bcsaberks Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 HARBORCENTER HOCKEY PLANS TAKING SHAPE: http://sabres.nhl.co...vid=DL|BUF|home Also announced were plans for youth partnership and coaching development programs and the expansion of the Buffalo Jr. Sabres Youth Organization from one team to seven teams, encompassing several youth hockey age groups, to be overseen by Larry Playfair and Michael Peca. This is going to be so good. My understanding of youth hockey right now in western NY is that it's really fractured. Too many options for AAA instead of one clear choice that is often affiliated with the local pro team. Some of the the best Roc kids have typically drifted east to Syr to play with the Nationals. Now western NY will have one well funded and stable team to represent. See: http://myhockeyrankings.com/rank.php?y=2013&a=2&v=113 Buffalo will be at the top of that list for Squirt and PeeWee in a few years I bet. Currently the best PeeWee minor team for Buffalo is the Regals at #36 and best Rochester is Grizzlies at #38. Syracuse #3! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) VERNI TO LEAD THE RESTAURANT & SPORTS BAR AT HARBORCENTER HARBORCENTER President John R. Koelmel announced today that Dominic Verni has been named General Manager of its restaurant and sports bar. “Dom brings tremendous experience and notable success in the food and beverage industry to HARBORCENTER,” Koelmel said. “We are very excited to have him leading the team that will make our restaurant and sports bar one of downtown Buffalo’s most enjoyable and notable entertainment venues.” The yet-to-be-named establishment will be owned and operated by HARBORCENTER. Patrons of the 13,000 square foot, two-level restaurant, with seating for 350, will enjoy fare that is highlighted by Western New York culinary favorites while featuring locally produced ingredients. The menu will be complimented by an extensive collection of craft beers and signature cocktails, available at three feature bars. In addition to being a focus for fans and visitors before and after Sabres home games and other events at the adjoining First Niagara Center, patrons will be able to enjoy the experience of a 36-foot television screen, the largest inWestern New York, as well as other amenities throughout the year. @HARBORCTR Dominic Verni has been named General Manager of HARBORCENTER's restaurant and sports bar @HARBORCTR The two-level restaurant & sports bar includes: WNY culinary favorites, local ingredients, 350+ seating, 3 feature bars, & a 36ft TV screen Edited November 18, 2013 by 26CornerBlitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 I have vivid memories of the 2003 Frozen Four. Fans were walking out of what was then HSBC Center looking all around for something to see or do and seeing nothing but desolation. What an embarrassment. If/when we do get another marquee event in Buffalo at least there will be things to occupy the tourists. I just saw Buffalo Iron Works opened on Illinois St. across from the parking garage. I've often wondered if Illinois would be developed into a restaurant/night club district like Mississippi. PTR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 I'm a lot more excited about this project now that they are taking the hockey team seriously. Now you can hang out at the sports bar and see if any decent tickets pop up outside. If not, watch the game at the bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does he have the contacts around the league to trade waitstaff? Is he any good with the draft, or will we have to stick with bottles? I have vivid memories of the 2003 Frozen Four.
