Constructive criticism and complaining are fine. Declaring that you're bailing on the team if they lose a game then citing your fandom has people in a furor.

Whether we've been fans for 30 years or 3, we're all frustrated.

Doubling down when it's been made apparent nobody is interested is what makes it a trolljob

Ho boy. Would be nice to get some stable goaltending again. Also, the Dome is embarrassingly quiet.

God, I wish this team could play some NHL quality defence. They are just a gong show in their own end.
