Thanks, You pretty much called the off-season so far. It's been very underwhelming with the assets and Cap he had available IMO.

Yeah ok, I'm sure he is making a profit by how much he is able to write off. The term is sunk cost fallacy.

Pegulas probably write off big losses (pse), while the team itself (the asset) continues to sky rocket in resale value.

Perfect for multi sport owner/ billionaires.

By that logic, when the price peaks, you sell?

For the most part …… most NHL teams are not profitable.

Prior to pegula and the losing, it was rumored just for the Sabres to break even…. They needed to make playoffs.

So he bought the team knowing it would run in the red on a yearly basis.

Wasn’t the Tom G directive to Darcy, just break even? Which is why we had video scout 3000.

Or am I remembering wrong?

this is the biggest lie in all of professional sports. The league makes a poop ton of money. They made 6.1 billion in revenue in 2022.

The Sabres are currently a nice tax write off for pegula. Why would he sell?

Why would you sell an asset that is gaining huge monetary value, when you're not "paying taxes" and using the Sabres to offset pse gains?

Seems like terry will sell, when he's sick of owning.
Again, this is his baby, buying and owning the Sabres.

terry is getting up in age

health concerns can always come out of nowhere when you get to be his age

his wife will probably never be the same and not in position to make future decisions for the teams

letting your son in law leave/eliminate his job is very telling

Pegulas friends possibly?

Yeah, that was the ultimate goal to break even. That is want golisano had an internal cap.

I would do wonders for that organization. They have the wrong type of people up top.

What Americans got killed on what yacht?

do any of his kids live in buffalo or is it all california/florida now?


seems easy for the kids to show up for a few bills games a year


41 sabres games, probably not

I mean aside from a few "special" games, how often is terry at key bank arena?

tom was there all the time

Some of these responses are wild. I said I thought the Sabres should’ve done more this off-season & some people are reacting like I said the Sabres will never win another game. You can be optimistic about the long term vision while questioning the lack of moves this summer

If you win the lottery tonight. I think you will have enough money to actually buy the Sabres lol

What’s 1.5 billion after taxes? Probly 5 dollars

- Sabretooth9


I plan to win that, as well as a couple others in surrounding states to ensure I have the funds. 36 is going to be the brains of the operation and I'll be the oil man this time.

We would win 50-60 Stanley Cups this century, statues would be erected.

Haha, I said erect.
