OFFICIAL '07-'08 BUFFALO SABRES SEASON THREAD

Even still, all other things held constant (although a winning team would likely lead to higher local media contracts and merchandising) say they end up spending approximately $10 million below the cap right now. If nothing else changed from outside revenue, they have 41 home games in an arena that holds 18,690 people. Approximately a $10 increase in each ticket would cover it, less depending on number of playoff games and any additional tickets sold. Granted, revenues are shared to an extent, but if they were short and wanted to spend to the cap, they could cover it through the box office and i think the fans owuld support them.
