Thread: Murray and McCann to move JJ
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tjm220</b></div><div>You can try to question my personal experience, but I doubt that serves any point you’ve tried to make. My point is basically everywhere you go in the Buffalo area if there’s a TV hockey is on. Everybody watches all the time. Many of us grew up in hockey rinks, in hockey families, watching Hockey Night in Canada, picking it up on local cable. It’s been said that Buffalo is the most Canadian of all American cities. That’s not just because of Tim Hortons, but hockey being in our blood year round.</div></div>

Wow so your describing literally every hockey town. Minnesota is the same way. Gotta love how i ask for actual evidence towards your statement and you fail to give it. Why wouldnt i question your personal experience newsflash just because a bar has hockey doesnt mean everyone is watching it. Im sure their are plenty of fans that turn on the Bills over the Sabres. Unless you have actual evidence to support your claim that Buffalo fans know so much more than every other fan base cause they watch other teams just stop making a fool of yourself.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tjm220</b></div><div>The TV viewing metrics that I see year after year are for American TV markets only. But more than 2/3 of the league’s teams are in the United States. I would wager that Buffalo has as much TV viewership by percentage at least of hockey as any Canadian market. Every bar you go to or restaurant with TV has a hockey game on if there is one to watch. They might also have a baseball game or a football game on, but there is always one one more on a hockey game. Sure, there are plenty of Sabres fans who no longer care once the Sabres are not playing. But I think for every one of those there are at least two who watch hockey because hockey is on.</div></div>

Ok... this is literally any bar with a hockey team in the entire country. And this is all perception. No hard facts at all.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tjm220</b></div><div>Is it worse not having expectations or to always fall short of them? As a Sabres fan I can vouch for the fact that by and large Sabres fans are among the most knowledgeable hockey fans out there. Every Fanbase has people who only watch their own team, but Buffalo watches hockey constantly. We are always among the highest TV viewing markets even when we are not participating. That is not debatable, it is a fact. If a Sabres fan is giving you an evaluation of players he watches all the time and players he watches whenever he can you might want to listen. He’s probably watched just as much hockey as you or more.</div></div>

Have any sources to back your claim up? Cause i can gurantee that you dont touch any of the Canadian cities.
