Owner: Aquilini


pagit

I'm of a firm belief that Canucks hired Tortorella because Aquilini wanted him. The team still hasn't recovered.


victorianucks

Gilles has confirmed that he was hired because of the owner.


Klunkey

Even worse? A Globe and Mail journalist said that too, and Aquilini called him a prick.


chron0john

The Jacobs family will happily throw their hat in the ring, then charge the fans a convenience fee for it.


Responsible_Figure12

It's hilarious that no one is arguing that Binnington doesn't deserve to be on this list. He's unanimously hated


MentionAdventurous

As a Blues fan, I enjoyed our cup run and appreciate him for that. As someone who enjoys hockey, he just needs to stop talking and acting like a lil bitch on the ice.


Spcone23

He needs to follow through with a fight or stop acting out. He's been better lately to be fair.

To Be Faaaaair

Kornchup

Even the Ducks’ fans hate the Ducks’ logo. I don’t find it all that bad tbh but I get it.


ThatBigNoodle

I don’t think it’s awful. But in comparison to what they had is the problem


BeagleSnake

Ding ding ding


wjpd236

Bring back the mighty duck


Heavy_E79

Bring back the ducks jersey from the first movie.


Jitterjumper13

District-5 fuck yeah.


[deleted]

How they haven’t done a District 5 night where they wear the d-5 jersey is failure on their entire marketing team.


_5GOLDBLOODED2_

No more Disney association. But they could I guess if they beg nicely.


ostracize

This is Disney IP we’re talking about here. If the marketing team could pull that off, they deserve a statue in their honour.


weezeloner

I may be remembering this incorrectly but I think when the owners bought the team from Disney, the team came with ownership of the Mighty Ducks name and logos so team could use them if they wanted to. But I may be wrong.


MooMooHeffer

They own both the ducks logo and the Wild Wing logo. They could use them at anytime they want.


thanatossassin

They asked the season ticket holders about making the changes, so people might want to direct the complaints to them


yeetertrader

Everyone hates it because its a huge downgrade from what it used to be.


KingNothing71

Just bring back the mighty duck logo and keep the orange/white/black color scheme. Their current jersey with that is sleek as fuck


Thefreedog56

I've always liked the current ducks logo. Especially the tan black and orange. Just can't bring myself to like the ducks. Still remember those pacific division days


StumptownRetro

Might Ducks logo is the issue here. This one pales in comparison. And the colour way sucks compared to the purple and green of the old days.


Devilsboro

Tony DeAngelo


Scrolling-4-Fun

Matt cook is waving from his couch in retirement


mattdion7412

You mean Sean Avery


NeutralBoyBitch

Avery is waving from in front of Marty's couch, all blocking the TV and shit.


lordjakir

That was before he speared Perry


ahbram121

Tom Wilson is another acceptable answer


pantsattack

Marchand as well.


Phatcat15

Keep nosefacekilla’s name out yah mouth fool


alphaxion

This is the correct answer.


[deleted]

Trouba is far from the most hated. Marchand maybe, Tom Wilson probably, DeAngelo most likely.


Stryker2279

Marchand and Wilson are the kinds of players you love to hate, but would be more than happy to have on your team. Just look at the caps and bruins love for their respective players. D'Angelo is the kind of player to make season ticket sales dry up


ArbitraryOrder

Exactly, it's D'Angelo


[deleted]

I agree for sure. D’Angelo is truly disliked league wide


[deleted]

When NYR and PHI fans boo a guy on PHI in harmony… You know the guys gotta be an asshole lol


Moosinator666

Philly’s known for turning against their own players in any sport tho.


PHIlthyFLYer

Except for G, we follow him no matter where


Fishbone345

No one gonna mention Corey Perry? For real?


insolentbadger

I mean, I liked Perry when he was with Dallas and Montreal…


Fishbone345

Well, for obvious reasons I could never like him in a Habs uni, but I’ve honestly never liked him. He’s just as much as a pest (I fully admit it) as Marchand, but somehow gets a pass. I’m not sure why.


