That’s what it looks like when someone is obsessed with someone else and finds out they don’t love them the same way back. So desperate and pathetic it’s sad.
As Cecil said, people can be mad about the negotiations all they want, totally fair. But I think people resorting to misogyny and mocking Gaudreau’s manhood are desperately trying to cover for the realisation that this is a business and players have higher priorities than their fans. Viewing the idea that Johnny was comfortable letting someone else make the decision (if that’s what happened) as a problem with Johnny is just a way to avoid dealing with the fact that the problem is actually with the way some fans view the player/fan relationship.
Guys like GS Skier and Flamesfan05 talk a big game about what they think Johnny is, but they’re irrelevant nobodies. It’s not like Johnny is ever going to read it, so they’re just projecting their own nonsense into space to make themselves feel better. And when you look at how these guys talk about other players and members of the Flames organisation, you quickly realise that if someone from the Flames owed a fan anything, it wouldn’t be these kinds of fans.
Constantly trashing players and management, but as soon as they get rejected, then it’s actually a character issue for the person that rejected them. Pretty pathetic.
