As reported in the Buffalo News (5-15-2009) Tom Golisano is leaving New York State. The reason is the high taxes in this state. What effect his move will have on the Buffalo Sabers is unknown. It would be a smart move on his part to offer to sell the Sabers, to Canadian billionaire Jim Balsillie. Mr. Balsillie then could move the Sabers to Hamilton. By purchasing the Sabers Mr. Balsillie would have less opposition in his quest in bringing a NHL hockey team to Southern Ontario. With Mr Golisano out of New York State it is just a matter of time before the Sabers are gone.
