And this is why the Bills' and Sabres' futures are secure.  Pegula doesn't need them to be remarkably profitable.

 

 

Wouldn't the Sabres benefit from an owner with more at stake financially?

It is?

 

that's what i've heard.  they haven't adjusted his worth since he sold the company 10 years ago. or accounted for any worth accumulated while he owned the company. basically just based it off what he sold the company for.  do you really think he hasnt invested his money after the sale of the company?

I haven’t heard $10B but have heard well north of $5B. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if it were that high. Pegula carries very little debt which isn’t the case with all of these guys. His money grows fast.

I thought Pegula was worth more around $6 billion, but whatever. Still pretty cool that we have an owner with very deep pockets. Bills/Sabres ain’t going anywhere for a long long time. 

how about out of last place?

If I had a few extra billion lying around, I’d look into owning a sports team...

 

Check under the cushions of your sofa. That should get you started....

Um...No...they could easily sell the team if they were financially at risk. 

 

I really don't know why I feel the need to reply to these types of posts as I know they are just bait, no on can possibly think this way...

Why wouldn't they have adjusted his net worth figures for 10 years, but have done so with the other billionaires?

They weren't this bad with Golisano.

they do when the billionaire owns a publicly traded company. pegs being totally private means they dont know what he has unless he tells them.

You miss the point.   An owner who had the bulk of his net worth tied to the team's value may be more inclined to put out a winning product than a guy like Pegula, where it's more of a toy.

 

I'm not baiting you.  Just asking  question.

Publicly traded companies aren't really owned by an individual.  And the head of the company's net worth isn't included in public disclosures of the company.
