https://www.wgrz.com/article/sports/nhl/sabres/buffalo-sabres-legend-rene-robert-hospitalized-following-heart-attack-in-florida/71-20143faf-9d80-4067-a1a9-7c19b2dd6b73 A member of the Buffalo Sabres' famed French Connection is in the hospital following a heart attack in Florida. Sources tell 2 On Your Side that Rene Robert, who was a member of Buffalo's French Connection, along with Gilbert Perrault and Rick Martin, suffered a heart attack and is in the ICU. Robert played for the Sabres from 1972 to 1979. Robert scored the famous "fog goal" in overtime to beat the Philadelphia Flyers in game three of the 1975 Stanley Cup Finals. He finished the 1974-75 season with 100 points, the first time that an NHL player reached that mark in points in one season. Robert played 524 games for the Sabres, scored 222 goals, and ranks fifth on Buffalo's all-time assists with 330. He played in two NHL All-Star games in 1973 and 1975. Robert was inducted into the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame in 1994. The Sabres retired his number (14).

With the tweet that the Bills are focusing on Orchard Park, tells me that they want to keep their facilities at the current location, and somehow incorporate said facilities into a new stadium. Not a fan of the open air with an overhang. Would prefer Downtown as well. But they have sunk a ton of money (Ralph and the Pegulas) into the facilities in OP, so in that regard, makes sense they would want to keep those there. Sort of like the 49ers who built their new stadium in Santa Clara, at their team facilities. (They used to take buses from the facilities to Candlestick for games).

You're used to 10 to 13 football games, the odd concert, and maybe a event that would bring in about 2000 to 3000 in attendance. (Marching Band Championships as an example). A new stadium with a retractable roof would open up so many more possibilities. Imagine the Frozen Four in front of 70,000 fans. You don't think fans from colleges in Michigan and the New England States wouldn't travel to see their alma mater play for a National Championship? Instead of Rounds 1 and 2 of the NCAA Basketball playoff, the East Regional Finals could be held in a new stadium. More big ticket and big name concerts would come through Buffalo and would have a 12 month option to do so. The possibilities are endless. Granted, they're possibilities, but the option to have those things happen in Buffalo would be a real thing.

I just don't get the love the Bills players have for the Pegulas, and the dysfunction and distrust the Sabres players have for the same Pegulas. Unless we're talking about different Pegulas??? 😲 -

I worked for a idiot in San Jose 9 years ago. Internet startup. My very first job function? Make a Twitter account for his dogs, and post as the dogs on said account.
