It ain't lookin' good! Here is the email to the Sabres fans I got from Larry Quinn tonight!
Letter from Sabres' Managing Partner Lawrence Quinn
(September 15, 2004)
Buffalo Sabres
HSBC Arena
One Seymour H. Knox III Plaza
Buffalo, NY 14203
Today, the Board of Governors confirmed that NHL teams will not play until the current Collective Bargaining Agreement is replaced. As a result, the opening of training camp will be delayed and the start of the 2004-05 regular season is in jeopardy. The NHL has our full support as we take this difficult but necessary step toward creating a new economic system that will help the Buffalo Sabres in the future.
During this period of time, the Buffalo Sabres and HSBC Arena are open for business and we are available to answer any question that may arise. Please contact Account Services at 888-GOSABRES. If you would like additional information on the NHL's labor situation, I encourage you to visit our website, sabres.com and click on the link to nhlcbanews.com.
The Buffalo Sabres organization apologizes for the inconvenience this necessary action will cause its loyal fans and business partners. We hope our team will be back in action soon.
Sincerely,
Lawrence Quinn
Managing Partner
