Sabres drop lawsuit as strength coach's bid to acquire green card is approved
Just under two months after filing a lawsuit in U.S. District Court, the Buffalo Sabres have dropped a case alleging U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services improperly denied a green card for Dr. Edward Anthony Gannon, the team's head strength and conditioning coach.
The suit was dropped Wednesday morning and the team released a statement later in the day that said Gannon, a native of Great Britain who has been with the team since 2015, has had his petition approved.
“The matter has been resolved amicably between both parties, resulting in the complaint being withdrawn and Ed Gannon receiving approval of his EB-1 petition," the team said.
In a related development the Sabres announced they have fired Ed Gannon. j/k lol
