‘“I watched two playoff games in…I’m not going to mention the pub that I was in. It was really interesting. I asked people about the Sabres. I asked them how they were feeling about the potential about the group. What I felt was a passion for the game. I really like the size of the market. I’m more a smaller city person than a big city person personally, but also I know the history of the Sabres. I grew up loving to watch the way they played and I can feel the passion from the fan base and the hunger for something good to happen here.”’
