Here is a post on the Sabres thread over at TwoBillsDrive.com from a poster who claims to know the owner of the Binghamton Senators. Take it for what it's worth.
"The day the Sabres hired Murray I was able to speak with the Binghamton Senators owner, Tom Mitchell. I asked him if the Sabres were getting a good one and he laughed and said, "good riddance to him."
