My guess is that everyone knows the trade was lopsided in our favor and creating part 2 of that would simply give too many people with an agenda a platform to dump all over Buffalo needlessly. That and the amount of time lapsed since part 1 was created.
Better we just keep the celebratory stuff about that trade to our board. Kicking dirt in a suffering fan bases face isn't a good look. That's how you become Boston, no thanks.
Several individuals of the Buffalo fan base deserve to have this shoveled in their face for a loooong time. A few members of the Buffalo media deserve it as well, because they played to the fringe in December and January, and wrote some really stupid stuff.
You are right, though. Buffalo fans as a whole are probably the best the NHL has, honestly. It’s just a signal of that, but all it takes to get an idea of that is a look at the TV ratings for any random NHL game. They are always at the top, and their team has given them NOTHING in recent years, so it’s remarkable they still draw that level of interest.
So, hopefully, the majority of Sabres fans know that the jabs are targeted to that lunatic fringe that so richly deserves them. Best not to bring it to their board to remove any confusion on that.
