LRT: THREAD on that new #Sabres Embedded coming in hot. 🔥⚔️
One word to describe this #Sabres Embedded: T E N S I O N.

One image to describe it... well technically 4 images:
Perhaps unsurprisingly the Pegulas are totally believing this move and this team can make the playoffs. Not only that but Terry himself says "...we're trying to win the Cup."

Kevyn Adams reaction to that is... maybe what you'd expect in response to a BIG boss declaration.
The infamous Darren Ferris involvement here throws a wrench in the analysis. The guy burns bridges like an arsonist. He doesn't get in Hall's way at all in what we see. That might mean Hall really wants to be here... like REALLY wants to be on the #Sabres.
Speaking of Ferris, there's a really interesting bit after the 11:00 mark that both reminds you this is team propoganda & unintentionally funny. After Ferris gently asks the culture question Adams shoots it down so hard it's uncomfortable. Then Terry leaves after the call and...
...it wasn't exactly clear he had been in there. He leaves the office after weird eye contact with the camera as if to say "not an ideal sequence for you guys to capture there."

Idk, to me I got a kick out of this with how #Sabres twitter has been the last few months.
Since every team sponsored video in the NHL apparently needs to have one of these now: a @Steve_Dangle tweet! B/c who do the kids like?
I only really say that b/c it's right after the trending tweet from the News which was an interesting choice for the opposite reason.
Well anyway, to wrap it up: the Kruger screen-in-empty-boardroom shots at the end were Orwellian AF.

WE THE TEAM ARE INTERESTED IN TEAM SUCCESS! (if that wasn't clearly your message here)
END THREAD.

Well I'll mention the Irvin and Rieder signings as afterthought b/c they were in this Embedded hilarious so as if to just illustrate due diligence... on bad bottom six guys... ok.

End.
