nothing was going to change.

I thought it was incredible what he did. Terry cares. He's passionate about what's happening here, and for him to take the time to come in, it meant a lot to everybody.

Any time the owner cares that much to come in, it sends a message that resonates throughout the locker room.

The definition of insanity is to keep doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. For now, it seems as though the Sabres are content to follow that philosophy, much to the chagrin of their fans.