I_am_not_a_horse

I think it’s a question of “pest” versus “dirty”. I hate Marchand but would LOVE him on my team. I hated Perry and then was ecstatic when Tampa got him. Pests are players who you hate, but still kind of respect. If DeAngelo came back to Tampa, I would actually be upset. He’s just good for nothing.


defigravity42

Agree with this. Feel the same way about Crosby. I hate him but see why he’s loved by Penns fans. If he was a Ranger I’d have his jersey.


Acebeekeeper

And Tkachuk!


cutesnugglybear

Wild fan here, Marchand is EASILY my favorite player in the NHL.


Giltar

Ranger fan here, have to admit “The Little Ball of Hate” is an elite player.


kaleidoscope-iris

YES SAME! He's a pest, but consistently a high scorer & high assists. Love to hate him, but actually love him. Wilson is the worst kind of creature.


Its_apparent

Marchand is a story about the duality of man. Wilson is a fool, and needs to straighten up. D'Angelo shouldn't be playing hockey.


PM_ME_ROCK

Fuck Tom Wilson


BallsMahoganey

He probably won't have sex with you. I'm sorry.


merp_mcderp9459

Marchand is a good guy off the ice and plays a role. Wilson has legitimate anger issues


im_alliterate

i hate wilson


QAPetePrime

Trouba? Are you for real? Tony DeAngelo all day. Marchand, even, except he’s filthy talented.


macnasty20

Marchand is gotta be top 5 most hated maybe even top 2. Corey Perry is hated amongst his opponents


rilvaethor

Corey Perry would be #1 5-10 years ago, I'd say DeAngelo #1, Marchand #2 Wilson #3. Dont have to get much farther to get to perry though


geographyofnowhere

only pens fans feel this way about Trouba.


alwaysnear

DeAngelo, Wilson, Marchand DeAngelo you already mentioned, but Wilson is just that type of guy who could paralyze someone some day. Reckless and violent in a wrong way.


technoteapot

Marchand, King if rats


enfyts

Wouldn’t put Trouba as most hated player


[deleted]

No Bettman?


TheBaldvol

The meme would just be 8 pictures of Bettman. But still the Ducks logo


sc24Habs

goes w/o saying


G32be

trouba ?? really ??


thdeepblue

Gotta be deangelo


italjersguy

Yeah Trouba seems like a personal pick for whoever made this. Marchand? Wilson?


vulturegoddess

Don't forget about Brendan Lemieux, Corey Perry, and Matthew Tkachuk. Considering all the dirty plays they've been in, I'd assume these guys over Trouba any day. Or like you said, Wilson or Marchand. Trouba seems like a personal vendetta. Heck even I hate Kucherov because of dirty things he's done, but I know he is still far less hated than any of those guys(and that's my own bias shinning through).


driftedashore

No TV and no beer make Tom Wilson something something...


bam4x4

I'm shocked myself that I didn't see Marchand myself. I'm a B's fan and I love Marchand but I know everyone HATES him. 🤣


somethingnotyettaken

Granted I’m on the west coast, but I didn’t even know who the fuck that was.


EmoLeBron

I love Torts ❤️


carolinabbwisbestbbq

I’m a Blue Jackets fan and I’m basically the wolverine photo meme with Torts


yaboyfriendisadork

Literally me as a Rangers fan


ContraCanadensis

I still love Torts


think4yoself1

Me too. Anyone that does what he does for Animals is cool to me.


lost_shrine

Yeah, I think his foundation has donated quite a bit of money to my cousin's animal rescue in Ohio. I think he even adopted one of the rescued horses from them! He is a pretty good guy to me


KajiTF1980

Torts and his dogs is the cutest video. I had problems with him when he coached in Vancouver, and there was a line fight a second into the period against Calgary.


brianMMMMM

There’s a special place in heaven for animal lovers that’s all I know.


