Apparently, Mr. Swados meant no more than a paragraph and some cut-n-paste to you.
Thank you, Mr. Swados, for all you've done in bringing and keeping professional hockey to WNY. If it wasn't for men like yourself (behind the scenes, but ever so important) and the Knox brothers, who knows what, then? Thank you, and on behalf of every WNY hockey fan, we are forever in your debt.
