'We will have fond memories of both Briere and Drury, but their legacy is now a short one. Had they been loyal to Buffalo, the fans, and their teammates, they would still be here, despite management's obvious blunders. Had they signed long term deals, they probably would have won a Cup and seen a banner in the rafters, and maybe even seen their own numbers retired next to the French Connection. Then again that wouldn't really matter, because they couldn't see the banners from their mansions in other cities.'
