There was some dark news in the Buffalo Sabres community a handful of weeks ago when it was announced that Sabres (and Buffalo Bills) owner Kim Pegula was receiving serious medical treatment as a result of “unexpected health issues.” As it had been a considerable amount of time since that announcement with no update, fans were becoming increasingly concerned with her health status.
Now, via the Sabres, the Pegula family said in a statement today that Kim is “progressing well,” resting, and rehabbing from her health issue, asking fans to continue to respect their privacy. The full statement is as follows:
Kim is progressing well and is resting and rehabilitating from a health issue. We are grateful for the medical professionals providing her care and to everyone for their prayers and well wishes. We ask that you please continue to respect our need for privacy during this time.
Pegula, 53, has been the owner of the Sabres since the 2015-16 season when she was transferred principal ownership of the team from her husband Terry. She was also named team president in 2018-19 and has also served in that role for their AHL affiliate in Rochester.
PHR sends their best wishes to the Pegula family and the Sabres community for her continued recovery.
Its suprising to see a person as rich as Kim Pegula fall into the plan. Good luck to her and nobody deserve that and open your mind and listen to them who have a different narrative than the mass medias.
Could you please explain “the plan”? Thanks.
Yeah, what nutso thing does that mean?
The plan is to keep a good health, of course ;)
My comment is awaiting moderation??
I missed the news of her being ill. No doubt she’ll get top care. Get well.
