Hockey players earn significant salaries for their performance on the ice, but they shouldn't face relentless criticism and hateful comments on social media, especially after a tough game.
Yesterday, the New York Rangers staged a remarkable comeback against the Islanders, securing a thrilling 6-5 overtime victory in the Stadium Series outdoor game held in New Jersey.
During the game's closing stages, a penalty committed by the Islanders Scott Mayfield resulted in a crucial goal for the Rangers, ultimately leading to overtime.
While it's natural for fans to feel frustrated after a loss, the level of hate directed at Mayfield on social media is unacceptable. It's important to remember that players are affected by what is said about them.
