Would be to win the Stanley Cup. And yes I have said cops so. I guess they can't retract. That statement. And we want to win the cup war our fans. We will aim high and winning is not a goal. It is a belief. And I would like to ask all the fans the media. To try to pull him up through an art direction. So we can accomplish that goal. Starting today there will be no financial mandates. On the Buffalo Sabres hockey department. There is no salary cap and the National Hockey League. -- scouting budgets and player development budgets. I plan on increasing. Working with Darcy in the guys. Increasing our scouting budgets both. With the bodies on the ground. And areas we may not. Be hitting capability. And also enhancing our video. Department.
