A Team and fanbase that prides itself on being the villain or heel, shouldn't have anything to say when they eventually lose. because thats the whole point of a "heel" That being said, the team that takes the cake for the sheer number of "strikes" that make other people mad, is probably Vegas. Boston, Toronto and Rangers are all up there too. But they've always been up there. But a lot of it is honestly just the fanbase. Toronto, Pompous fanbase and Media overload, zero cup wins since 67 to back it up. Rangers, Much of the same, they act like an Elite Franchise, yet they've only won 4 cups, and only 1 since the second world war.. And The Bruins. also perrenial chokers as of late, 1 cup in the last 15 years, plenty of finals failures and playoff chokes.

I think part of the reason Vegas is a 'villain' is because they were successful so quickly. Prior to that, expansion teams were expected to be terrible for a long time before getting to the playoffs. But Vegas did it right away, so there's a sense they didn't "pay their dues".

I dont have any major dislike for Vegas but I could see why other fans hate them. Esp if they are your teams rival. Yeah they had to pick the right players that made them successful, and guys like Karlsson and Marcessault took their games to another level with them compared to their past teams, but Bettman basically handed them a competitive team right off the bat to hopefully expand the market in Las Vegas. If that franchise started off with some rough years, I believe that it would've been tough to get a fanbase built as quickly as they did. But it also would've given them less hate from other fans. And as a Devils fan and Rangers hater, it would be a disgrace if Bettman had to hand the Cup to Jacob Trouba. He'd probably be the first NHLer ever to elbow the Cup instead of raise it.

@@shinyuta But those guys were already good players. The fact that they got better in Vegas doesnt mean that they were stiffs beforehand. Karlsson on a good Columbus team was buried on their depth chart. Got to Vegas and went from 10 goals to 40. But how about them basically being gifted Shea Theodore? There were lots of factors during their expansion draft that benefitted them moreso than even the Kraken's one. Probably because the league knew that Seattle was a market that didnt need a winner right off the bat to be a success attendance wise. I didnt say that they needed to get to the Finals in their first year. I said that they needed to be a competitor to build up that fanbase slowly. The fact that it was built up quicker because of their success is irrelevant and not my point here.

Maybe it’s because I’m a Panthers fan, but I really don’t get the “villain” role everyone wants to paint us as. We didn’t circumvent the injury rules like Vegas does; we don’t have obnoxious fan bases like Boston and Toronto; sure, we have pests like Bennett and Cousins but it’s not like teams like Boston don’t have Marchand and Maroon; Tkachuck is the kind of star the league dreams of having, someone who is tough and confident but clearly has tons of respect for his teammates; and we have guys like Barkov and Bobrovsky who you can’t help but root for. And then there's Paul Maurice, who has quietly become one of the NHL’s winningest coaches, actually has a sense of humor and gives some of the best press conferences in the NHL, not to mention he's on the hunt for his first Stanley Cup as a coach. I truly do not get it, unless it’s nothing other than jealousy from “traditional” markets who can’t stand a team from Florida, who up until recently was a punching bag/joke line/relocation news magnet, having success.

Dude this all fucking day. Grew up in South Florida as a child and will forever be a Panthers fan. Have loved a team for the past 30 years that has been shit for like 25 of those years. People don't understand that. Other fanbases also like to act like their shit doesn't stink and there players don't sometimes make dirty plays.

Ever since the Blackhawks got rid of Kane they’ve been completely different. The change was happening when he was there but once he was gone it felt like a brand new organization to me.

I was shocked to find FlamesNation channel on YT. They spend half the podcast ripping on Oilers. I didn't realize there was groups like this out there cos in Edmonton, we don't even think about Flames for more than a few minutes yearly. Flattering.

As a Dallas fan it’s Benn no doubt. I make jokes about wanting benn to throw an elbow when we are losing. He’s known to be rough and Dallas fans love it for the most part from what I’ve seen and heard

As a Vegas fan I accept and understand the villain status. It is deserved and I’ve not loved all the things the organization has done especially Fluery. But ownership got it done and brought a chip to Vegas a city of 2.2 million that had nothing to cheer for prior to VGK.