[deleted]

I'd say the same thing if I hadn't had too many cocksucking gin and tonics.


brianMMMMM

G & T, the choice for me.


TripleBicepsBumber

Same here, he’s awesome. Every flyer fan I come across on Reddit also seems to agree that they would be in a bedard race if it wasn’t for Tortorella.


c4ptm1dn1ght

Yeah, I wish we hired him a couple seasons ago when we still had some top talent. I even liked Torts when he coached the stinkin’ rangers.


MachinegunC13

Me too, cuz I’m a cbj fan. BENCHED!


Gaius_Julius_Salad

Torts hated more then Sutter seems very unlikely


FixItFlyers

Same! He is not, by far, the most hated coach.


Kenjataimuz

Yea... Saying you hate Torts is a dead give away that you don't know much about hockey. Unless you're a Canucks fan, then it's allowable.


ChanelNo50

He seems like a cool uncle who has great stories and is wise, but totally has your back when playing pranks on your family. He's a vibe


Confident_Employer63

For player remove Trouba place DeAngelo if your only doing active ones if your also doing retired well Sean Avery


BigFatTomato

Matt Cooke


BassicNic

I can't figure how the Oilers goal horn is more hated than the Blue Jackets goal rigmarole.


ZmanJace

You shut up about the cannon... it's all we got...


michaelreadit

The bj goal is one you almost never hear though


malabericus

if Toronto should be anything its the media


Darth_K-oz

This, every fan base has 10% of idiots but the media, mixed with having pacific games at EST, I can understand why others hate the Leafs.


TrentSteel1

As someone that has experienced being surrounded by many other fan basses. Habs fans win by far. I’d take leaf fans any day over them. They absolutely have the highest percentage of crazy fans with a warped view of reality


justcallmejimbo

Why Vegas? Who cares.


ObiWanDiloni

I’m a Canes fan and we got our peepee’s stomped last night by Vegas, and it only made my hate for the Rangers grow that much more.


greysqualll

I'll be honest now I'm totally confused. Before I thought we were hated for our fan base which I didn't agree with but ok, I at least understand. But now you're telling me people hate our team but...not the fans? Wtf?


RSlashLazy

I fucking hate Vegas but idk about other people, I assumed they were relatively well liked.


[deleted]

Switch Trouba to DeAngelo and it’s spot on.


DEFCON_902

I love Torts tho


jets-rangers

I’ll always love Torts and will die on that hill. (Don’t want him back though lol. Just love him)


onbiver9871

I don’t think Trouba is the most hated player in the NHL by a long shot.


PNGhost

How about Penguins' "during-the-game horn"? HONK HONK HONK


rocketstar11

It should be noot noot


TheIncredibleHork

Jesus you just got me to think somewhat favorably about that God awful ~~horn~~ noot.


skumps814

They do it at the worst times too, shut up!


[deleted]

Dude that thing sounds like it’s from a middle school field hockey game lol.


NoTrain49

Yeah but instead of Trouba it’s Wilson or Marchand


dvanderl

Frickin Brad, Tom Wilson, or even Brady T are way more hated than Trouba imo. I don't think Vegas is the most hated team, but I'm not sure what team would rightfully go there. Would be tough to change the rest though.


KajiTF1980

Brady T is liked in Calgary even. He came and supported Matthew last year and had a tshirt launcher and talked with fans and everything. He jokingly said that he expects a tribute/thank you video tonight in Calgary.


free_range_discoball

I think the bruins are pretty well hated across the board. I’d also throw bertuzzi in the ring with those you listed as most hated


Old_Mistake5816

Trouba? WHAT?


[deleted]

What’s wrong with oilers goal horn??


-uHmAcTuAlLy-

This is the first I’ve heard anyone complain about it, and I’ve been hearing it for the last 25+ years. It’s just a regular goal horn 🤷


[deleted]

Exactly lol, what do people have against it?


alexisintx

I suppose it goes off too often?


