You can say the same thing about Sabres fans and Eichel’s trade value
- rangerdanger94


Call me crazy, but when the main piece is Vatali “I haven’t been over .5 ppg in any league above the MHL while also being a winger” Kratzov and Buf fans say naw, followed my Rangers fans saying fine, he was an untouchable anyways, seems like we’re at an impasse on understanding what true value is, injury or not.
For reference on why not, Buffalo just drafted two Russians who’ve done about the same as Kratzov in the second round. While we think they may have promise, if they were used as the best trade chip for an Eichel talent, even injury concerns in, no one would give a flying (frank). If Rangers fans aren’t gonna negotiate on good faith, you’re gonna get the same f all attitude.

Can't see it happening, even if it means Joe and Jane taxpayer get to foot the bill which will almost certainly happen.

Probably 65/35 taxpayers with PSLs to follow

If that’s how it goes, then at least the income generated by the stadium should be split along the same percentages.

I can’t wait until he boxes a tiktoker in 6 months to pay his child support.

I hope so. Oakland, San Diego and St.Louis were all bigger markets than Buffalo. As we all know the NFL is all about Bigger is Better.

Why are we going from zero to sixty here already?

This is called negotiating.

- Powerslave

Tax money paying for these things should be a thing of the past by now, with the way the NFL prints money. The fact that their starting position is that they pay nothing is ridiculous to say the least. Again I say GTFO.

Buffalo is not a great market for the NFL to be fair.

As we all know the NFL don’t give a Sh!t about their fans. All they care about are corporate paid for luxury boxes and PSL’s. But you are correct, the fan base is second to none. Especially for a team that has sucked for so long. Diehard!!!!

Based on what? There are bigger cities where they can charge higher prices for everything. The corporate suites alone are one place where they can make tons more cash. It's all about maximizing profit.

Buffalo was ranked 4th in TV viewership, it's a steady market.

Then they can keep watching TV when the team leaves, this kind of arrogance is what will come back to haunt Buffalo.

I am a prophet. I told you Eichel would kill the Sabres and I told you the Pegulas would threaten to move the Bills by the beginning of this decade.

I would say more but Fitz has the mods on speed-dial anything egregious I happen to say.

- Jet Jaguar BD

You need to get over the victim status you love to role with, same with your Beady alt.

Both you and Fitz were banned the same amount of days, for your juvenile behavior, you want to be insulting and disrespectful, you will be banned.

Market size is a big thing with those ratings.

Do 6% of Buffalo population.
Do 2% of LA population.

Tell me what’s bigger.
