If the Sabres can’t get Zegras or Drysdale in a deal for Eichel they need to hang up the phone.

What a joke.

Unproven 10th overall pick is untouchable for a guy who’d go 1st overall 9/10 years and is already in his prime

Ground rule number one in an Eichel deal needs to be:

"You do not have untouchable prospects"

How much will it cost to upgrade/remodel the arena vs how much for a new arena out near Bills stadium?

Build hotels and a casino turn both organizations into a sports resort in Orchard Park.

Not enough land out there in Orchard Park by the Stadium, unless they move ECC.

There was an article in the BN recently that ECC is considering consolidating their 3 campuses.

Something to monitor

Would have to agree with this.

Well if they move ECC South they would be close. Still take a lot of maneuvering.

Yawn

You didn’t even notice it. Went right over your head. Keep yawning.

It's completely exasperating.

Could definitely make it interesting, still would have to see about buying out some business around there and the some of the residential areas.

Might be for some, don't know about those people that have houses on Big Tree there by the College.

Been talked about since giambra was in office
The board of directors and county at the time decided north campus would be shut down if it were to happen

That’s why I said a $100 mill to buy in. Thinking minority stake for Jim… not the full boat. Also secures the team in buffalo. Keeps jim in check from getting Hamilton itchy.

If he wants to move the team to Hamilton, then he isn’t going into a minority ownership deal.

Why would North be shut down if they put a new Rink in OP.

Now can that Change of course
County land

No problem 36

South campus is in much better shape
Air conditioning
Cleaner

But north has brand new building
But run down

And they can't shut down city campus

I just think it would be weird if South closed, guess they could move it but the Kats play there. It's a decent field for a Community College

like the idea they would have to re-develop that entire area not just the new complex for fans to even enjoy.

I'm a South campus alum (before finishing my undergrad at UB). South campus is nice. They had a black and white photography lab - circa 2012 - which was awesome

Honestly selling at least a part of the team is the right thing to do.

They’ve proven they can’t run both the Bills and Sabres

Get some help

What's the appeal of selling a minority share? Doesn't seem to make sense for either party if the Pegulas are still in control.

They can replace Kim as pres anytime they want.
