During the Krueger Search supposedly.

The value of the franchise has increased exponentially and probably would go for over one billion in a sale. Pegula could sell a portion of the team to raise cash and still maintain control M&T Bank is headquartered in Buffalo and was 439 on the most recent Forbes 500 ranking. The City of Buffalo experienced a slight increase in population recently. Taxes are what they are, but 850 million for a new stadium is nothing to sneeze at. There is a non relocation clause in the Pegula Sale Contract. Mismanagement from ownership has played the largest role in the decline of revenues and wins. Build a winner and the fans start returning. The NHL values keeping the Sabres in Buffalo given the proximity to Canada and has a contacts with potential ownership groups who would keep the team here. Salt Lake City and Atlanta will be entering the league as expansion franchises within the next five years, causing the values of franchises to continue to climb. Arizona’s Arena Situation and Winnipeg’s decreased attendance and revenue( with the Canadian Dollar worth .75 cents to the USD) in a Canadian Market is the only reason they are candidates for relocation.

A positive sign for me would be retention of some salaries at the TDL, something they haven’t done in a while

Per reports

FWIW The Jets were at their Hotel in Buffalo even before the Sabres Game started yesterday

Last team in the NHL this year to lose a game in regulation after leading heading into the third period

To answer Your question from yesterday, the fans are chanting Hell Yeah after the Sabres Goal Announcements

UPL in net per Granato

It would make sense based on the previous Pittsburgh Connection

If he had two maybe three years left on his deal absolutely, but five years left at 7 million AAV for a guy who turns 34 in October is a risk

I think you’re on to something with Roslovic. I have a suspicion that Zucker (Karmanos/Ventura Connection) was the forward they pursued in UFA over the summer

Buffalo has the second hardest strength of schedule remaining including the Western Canadian Road Trip with a stop in Seattle. I just do not see it happening. I have a hard time believing that the GM of a team that finished one win out of the playoffs last year, would willingly enter this season with the third most cap space. I still believe GMKA is operating under an internal cap.

That’s a W
