Dallas Stars CEO: "We are losing customers for supporting BLM"

Daily Wire
So Canadian citizens kneeling during our anthem and walking out on games because a rapist resisted arrest is pissing off Americam hockey fans?
*shocked*
From my own view - IDGAF what they do on their own time. I respect other peoples views on things and respect their right to protest if they want. However, this past week was the first time since late February that I was going to be able to sit down and watch their game on TV. Last time that happened was when I was at the AAC to see them play the Blackhawks in person, and I shelled out a pretty penny for a club level seat w dozen rows up from the glass. But apparently the fans don't matter in this - the rapist came first, frick the fans.
So I'm saying frick them for putting a rapist higher in their priorities than a fan that has been to games and bought their $250 authentic jerseys.

According to a report, the president and CEO of the NHL’s Dallas Stars said the team has lost a number of season ticket holders because of the team’s support of Black Lives Matter and protests dealing with race.
Brad Alberts stated, “But we/I stand by our organization’s commitment and support our players 100% to express their views,” as the Dallas News reported.

This is what's called the financial version of "frick around and find out."

Dallas specifically had a BLM support murder 3 police officers on live television that sent the city up
Many in Dallas haven't forgot that.

They are somewhere in between “get woke” and “go broke”

All they had to do was stay apolitical.
BLM doesn't give a frick about NHL. They want to see you bow to their pressure. That's all.
Fans don't want to see politics mixed in sports.
If they keep doing it, we'll keep it tuned out. For good.

Alright kids. Who can finish this sentence?

If the stars came out supporting Blue Lives Matter, they wouldn’t have lost these season ticket holders
Know your fricking fanbase
Being woke doesn’t fly in the NHL

It’s not my fault if you can’t figure out 2+2.

The problem the NHL had was not external it was internal. They had Matt Dumba and Wayne Simmons on the Diversity Council being very vocal about the NHL shutting down. Of course both of their teams have already been eliminated.

Is he calling hockey fans racists? Just his base?

Yeah well we've also had cops murdering people for no fricking reason here and people don't forget that either.

No but there's a ton of soy Canadians and Euros in that league so it shouldn't surprise people. To be fair I'm sure Boston fans are a nightmare to deal with if you're black.
