I think it's hysterical that the NHL made Andrei Vasilvesky their golden boy by basing all their advertisements around him only for it to backfire.

Because now he's the joke of the entire league and his team is a laughingstock.

@sarabee1995 Yes, and I'm incredibly anxious. Boston HAS to win. I haaaaaaate the Bruins but if they lose then the Blues get their first Cup and I'm going to stab someone if that happens.

@BlueMetalChick Lol, yeah, I knew you hated the Bruins, but wow, you hate the Blues more?? Why? Because they are more local to Chi-town?
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@sarabee1995 It's not necessarily that I hate the Blues more than the Bruins, although in this case, I just might. But Boston has won Cups before. St. Louis has not. And it's a league-wide joke that they have no Cups despite being the oldest expansion team in the NHL, having been founded in 1967. We gotta keep their legacy of failure intact. So yeah, Boston sucks, they have a fan base full of drunken Massholes who call people niggers and faggots when they lose games. But I'm willing to overlook that if it means keeping the Blues from winning it all.

@BlueMetalChick Hey! I'm (at least tangentially) a Bruins fan and I'm pretty sure I'm none of that (although I've been called a Masshole more than once).

But okay, sound reasoning, insults notwithstanding. Were they really the first team after the original six? I did not know that. I've been learning a lot from you today. ;)

@sarabee1995 Well, they were in the first expansion pack. After the Original Six, an additional six teams were added all at the same time. Two of them are now defunct, those being the California Seals and the Minnesota North Stars. The other four were the Los Angeles Kings, Pittsburgh Penguins, Philadelphia Flyers, and St. Louis Blues.

What I said was true though, the Bruins Twitter page made "#DumbNigger" trend for 19 hours straight because Joel Ward scored an overtime goal that eliminated Boston from the playoffs, and when Chicago won the Stanley Cup on the Bruins' ice in 2013, the fans chanted "fuck you faggot" at Jonathan Toews.

@BlueMetalChick Wow. I was not aware of either of those things. Both are inexcusable. 🤦‍♀️

@sarabee1995 I blame the alcohol. Sober sports fans are MUCH less obnoxious than drunken ones. Even fans of my own team are cunts when they drink.
sarabee1995 · 26-30, F
@BlueMetalChick I literally hate being around drunk people. Sorry if that's judgy, but it's true.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@sarabee1995 I couldn't agree more.
sarabee1995 · 26-30, F
@BlueMetalChick Oh that's right??? I think you posted once about never touching alcohol, right? I'm not quite a never touch it kinda girl, I do enjoy a glass of wine, but I've never been drunk.
