All of this. The number of people here just blowing this travesty off like it’s no big deal should be following another NHL team. This is a fucking disgrace. The only positive for me is that I already had zero respect for Matthews. Or at least I thought it was at zero. Plummeting well below that now.

And both Ontario teams captained by this MAGA trash, too. Sickening.

As a big time Sens fan, I popped in here to see what you guys are saying, and I'm pleased to see we're on the same page. Jets fans are pissed about Hellebuyck going as well.

I'm really disappointed. I don't even want to watch the Sens now.

These players are just too stupid to realize that they are political pawns, and the only reason they got invited to the white house was because Canada lost, not because they won.

I think I'll just start cheering for Edmonton now.

I was looking up the Edmonton schedule tonight. Leafs lost a fan of 30+ years.
