I didn't want to complain because I'm sick of talking about the Pens, but this thread was very QED about that, yeah...

Koivu, maybe?

That's one that stuck out, but I thought he was mostly disliked by Minnesota fans? Only other one I could think of was Vanek.

How about Dumba55?

Re: Ask Meme

(Anonymous) 2016-05-30 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Do people hate Dumba? He's not really a borderline player afaik and he's not a pest. Most of the fans of other Central teams I've seen seem to be vaguely fond to indifferent about him.

Re: Ask Meme

(Anonymous) 2016-05-30 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
He seems to board a member of my team every time we play them, so fans of my team do not like him as a rule. I'm surprised you haven't seen it.

Re: Ask Meme

(Anonymous) 2016-05-30 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
As a fan of a central team, I'm pretty indifferent to Dumba.

Maybe they're a Preds fan who doesn't like homewrecker Parise?

Re: Ask Meme

(Anonymous) 2016-05-30 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
sa

The dislike, not the boarding. That's pretty subjective.

Love:
Giroux
Ovechkin, Backstrom
Malkin
Toews, Shaw
Thornton, Burns, Hertl
Gaudreau
Eichel
PK Subban

Do not love:
Dustin Brown
Roussel
Jamie Benn
Tom Wilson
Letang
I want to stick Crosby in here but I don't even know what my independent feelings are anymore, because of fandom overexposure. Whiny player, nice dude IRL?
All these dudes with DV/SA investigations who are somehow still playing

Looking over this list there's a clear "yeah he's an asshole but he's MY asshole" theme which is kind of hilarious, but at least I acknowledge it.

I was the anon who was totally on board with the venting about Pens fans until the follow up comment about Dupuis. If you go out of your way to avoid it, I'm sorry that it's still annoying you, but OP chooses to follow Pens fans on twitter and then complains when those fans are sad about a fan fave whose sob story is currently all over Pens media and mainstream media too since the Pens are about to play the SCF? That's peak "Dead Dove Do Not Eat." There are a thousand things to be vented about wrt Pens fans and none of them require callous comments about a guy who risked his life to play hockey (and the first few comments were all incredibly callous and lacking empathy).

"yeah he's an asshole but he's MY asshole"

sums up this Blues fans feelings on Backes

Re: Ask Meme

(Anonymous) 2016-05-30 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh my god, I agree about Clutterbuck! The only reason I have is that whenever a team I like plays the Islanders Clutterbuck plays really well and the announcers keep talking about it and I go "fucking Clutterbuck AGAIN!!!! Ruining things by playing well!!!!". Part of this is probably because his name is so memorable to me, lol.

He's never boarded anyone on my team, and we're in the Central. I've seen a bit of low-key hate for the team in general, because someone on my team seems to get hurt almost every time we play them, but nothing against him specifically.

D-Blues-A

I think that's the general feeling of most Blues fans. It makes it easier for me to sympathize with people who are fans of other borderline players/pests, even when I hate those players.

"God Backes, you're such a dick," is a frequent gleeful refrain in our house during games.

na

Not a Blues (or Central) anon, but I am so involuntarily fond of Backes. He hates all the same guys I hate, plus I like his quotes to the media. The story he told about Steve Ott was so sweet.
