I've heard this opinion before and it's odd.  Now, what if they go to a sports game of said team?

Only if they’re the emergency back up goalie.

Oilers fans are already turning on Jack Campbell.  He should have never signed there.

Campbell sucks. I’d rather have Koskinen back.

It’s funny tho: most of the really negative stuff I’ve seen re: Campbell has been coming from smug Leaf fans.

So apparently Mitchell Miller’s not draft eligible and can’t play in the NHL because he bullied somebody when he was 14.  Wut? 🙄

Quote
Miller and another teen-ager were charged with assault and violating the Ohio Safe Schools Act in February 2016, when they were accused of making Meyer-Crothers eat candy that had been placed in a urinal. Other accounts in a police report indicate the boys urinated on the candy before giving it to Meyer-Crothers.

Miller and the other teen then punched and pushed Meyer-Crothers, according to the police report obtained by The Republic. The report also says Miller lied to school officials about his involvement.

At the time, Meyer-Crothers had the mental ability of a 10-year-old, according to his mom.

Miller and the other boy admitted to the misdemeanors and were sentenced to 25 hours of community service and were ordered to write an apology through the court system to Meyer-Crothers, participate in counseling and pay court costs.

Joni Meyer-Crothers said the other boy broke down in tears while personally apologizing to her son, yet Miller has never personally apologized, she said, other than the court-mandated letter.

The Coyotes sent The Republic a copy of the letter that Miller claimed to have given to the victim and his family. The family said on Friday they never received the letter.

Joni Meyer-Crothers said one of the key reasons Miller and the other boy admitted to the crime and avoided a trial was because it was caught on a surveillance camera, and it would have been shown in court.

"It was absolutely brutal," she said. "Had he not pled guilty, the video would have been released. It would have been so much worse on Mitchell because of the brutality to our son … He's smashing Isaiah's head against a brick wall."

Apparently somebody like Evander Kane has the character to play in the NHL, but  Mitchell Miller doesn’t. 😂

The difference between the two is that Miller made his mistake when he was 14, and Kane made his when, checks notes, he was 31, 30, 28, 26, 25. 🤣

Hmmm I wonder why you picked Kane of all players, it’s qwhite a mystery .

Anyway I don't like Kane and he got more chances than a player with lesser talent would have, but that's the toxic culture of hockey for you.

Mitchell Miller didn't make "a mistake". He tormented a mentally disabled kid for years, and only pretended to feel remorse for it when he found out that he could get into the NHL if he pretended to feel remorseful.  His attempts to make amends amounted to sending one (1) message to his victim via Instagram. You really want us to feel sorry for this piece of crap?

He was 14.  I don’t feel sorry for him, but that’s not grounds to prevent him from playing professionally.  Especially when players in their 20s and 30s are held less accountable for their actions.  You can’t make somebody pay for their actions as a child for the rest of their life, while pieces of crap like Evander Kane continue to sign million dollar contracts with minimal penance.

He was 14.

He started bullying the kid when they were in Grade 2. That's psycho behaviour, it's no wonder the Bruins' players didn't want anything to do with the little prick. LOL

Quote
Boston opting to sign Miller did not go over well with Bruins players. Captain Patrice Bergeron said he was consulted about the possibility and was “on the fence.”

“The culture that we built here goes against that type of behavior,” Bergeron said. “In this locker room, we’re all about inclusion, diversity, respect.”

Boston forward Nick Foligno called the signing “hard to swallow.”

“Tough thing to hear for our group,” he said. “I’m not gonna lie to you. I don’t think any guy was too happy.”

Do you think playing professional hockey is some sort of fundamental human right he's being denied?
