What's one thing that would make you completely quit your team and never come back?

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

I was thinking the same thing.

Although I don't think it's a case of "stop being a Pens fan" and more a case of "I'm going to take a year off watching hockey entirely" if they don't fire Sullivan.

I’ve larged dipped out the last few years since we’ve flat out refused to shitcan Sullivan.

Watching hockey is supposed to be fun and bring us fans joy.

Mindlessly tuning in to watch Sullivan continuously and cluelessly miss the playoffs consecutively all the while lazily throwing shit at the wall to desperately see what (if anything) sticks??? Yeah no thanks.

The fact that Sullivan is also seen as some sort of untouchable/unfireable God of a coaching prodigy by our dipshit schmuck ownership group is equally pathetic and gross.

I’ll catch highlights here and there online but I’m nowhere near the rabid Pens fan I was even 10 years ago. Life happens…priorities change as we age.

Hell I don’t even have cable/Centre Ice anymore….

Allegations of staff or personnel covering up sexual abuse.

Because always in 100% of cases, allegations are always true!

Ah the 2020's

 

[Schennanigans]

If they didn’t win the cup for almost 70 years, oh wait…..

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Because always in 100% of cases, allegations are always true!

Ah the 2020's

That's why you investigate the allegations instead of:

giving the person the option of resigning or being part of an investigation
never investigating when they choose to resign
give that person severance and a bonus
have their name engraved on the Stanley Cup and let them spend a day with it


Had the Blackhawks handled it properly and performed a thorough investigation, there's a very good chance it would've prevented other young men from being assaulted.

Hiring bowman might cause me to step away

 

[ohheyhemsky]

Hiring bowman might cause me to step away

"What does this do about hockey?"
"Made a mistake, paid for it."
"Stop being a snowflake."

There. That's the usual garbage responses to this. Now that that's out of the way, I'm with you 100%.

 

[choi]

Back in the days, I thought I was sure I'd quit if Alfredsson left the team...
Then it was Erik Karlsson...

And after almost two decades, I still haven't been able to quit. The team's been garbage, our ownership and GM were worst in the league (for such a long time, too), but I keep coming back to watch my Sens play. I really hope they play well next year. Go Sens go.

 

[Nogatco Rd]

The Knights are my backup team should the Kings ever suddenly disappear.

Good call, and if the knights fail you go with the squires.

*slow clap*

 

[vadim sharifijanov]

if they hired any of those now-reinstated rape-burying reptiles from chicago

 

[SladeWilson23]

I'm not pretending to be principled here. I'm biased like everyone else and Wilson did it to our guys.

If Wilson never Wilsoned the Rangers, I'm sure you'd love him on your team.

 

[Machinehead]

If Wilson never Wilsoned the Rangers, I'm sure you'd love him on your team.

That might be fair to say.

 

[danktopshelf]

Whether it be a player they draft/sign/trade for, a staff member they hire, etc. What's one thing that if your team did, would make you quit on them and never come back?

For me if I find my team protecting confirmed abusers, I would be anti-them asap. Which is honestly why I'm glad the Sens at least cut contact with Formenton well before the investigation for the 2018 Hockey Canada abusers.

If the Panthers moved to Quebec City, I'd be out. Conversely, if the Rangers are ever no longer affiliated with the trash Dolan family will like them more.

 

[johnnybbadd]

I think that the most right answer would be a POS owner in the ilk of Ballard or Daniel Snyder if they are the owners for a long enough time. Snyder is a recent example of someone alienating a fanbase to the point that they are still a laughing stock in the league and must do a whole lot more to repair what has been done to Commanders fans.

 

[TheNumber4]

As a member of the best fanbase in the League (now confirmed). I’ve seen it all in Edmonton and the #LOILTY persists.

 

[VaporTrail]

Get a female to do play by play

 

[Ignatius]

Kyle Beach

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Also to add now - if they hired Bowman, Quenneville, or MacIsaac.

You'd have to be an extreme piece of shit to still be a fan of either of them are hired for your team. I'd be done with the Penguins if they hired any of the 3.

Because always in 100% of cases, allegations are always true!

Ah the 2020's

I mean the Hawks literally covering it up is fact. Same for Team Canada.

So yeah, hurr hurr cuz itz alwayz true!

Well there's some pretty damn good examples right there.

 

[Leafshater67]

If they resign Marner to a big ticket, I’m out. Sick of watching that group of losers disappear every year and they’ll be doubling down one too many times for me.

Ian Cole, Matt Araiza, Patrick Kane,

So yeah some are false, some aren't dude

Should never be too woke(hate this word but this is you)

 

[LudwigVonKarlsson]

I'm close to reaching that point due to Mike Sullivan.

must have sucked winning multiple cups with him

Bahaha cry me a river brother you gotta be kidding me , let me guess if you get another generational talent 18 year old you'll tune in again

must have sucked winning multiple cups with him

Can't believe what im reading from pens fans , these are the same fans that swear crosby didn't save their franchise from going bankrupt because nobody showed up before

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Ditto.

Other teams can have my my money. 32 NHL teams. Don't live in a city with a team very easy to move on.

 

[Sniper99]

If one of Harold Ballard's grandkids/great grandkids, bought the Leafs.

 

[BB79]

Happened this year. f*** SLC

Why F SLC? All they did was buy the team after Murelo or whatever his name is tanked it for years. The guy didn't even show up for the last game. He's probably glad the land auction was cancelled so he can go play with his millions elsewhere and has a scapegoat he can blame now. Seems to me, he should be the one people are f'ing

 

[Sniper99]

No argument here.
