ROC Sabres Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 I really like the latest article I read from the Portland Press Herald Same as on the main page Brian Petrovek, the Pirates' CEO/managing owner: No comment A Buffalo spokesman, Michael Gilbert: no comment The Americans' president, Lewis Staats: no comment I understand the point of not speaking to what might be going on with a deal that could be in place but is it really necessary for the writer to point out that everyone knows that a deal is in the works and no one wants/can say anything? Oh well, I'm sure the stories will continue to unfold slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X. Benedict Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 Bucky says price is around 4-5 million. What's that? 2 months of interest for TPegs. lol Much cheaper than starting a D. I program in the Big 10. ;) I don't think settling any contractual breaches in Portland would be insurmountable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that Big 10 team did need a new arena to play in. ;) If they are in fact modeling it after BUs arena like I last heard, yeah, that thing will be expensive.

Actually...AHL teams don't really have any assets except the franchise itself...most teams lease arenas, rent players, and sell tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LastPommerFan Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 11 days That means his bankroll covers the entire salary cap every 5 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 That means his bankroll covers the entire salary cap every 5 months. That's why he will be a great owner, once he figures out you have to take the anchor up before the boat can move forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobody Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 That's why he will be a great owner, once he figures out you have to take the anchor up before the boat can move forward. Or you could install bigger engines; then you could just drag it along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason I just got the mental image of an oiled-up Ted Black in a blue and gold speedo, sunning himself on the front of the boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhttab Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 "FLA is the easy target NHL franchise: they were disappointed with Rochester, so they left" If you really followed the situation Styres notified FLA in the fall that he was not interested in continuing the relationship. FLA wasn't willing to provide the kind of talent and skill that could keep butts in the seats and Styres was losing a ton of money. That organization (FLA) does not know how to develop their players. Do you really think Pegula would sign this letter of intent and let this get leaked (there is no way that both sides weren't aware of this "leak") if he hadn't already explored his ability to get the Sabres out of their agreement with Portland? There is no way that things have gotten this far publicly without the deal being all but done. If the sale does take until Oct to become official, the Sabres will already have the buyout with Portland done and a temp agreement in place for the start of the next season.

nobody Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 AHL APPROVES MOVE OF MANITOBA MOOSE TO ST. JOHN'S, NL So ATL/WIN was in Chicago last season while VAN was in Manitoba. Since WIN will now be in SJ with the former Moose. Does VAN head to CHI? You would think each of the teams would be happy with each other. Or do we see even more mixing up now?

Portland is in talks with a couple of west coast teams for affiliation. From your mouth to God's ears. This is just awesome for Rochester. That being said, I also hope that Portland ends up with a strong parent club because it's not like they did anything other than be a great farm club for the Sabres.
