Okay, so lets try to keep this modern, well say from 2000 until now.

Who is the best player your team has had, that the fanbase seemed to hate?

Who is the worst player that the fan base loved for some reason?


For the leafs, I will have to say Phaneuf for the first one. Guy is having a great season, and just gets roasted by everyone on the board no matter what he does.

For the 2nd one... Probably Tie Domi. They guy was a 4th liner but some people call him a leaf legend.

Bobby Holik for best hated. The guy was great here. People just didn't like him because he was a Devil and he made too much money.

Worst loved was probably Dubinsky. Not a bad player, but he was made out to be a legend by some.

To put it in perspective, they were similar players. One was burned effigy, and people cried when the other one was traded.

Caps, currently.

Our fans seem to love Marcus Johansson . Who is one of the most useless forwards I've seen in a very long time.

They also hate Brooks Laich. The most consistent guy on the team aside from a few injuries.

For the Panthers (from 2000 to now):

Best/Hated: Olli Jokinen, with Nathan Horton and Michael Frolik close seconds.
Worst/Loved: Insert any player with potential who never came close to it.

We don't hate Laich, we hate his contract. I hate Mojo, he played well the first two months and now he's the Mojo we've all come to know. Some fans are still blinded by the great two months he had to see that he's been absolute garbage aside from the goal he scored today. I hope we trade him while his trade value is high.

Best/Hated Gaborik or Nash the hates absurd for them. Hank got way too much hate last year though, but I don't think enough of the fan base actually feels that way just a small vocal group.

Worst/Loved Avery. The guy was okay for us but under torts he was pretty bad. I don't think he understood offsides. Ranger fans acted like this guy was Gretzky or something.

Worst of all time tied between Kostka and Glass
