Buffalo Sabres News: The Rochester-less Americans?

The Rochester-less Americans? It could happen, and sooner than you think!

A few weeks ago, 95.7 ESPN Rochester’s afternoon show the Sports Bar brought up the fact that the Rochester Americans’ contract with the Blue Cross Arena in downtown Rochester is expiring this April. The show’s hosts tried to contact the City of Rochester and city officials for comments.

Days later, Pegula Sports and Entertainment addressed the issue with a statement:

Pegula Sports and Entertainment has been engaged in discussions with the hopes of reaching a long-term agreement for the Rochester Americans to compete in an improved facility that meets necessary arena standards.
