Ope, MN women sports leading in championship wins and more

The spinelessness of Wild ownership and leadership, hiding behind it being Hockey Day in MN yesterday and refusing to acknowledge the situation, says wonders about where their priorities lie.
Watching this made me even more upset about last night. I left the game and felt disappointed in both myself for going and how everything was handled by the Wild management. I just emailed the customer service email (who knows where it goes out to) since they don’t respond on social media. Doubt anything will be done but good to be heard and share my opinion.
Maybe there’s some karma here because the Frost won today’s game. *shrug*
I don’t believe it was necessary for the Wild to do something yesterday. I hope they learn from it and do something in the future.
I will still support the team and have no problem going to future games. I would be hypocritical if I didn’t.
Fuck the Wild organization for their absolutely FAILURE with this situation
Let’s go Frost! The only championship hockey team in St. Paul. 🏆
Frost better front office leadership and better playoffs results. The Wild can learn something from the Frost.
The Wild not doing anything probably saved them some embarrassment. There are definitely some fans of the Wild that would have booed or heckled if they tried this same tribute.
See Wild, that wasn’t so hard. Do better.
Can’t wait for the mods to take this down for no reason.
Real talk. If you thought the Wild org would do anything in memory of, or hell even in ACKNOWLEDGE of the events, I’m sorry but you’ve been willfully sticking your head in the dirt for quite some time. And that’s fine, honestly I’m not going to begrudge anyone who does that, in fact I can respect it. You want hockey to be your escape, to keep those worlds seperate, you do you.
But I’m sick of this shit happening time and time again and a bunch of people going “oh gosh I’m sooo disappointed…I’m going to talk about this on twitter/reddit!” I don’t respect that. Shove your disappointment. We saw it with the Pride stuff, we saw it with the BLM stuff, we’re seeing it now. Either you keep the outside world completely separate from your enjoyment of the sport (see the people I talk about above), or you fucking DO something about it. The Wild org does not give one single shit for your disappointment as long as you keep buying merch, continue watching ads, and going to see games. There are many, easy ways to enjoy the game without contributing monetarily to an org that at best doesn’t care, at worst behind closed doors endorses it.
Finally, common fuckin Frost W. I’ll continue to support those gals as the day is long.
Women always leading the men
men’s sports teams are too popular to take political stances. although killing civilians shouldn’t be political they’ve found a way to make it political so no moment of silence.
women’s sports are frankly irrelevant and their viewers are more likely to be liberals who won’t have an issue with this. this won’t make any fuss outside of the small sphere of people who care about the pwhl
Championship Org
Wild are a gutless, spineless organization
I thought about what the Wild org was going to do.
The best option giving the timing, IMO, was to stay out of it because not all the facts were in place by game-time and the situation was developing.
Cancelling the game on hockey day (after consulting with police stating it would be safe) would have been a political statement which can be met with controversy especially before all the facts are in. People are at the arena fundamentally to watch a hockey game.
Everybody has opinions at that point what happened, so everybody could remain having their opinions without causing conflict.

The Frost are also doing a food drive on Wednesday(1/28).

Why do you have to compare things creating a divide? Just note what they’re doing without dragging others down.
