Canadiens Forward Deletes Instagram After Being Harassed By Angry Fans Over Mistake That Led To Playoff Loss

Seems like a lot of speculation. What’s the source for the claim that he deleted his instagram “due” to being harassed by fans?
Want to use Social media as a famous person? Use one where you are *ANONYMOUS*.
This just opens a direct pipeline of crazies.
Same fanbase that harassed Jackets comments section last season after securing their playoff birth and relentlessly mocked and spammed their posts. Even the pinned Johnny Gaudreau memorial post. I expect nothing less from them
Habs fans are nuts. I asked a question in a thread yesterday if Slaf was taken out for concussion protocol after his fight since I couldn’t watch the game and got downvoted to heck.
Poor Kirby man. This is probably my least favorite thing about sports in the age of social media. The worst people on earth get real bold behind a keyboard. It is just simply never that serious, let alone to do this over a mistake that evened a series at 1-1.
Why go after him specifically. They were handed a gift at the end of regulation with that cheap hit from Sabourin and didn’t capitalize on it.
Hilarious behaviour considering the whole team was dogshit in OT. Did they register a single shot?
As a professional athlete you’re paid to take the heat and from fans when you are at a team event, or on the ice. Not in your personal space, or time.
This and the B.S. that Oilers fans pulled on Skinner last year really isn’t a good look for Canadian hockey fandum or the younger generation.
There’s part of me that believes that no one is crazy enough to message someone to die.
I hope it’s just bots or something. People should be revoked internet access.
Good! Delete everything!

Every team will have a jackass fan somewhere out there. People just got to keep their anger to themselves and just enjoy hockey. Kirby screwed up big deal get on in life, everyone makes mistakes. Plus the gambling craze out there doesn’t help peoples insanity.
Yeah these aren’t “fans” just low-life casuals that get off on this shit and degenerate gamblers.
This is why I dont mind the government up here passing more laws to regulate the internet. Shitty people hiding behind anonymity online deserve to be outed.
Habs fans are more unhinged than leafs fans and always have been. People just let their hate for leafs fans get to them.
This is why nobody wants to play in Canada. If you’re gonna flame Dach then flame Suzuki, and Caufield who have been invisible at even strength.
