Buffalo car dealership trying to persuade Vesey with billboard ad

A local Buffalo-area car dealership is doing its best to try and convince Jimmy Vesey to call the city home.

Northtown Automotive has taken out a billboard that reads "Buffalo Loves Vesey," with the hope that the pending unrestricted free agent will sign with the Sabres.

The Sabres acquired the rights to the 23-year-old from the Nashville Predators in late June. However, Vesey has stated that he plans to hit the open market in August when he becomes a free agent.

That considered, Vesey's agent admitted on Friday that the left winger felt "very comfortable" with the Sabres following a meeting with the team on Thursday.
