DBTB User Stats for 2015
DBTB is just outside the top 10 of the SBN Hockey sites in terms of page views with nearly 3.4 million hits in 2016 – we are still well behind the pace of the top sites, so if you know other Sabres fans who are not DBTB readers, consider it your civic duty to first inform them of this site and secondly to check in here multiple times every day.
Where the DBTB community really shines through was in the comments, FanPosts and FanShots, where there was an uptick in all three categories – no other hockey site was able to show improvement year-on-year in all three of those. In fact, DBTB also had the second-most FanPosts of any SBN hockey site! You did this!
So without further ado, here are the top readers who submitted FanPosts –

Thank you once again to every single one of you who participated in the blog or just stopped by last year, here’s hoping for an even better year in 2017!
