Anybody that thinks Terry is going to keep the bills and then sell to sabers isn't that in touch

 

First of all he cried when he bought the sabers.. not the bills

 

Second he would have a PR nightmare that would not go away in buffalo

My worry is the Sabres are worth 2X-3X more in any other city. I don't know what their lease situation is but I bet they aren't as tied down as the Bills are. (And the Bills aren't even that tied down when you really look at it.)

 

Both. QC is not getting a team.

LOL at you for even thinking there is a remote chance of the Sabres leaving Buffalo.

I'm pretty sure I remember him crying when he bought the Buffalo sabers... in The opening press conference

 

And I don't remember him crying when he bought the bills

 

It was like over 10 years ago.. but I'm pretty sure he cried during the sabers press conference

 

And said how this was his dream

I do.  I remember he had a huge boogie coming out of his nose.

He was crying and blowing snot bubbles.

I definitely remember it for the sabers

 

But that makes my point even more... He's passionate... And the sabers are his baby

 

He's not discarding them

So he's a passionate owner who saved two franchises in Buffalo...

 

And he's also put billions of dollars into Buffalo

 

He's not discarding his legacy to get rid of the sabers

I agree.  I just thought it was odd he'd separate the 2.  I read (speculation?) that PSE was Kim's baby so maybe splitting them might be better tax-wise.  Someone also said he could sell up to a 25% stake in the Sabres.  I don't know.  But I'm 100% sure he's at least not selling the Bills.

Terry bought the Sabres for $189M and it's worth over $600M.  He has also had possible net yearly revenues with maybe the exception of Covid

years.  Team is on the rise again and fans will go back to their seats.  He is not losing money owning the Sabres.

Expand  

That’s great. Still a lot of silly speculation, especially if they are not losing money.

For sure the one Buffalo thing was kind of his moniker

If Terry is selling a minority stake in the Sabres to raise renovation funds then taking the Sabres out of PSE structure would be a necessary first step.  

 

I have heard that if it were totally up to Kim, the Pegulas would have sold the Sabres and been done with hockey a few years ago.  The reason that hasn't happened is because Terry loves hockey.  Terry put $100 million into Penn State's hockey program to bring them D-1.  I would be very surprised if Terry is giving up the Sabres.
