He then says the highest execs at PSE have called to flatly deny the Sabres are for sale. Hamilton also really really really doesn’t like the seats at the arena.😀 Both can be true. There could be people who think they could do a better job with the team and want to buy it, but the Pegulas don’t want to sell. And I concur about the seats. The last game I went to I got seats in the top row so I could stand because at 6’3” my legs get crushed trying to fit them in. Plus they’re not as wide as movie theater seats either.

Taro T Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 2 hours ago, PASabreFan said: With attendance so woeful, I see any kind of fan "reachout" to be as normal a state of business affairs as working on next year's landscaping budget. No one's going to tell the people in charge of those things to hold off, and the people in charge of those things would not know to hold off bc the team is being sold. That said, reading the tea leaves is fun. I hope you're wrong, obv. No, this is afaict something more than they've done this century and different from past attempts to reach out. And, though it's a small gesture in the grand scheme, IMHO it IS significant. And they already know several thousand Canadian fans will be back next year as they've already taken their money. So without doing a single thing positive attendance would be significantly up. More so than in any other US based rink almost definitely.

I would add Miller getting run over in the crease versus Bruins. I think Drury and Briere leaving started the fall. The thud was Miller getting run and no one standing up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it’s just a take - not a sourced rumor. But it’s also of a piece with the undercurrent of the Pegulas’ looking for an off ramp from owning the Sabres. Appreciated. I might have missed it since Bone has me blocked on Twitter (for reasons unknown). If you ever replied to a tweet that was even slightly against what he said he blocks you. I am blocked also 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zamboni Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 I’ll believe it when I see it from sources that aren’t questioned as “I wonder how reliable this source is” 😂 that’s just my feelings personally And that’s not to say they are wrong… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