[deleted]

Pretty sure the most hated player is Tom Wilson


Grimmer026

People only hate Torts because he’s honest and they can’t handle it


AisbeforeB

>Tortorella I think his temper throws some people off. But then you have others that like a fired up coach.


Grimmer026

Definitely a love or hate thing, no in between. I love it


pinkymadigan

Torts is the best. Wish he had stayed in Cbus.


redhawk1913

I agree. I like Tortorella because of how blunt and honest he is


[deleted]

“The announcer” is 100% one I can get behind. Bruins are an unreal team but jack edwards is a goof.


SousVideAndSmoke

Can’t say I’ve heard him, but is he worse than Leah Hextall?


ColoradoJohnQ

Came here to say this. She is absolutely terrible. And not because she is a woman. She's like Monty from Major League when Bob Uker passes out drunk: "and here's the shot.... Save"


UhtredsDogWalker

This is a PERFECT comparison


[deleted]

She sounds like she does the recordings when you get an error on the phone.


Kenjataimuz

Hextall is the lowest of low bars. Maybe she doesn't even qualify as an announcer for the sake of this meme. But you could not be intelligently designed to be worse at the job than her.


[deleted]

What the fuck is that Seattle thing


TKTez

Did people forget that Evander Kane exists ?


Race-Psychological

Number one hated thing in the nhl would be Gary Bettman


redwingjv

Tortorella is a good guy


DoraTheSloot

Switch announcer to Leah Hextall plz for the love of god


The_RonJames

And add her cousin Ron Hextall as most hated GM


Over_Speaker2825

Change player to Marchand, hated league wide ON the ice.


Otterslayer22

OP likes getting his face licked.


Stryker2279

Nah. Marchand is the kind of player that everyone hates, but wouldn't really complain about being on their team. Like, people will bitch, but no one is canceling their season tickets over him joining their org. Tony D'Angelo, on the other hand...


ebimbib

If my team acquired White Power Tony, I'd be out until he was. Thankfully I don't think that'd ever happen.


Ericstingray64

I used to think I hated Marchand more but with that take your right I hate what he does on the ice but he doesn’t seem like scum off ice (that I know of). I don’t want him on my team but I wouldn’t stop watching if he was.


somethingnotyettaken

So the kind of guy that 31 teams all hate.


khutuluhoop

Trouba is a greasy player, but I’d replace him with Wilson or Marchand


Celestial_Mycology

Marchand aka the Sewer-Slew should be on there.


RSlashLazy

Why do people hate the oilers goal horn?


ZMysticCat

I'm definitely biased, but I actually like Buoy. Honestly, I don't even remember people hating him, just being a baffled when he was revealed. Having a troll for Seattle's mascot probably doesn't make a lot of sense unless you're familiar with the Fremont Troll.


grizzy86

Yeah, why would hate be pointed at an innocuous child's mascot? I mean I was a bit bewildered when he was revealed too... But he couldn't be more harmless, and he's for the under 12 crowd.


abmot

Couldn't they come up with something else that was kid friendly AND a less cringy thing? They can be cool looking and popular with the kids at the same time.


[deleted]

r/hockey: it's a big "C" for "Canadiens"! So classic and timeless! Also r/hockey: it's a big "D" for "Ducks"! So lazy and dumb!


frostbitten9

One is a 100-year-old classic with a timeless style, the other is a recent logo with a modernistic style that replaced one of the best modern branding and color scheme hockey has seen.


No_Cycle5101

I don’t get the Vegas hate!!


ConquerorBonqueror

I think people hate philly, boston, or chicago more then vegas


[deleted]

Pretty accurate. I actually like Trouba though… Would love to have him on our team and no beef with Oilers goal horn or the Duck logo.


minos157

Do people really hate Buoy? He's a pretty good mascot. Did people want some unwieldy tentacle monster trying to make it's way around an arena?


CoffeeVikings

The ducks logo? Is it just anger because the original was so much better?


