"The town of Dunnville represents the ultimate small market. Small market struggles with the attendance figures is our big challenge here. But what really makes this dump the ultimate challenge for a franchise are the people that live here. Small market spending power, small market mentality and an extremely limited understanding of the game of hockey. I know that I am not alone in our organization in saying how embarrassing it is when friends ask me which team I am running. I think a lot of us really regret the day that this hovel was selected as the home for the Blazers." (Completely disparaging comments directed at the people of Dunnville, made behind the scenes at Fan Appreciation Day at the Dunnville Arena by Blazer GM Paul Roedb. Intended as "off the record" musings by the organization's oft-maligned boss, the hostile observations of the local citizenry were anonymously passed on to the local Dunnville Star, which posted the audio clip on the newspaper's website.)
