Habs Fans Reactions to Drafting David Reinbacher

[HuGo Sham]

I'm not going to get too much into it, but, people use his name if they basically disagree with you. I thought he may have said/done something, but I should have just guessed it was people just being foolish.

if they do it to disagree, then they're f***ing idiots and have no concept of history.
Reinbacher did nothing but show excitement and class about joining Habs.
The gutless morons who decided to hide behind their avatars and throw a fit because Hughes didn't select the player they liked should be in therapy.

When stuff like this happens why do we call out a teams fans? Every team in every league has "fans" that would do this same shit! It is crappy people, not crappy "insert team name" people.

Well said. Posters feel the additional need for confirmation bias towards the teams they already hate.

It's all so juvenile and stupid

Maybe this is the reason why their prospects don't pan out. The emotional toll is too much.

 

[Moose Head]

Maybe this is the reason why their prospects don't pan out. The emotional toll is too much.

Or just shitty development since Serge Savard was fired as GM.

 

[John Mandalorian]

Are you suggesting Montreal is a emotionally traumatic wasteland for aspiring hockey players?

 

[Enga Olly]

I have a Habs fan friend that is constantly wishing death upon Kent Hughes for picking Reinbacher (among other things). Honestly Habs fans are a different breed...

Agreed but I would put Oiler fans in the same category

You’re really asking why a team’s fans get called out when this happens?

Because it’s detestable behavior and should be called out. As it should when any fanbase does it. Like when fans in the playoffs for multiple teams were called out for throwing stuff on the ice.

This time it was crappy Habs fans. Stop playing whataboutism. You accidentally said this behavior shouldn’t be called out. Unless it wasn’t an accident, which makes it worse

 

[Frank Drebin]

There's truly no low for us as a species. An extinction level event can't come soon enough.

hyperbole much? Reddit is that a way

 

[Some Other Flame]

But did they call the police?

Ya, if these reports are true it’s a bit disingenuous and off to say “every fan base has crazies!” It’s true, but in some places the issue seems worse, and this is about a specific instance where it seems to be happening. It’s worth looking into what that specific case is about so you can try to better things, instead of saying “nut jobs always exist, can’t solve it, let’s move on.”

[Brookbank]

He’s going to be a good player in this league. Unfortunately like anything there will always be a segment of each teams fan base that are just straight scumbags.

Could be Joulevi 2.0

Bunch of idiots jumping the gun as usual, even including HFboards. Nobody knows how players will turn out. People will be able to judge this draft around 2030. Anyone judging teams for their picks on the day of the draft is clueless.

This is true. But they passed on Michkov. This is after they passed on Shane Wright.

Habs fans. How do you like Marc Bergavin now ?

 

[Tachycineta]

I for one hope Reinbacher has an amazing career.

Scummy behavior, internet lets people get away with scummy behavior. I am not going to generalize this behavior to a fanbase as a whole.

 

[WatchfulElm]

Clickbait websites making spectacular headlines that confirms what people want to believe, even when it's not based on any real fact.

This is what happens when real news medias disappear.

 

[mjlee]

They should turn their ire on the man responsible och send threats and harass Kent Hughes. He's the same nationality as Robert Picton.

 

[JuJu Mobb]

Very on brand for Habs fans. They chased Subban out of town after he paid for a new children’s wing in a Montreal hospital. They don’t know what to do with nice things.

Prove it.

 

[JuJu Mobb]

Habs fans didn't chase him out of town lol

Their shitty ass management did, the fans were pissed. Subban was, and is to this day, beloved by habs fans.

People are now inventing narratives around shit that never happened.

Some people in this thread are just as toxic as the idiots on Reinbacher's instagram.

Hate Bergevin and hope he stays the hell away. As I said it's still way to early to judge drafts but so far I'm sure glad we didn't go with Wright, very, very underwhelming so far. I'm sure Seattle would go with Gauthier, Jiricek or Korchinski over Wright if they could do a redo.

This kind of thread is just a place for toxic people/trolls to come and bash another fan base.

Classic internet.

Was passing on Shane Wright a mistake?

I think we still have a good portion of the clowns that did the drafting under Bergevin. Ironically enough Bergevin left us some pretty good players chosen at the tail end of his drafting tenure (Guhle, Caufield)

But not Slavkosky ?

 

[Devonator]

Hab fans are no worse then any other fan base....if this had happened to the Leafs or Rangers or Flyers, you would also have a segment of over reactions.....it just that the Habs have one of the largest fan bases so thus you will have a subset of overly passionate fans that take things a little to seriously.....But to suggest that this is unique to the Hab fan base is absolute nonsense.....

 

[Rafafouille]

But not Slavkosky ?

How are they supposed to draft Slaf who went first with the fourth pick? Not sure I follow lmao.

 

[Mr Positive]

I'm missing something here

Why hate on a great young prospect coming to the team?

Did he do something?

 

[lomiller1]

Are Habs fans really hating on him? The ones I have talked to insist it's a great pick and that if a redraft were held today he'd go second overall.
