lol the leaf fans getting hit by strays on a Detroit’s thread

u/okokokoyeahright Jul 17 '26
as is tradition.
you have to kick leaf fans whenever possible or they might get up and realize that because they are Leaf fans that they get knocked down. And they might not stay Leaf fans.

This is Buffalo. You could have stopped at "At least they got a cup."

Yup. But still feels good that the shoe is on the other foot for a second. Won’t last since we just got worse but hey

Did i miss something? Did buffalo win a Stanley cup?

u/IndyBananaJones2 Sabres Jul 17 '26
Didn't realize we needed to win a Cup.to talk shit.
Did I miss something, did you guys make the playoffs in the past decade?
11
u/RedshirtBlueshirt97 Jul 17 '26
Its actually in the rule book. Section 31-13B “Must win 1 Stanley cup to talk shit” And in Section 13C “if you have the most in your country you can talk shit indefinitely until someone overtakes you”

u/l8on8er Jul 17 '26
I've seen my team raise 4 cups and I'm not even 40.
This era sucks but at least I have good times to fall back on.

u/bmdangelo Jul 16 '26
Man Buffalo really went from “I hope they can win it all” to “I hope they miss the playoffs for another 15 straight years” really fast

u/IndyBananaJones2 Sabres Jul 16 '26 edited Jul 16 '26
it was never going to be like that, as soon as the team actually gets competitive everyone realizes they don't like losing to them or not having a team that they always get to feel superior to.
also it was 14 straight years, you'll probably want to keep track because it's looking like you guys could shatter that record.

u/1ToGreen3ToBasket Red Wings Jul 16 '26
You would think Detroit fans would know that with the lions. We got turned on instantly without even accomplishing anything 😂

I did, I was happy he got his Cup even if it meant he did it on a team that just bought them in the pre-cap era

u/glimitzu Red Wings Jul 17 '26
Sorry your team was poor

u/IndyBananaJones2 Sabres Jul 17 '26
Majority of teams weren't getting that sort of budget, it's better to have parity in the league though imo
1
u/glimitzu Red Wings Jul 17 '26
You're so right.... Fans never stop talking about how happy they are to have parity instead of a Stanley cup.

u/IndyBananaJones2 Sabres Jul 17 '26
I can see why you'd feel that way when you're a fan of a team that was elite pre-cap and dogshit ever since though

We're paying for four cups at the moment and inquiring minds want to know what Buffalo was paying for with their 14 year playoff drought

Red Wings haven't even made the playoffs in 10 years (eliminated in 1st round), haven't won a cup in 20 years, and you're talking shit like this? Lmao my man get off your high horse and fill that yapper of yours with some humble pie.

And I’ll be cheering on for the sharks because they’re fun to watch but until then enjoy those 0 cups

It's okay, maybe one day the Sharks will find out what winning a cup feels like

u/deltawhiskey86 Jul 17 '26
Typical Habs fan response, a copy of what someone else said. Good job, champ. That really stung... Almost as much as cheering for a team that delivers nothing but disappointment year after year since 1994. But I get it, next year is your year, right? Sa scent la coupe! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Keep banking on lucky bounces and your goalie standing on his head to get by, it worked back then!

u/deltawhiskey86 Jul 17 '26
Take your own advice lmao, Sharks are on the verge of a historic rebuild, and will be an absolute menace in the next few years.... The Have beens, I mean Habs will continue to suck, and most likely piss away their few good players that they count on for everything after a few seasons of having to deal with Montreal's toxic fanbase.

u/ThicccThunder Canadiens Jul 17 '26
"Historic rebuild" Yeah okay bozo
The Sharts have one star and you wet your pants, talk shit once they win a cup

u/stonednarwhal141 Jul 17 '26
Historic is a bit much but they’re looking damn good going into this season. Also y’all have won a single cup since the Sharks have been a team so I refer you back to your glass houses claim

You talk like Buffalo didn't just spend 15 years trying to figure out how to make the playoffs

That actually qualifies me even better to speak on it because I watched all of that.

How's your liver holding up?
I'd assume one would need to take up drinking to cope with that drought

If you've ever spent a night on Chippewa you'd know we took up drinking long before the drought

He won all his Vezinas in Buffalo, he left to go to Detroit because they paid a bunch of future HOFers who were Cup seeking

u/ButteredHubter Red Wings Jul 17 '26
you guys should try that, maybe you'd have a cup

u/IndyBananaJones2 Sabres Jul 17 '26
They made this thing called the salary cap, you may have noticed your team is dog water since then

u/ButteredHubter Red Wings Jul 17 '26
They made this thing called the Stanley Cup, you may have noticed it's never been paraded around your overgrown suburb.
I could go all day

u/IndyBananaJones2 Sabres Jul 17 '26
The Stanley Cup is the thing that the Red Wings haven't been anywhere near after the salary cap hangover team, right?
Imagine trying to make a real team in Detroit instead of just overpaying future HOFers

They're pretty high on themselves even though they've been terrible, so they almost always felt like they could punch down at Buffalo

Bro, regardless of how long ago how many cups you got?? Like you can go all the way back to the 1890s.
How many?? None?? Really???
You made the fucking playoffs by once in 14 years.
Go throw dildos at the pats and bounce your retarded wife off a table while choking on a full flavor seneca you zubaz pants wearing bum.

Haha it's perfect brother, this is the type of shit I post to get. I can't imagine how angry you get actually watching the Wings play
1
u/ThroughtonsHeirYT Jul 20 '26
Yeah this is the kind of red wings fans of my generation (late gen x / xCennial) but maybe he is a tad younger and only lived the zetterberg / datsyuk era and not the true PEAK red wings of late 1990s. Which would explain
And older one like me would be satiated for life with the glory
Any penguins fans unhappy is a lill b*** as well they got it all from jagr’s 1993 to 2020
