On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens to discuss several Buffalo Sabres and fan topics, including an examination of if the fever pitch behavior of fans lately is a sign of a great sports town or one that’s kinda jumping on the bandwagon.
Good luck going to a bar or restaurant for a Sabres playoff game without it being packed, or not having to compete at Dicks’s Sporting Goods or other retail stores where Sabres merch is flying off the shelves. Don’t get us wrong—this is all amazing not to mention long overdue, but does it say anything negative about the fan base along the way? To be fair, getting a Sabres ticket in March or April in recent years in the secondary market has been cheaper than going to the movies. The guys attempt to have a nuanced discussion without pissing off fans while doing so, very unlikely of course.
Also, Buffalo fans are letting Boston sports fans absolutely have it recently on Twitter following the Sabres dismantling of the Bruins in the first round of the playoffs, plus several other Boston teams struggling this year. Is it all in good fun or a petty look? Maybe, it’s both.
Other topics discussed include trying to figure out which one player not named Jack Eichel or Sam Reinhart from the Sabres drought era teams they wish could be on the current playoff roster. That plus did Joe enjoy watching “The Pitt” based on Patrick’s recommendation and much more.
