Does Ottawa have fans anymore after the Karlsson trade?I feel so bad for Ottawa fans. They’re like, hockey’s book of Job right now.
Does Kessel really get a lot of hate anymore? I’ve heard that Toronto’s media picked on him a lot, but he seems to be a well-loved player.I must always defend the honor of this legendary everyman, this Wisconsin chucklehead, this American hero, from every onslaught from the press that I feel is unjust.
The media in Pittsburgh attacked him over the summer, they floated a lot of rumors about him and talked about rifts with the coach but it was baloney. A lot of those people were angry because Phil didn’t want to speak with the media after the Pens lost. He didn’t play as well in the spring because he was hurt but he had one of his best years ever otherwise. He is very well loved by the fans!Does Kessel really get a lot of hate anymore?

They still have Dutchie Duchene but he won’t be obligated to stay too long, either. I suppose it’s a matter of whether he wants to stay close to his hometown or try to win a Cup somewhere else. I would expect he’d want to leave. He can always move back to Ontario later but a player only has so much time to compete for a cup!Does Ottawa have fans anymore after the Karlsson trade?
