As someone who made a similar vent recently, yeah, I had no clue how many huge Crosby fans I followed until the last couple weeks. In addition, I met a lot of these people through K/T fandom, and didn't realize they were really Pens fans until we were already friends. I'm guessing the same thing is happening to other people; their fandom circle was more multi-team than they realized, post Hawks fandom.
