  1. Except for the teams involved, the story was dead on!!!!
  2. Forbes latest valuation is $750MM for the Sabres. But the team is still at or near the bottom of all NHL team values. Same with the Bills in the NFL
  3. Utica must win 3 games and Belleville must lose 2 to make the playoffs. Laval must sweep Belleville in 2 games and Utica must lose one for the Rocket to get in. Belleville gets in with one win.
  4. An Amerks win tonight clinches the #2 seed and home ice in whichever best-of-5 series Rochester plays in, either against likely #3 Cleveland or the winner of the 4/5 play-in round. Syracuse holds the tiebreaker in regulation wins over Rochester 29-25. Other key games tonight include Syracuse @ Utica and Laval @ Belleville.
  5. The stadium is only about 50% state funded. Besides, it looks like the story is BS.
  6. Quick Google search for Chris Sacca shows no other stories linking him to the Sabres.
  7. No, I'm just sharing what I saw online. At least it's a name. Chris Sacca really is a billionaire who grew up in WNY. I have no idea who frickin' Tony the Tailer is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Sacca
  8. Maybe not that much. The stadium is being built. PSLs are being sold. The Bills are more regional. Didn't Kim Pegula say there wasn't that much overlap?
  9. Remember when I hypothesized about a local billionaire who likes the Sabres? Who knew??
  10. https://gophnx.com/what-is-the-roadrunners-future-in-arizona/
  11. "Mike Augello of The Hockey News gives his take on the firing of Don Granato, the team's inability to add during this past off-season and who might be the next captain of the Sabres." (This discussion begins at 47:33) https://www.sportsnet.ca/590/jeff-marek-show/l-a-eyes-potential-opponents-buffalo-makes-a-coaching-change/
  12. Lindy is what? 64? He's not going to want to coach forever (I assume.) What if you brought back Lindy Ruff while promoting Seth Appert to an associate HC role and presumed heir to the job after Ruff retires?
  13. From the "be careful what you wish for" department: Who is goin to spend $650MM to $1B to keep a franchise in Buffalo? Sure, there might be another billionaire from the Buffalo area with a crush on the Sabres. (Although look at the way we treated the last one.) It's way more likely, especially with how Ryan Smith was able to pressure the NHL to sell him the Coyotes, that some out-of-market group would start sniffing around the Sabres. And if you're Terry, how tempting would it be to take a billion with the added bonus of no arena upgrades you have to pay for?
  14. "Ladies and gentlemen... Please welcome your Atlanta Sabres!"
  15. After a brutal 4-4-4 stretch in February, the Amerks are 14-4-1 since Mar. 1.