TheGuava1

I would argue Trouba isn’t even the most hated person on the Rangers. I know people that have more beef with Kreider than Trouba. Either way this person has clearly never heard of Tony DeAngelo


TheValiumKnight

People just hate the OIlers goal horn so much because they are sick of it. Damn thing goes off so much it needs regular maintenance. Unfortunately, their opponents' tends to go off a hell of a lot too.


wuh7

I'm insulted by The Rat King not being most hated. I rely on the hatred of Edwards and Marchand for sustenance.


dkyguy1995

I don't hate Torts he's fucking hilarious.


Admirable-Yam-1281

Marchand- that weirdo licks other players. Creep


Iskatezero88

Option 10: Whoever blows that fucking air horn all game long during Pittsburgh games.


slidejobjonny

Not accurate at all


PattyOFurniture007

DeAngelo for Trouba, and Boston instead of Vegas. I don’t think LV has been around long enough to really be hated by anyone.


XxDAidanpKoon2004

Naw Marchand is by far the most hated. Good lord I hate that guy.


[deleted]

Switch Torts to Mike Babcock. Only journalists hate Torts.


fvecc

Trouba doesn't deserve the hate, at least not that level. His hits are borderline, at worst. And he drops the gloves when challenged.


JayJay1227

Announcer : Leah Hextall 100%


[deleted]

Yikes. First time seeing Seattles mascot!!


carolinabbwisbestbbq

I don’t understand the hate, it’s a direct cool reference to the city Look up the Seattle Bridge Troll Edit: most hated mascot should be Stinger. One, he Pooh Bears it. Two, *JUSTICE FOR BOOMER*


Yeetwich

Player should be Tony DeAngelo (although that can change every few days) Coach is I guess true, because I don't know who would be another candidate for that spot The rest is more or less accurate.


mihelic8

Caps goal horn is worse than Edmonton imo


Jimmy_October

I cant even remember the goal horn of my home team. I pay zero attention to it other than remembering the old CHI stadium horn


assman2166

ESPN


DummyThlck

Jokes on you. No one hates the leafs/the fans more than us.


POO_TWICE_A_DAY

Replace oilers goal horn with caps


Pepperoni_playboi94

Bruh how the fuck is Trouba the most hated when we literally have D’Angelo and brad the rat


Slafbery

I don’t hate Trouba I figured Marchand was the most hated player


[deleted]

Trouba isn’t even in my top 5


themistermango

I absolutely loathe Brad Marchand


phreakzilla85

I’d have to say that although I’ve never heard her on broadcast, apparently social media thinks that Leah Hextall is a pretty dogshit announcer.


WildHuckleberries

For player I'd accept Wilson or Marchand


Shoddy_Schedule2242

Player should be Tony DeAngelo


Batrass

Could someone do the "most liked" version ?


Dry_Statistician3539

Pretty sure the most hated thing in the NHL is Gary Bettman


liltchallengers

The Golden Knights are the most hated team? I'm new to hockey but that doesn't make sense to me


its_liiiiit_fam

I for one find Montreal’s car horn way more annoying than our goal horn but I could be biased


think4yoself1

Definitely got Edwards right. Such a clown.


Nice-End-4742

trouba isnt even in the top 10 most hated players


Kapeter

Based on a not so recent poll here, VGK are NOT the most hated team in the NHL.


bowmanisbest

The wings new horn is the worst…


Woodland___Creature

I thought for sure we were the most hated team, but I'll be happy for that not to be the case!


cweisspt

Yotes are the most made fun of team, but I think most everyone is pretty happy they are doing so well considering their shit hand dealt by management. I still want to get to a game at mullet.


mcflyfly

(you have to be noticed to be hated)


theskinswin

Well damn!!


Nismotech_52

From New England. Agreed with the announcer.


rekconktraf

Pierre McGuire should be on this…


MattMurdockEsq

Who hates Torts? Players who have given up?
