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.😀 Expand 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. Quote

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. Expand 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. Quote

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.
