Who is your most hated player of all time? - NHL Forum

Past Marty Mcsorley --- cheap player
Now Sean Avery. Guy has some talent but does things that you just don't expect to see any more in the NHL. Classless.

Jarko Rutuu guy is the ultimate pest

Mine is a bit different and it is Eric Lindros. They way he started in the NHL left a very sour taste for me against him. He was drafted by Quebec Nordiques (sp) originally and refused to play for them. He had not even played one NHL game before he started making demands, and it was rumoured that his parents had a lot to do with it. He demanded to be traded where he went to Philadelphia. I feel he should of at least played in the NHL before making demands. He was a great player but his actions made me dislike him. JMHO

Bertuzzi is the worst. At least Ruutu and McSorely are admitted badasses. Bertuzzi was a pussy about his ice rage incident, cried for the news cameras, etc. It's HOCKEY not ballet.

Bertuzzi oh don't even get me started. I am a Canucks fan while Toronto is my least favorite, but you are right Bertuzzi is and has always been useless. He ranks right up there to me with Mcsorley.

I dunno. McSorley is a jerk through and through and that's fine by me. I just don't like guys that can't take the heat of being a basher. He's big, tough, and wait for it,.. he cries at press conference because he feels bad that he made a stupid mistake. Frick.

Guys who are true bashers don't get out of control BECAUSE they are assholes by nature -- they're used to being angry, and they are in control in that mode. Bertuzzi doesn't use his emotions -- they use him.

He should be a soccer player, being able to cry is an asset in that sport.

can't really go wrong picking somebody to hate these days. with a turnover rate as high as the nhl's you've gotta expect to find something for everyone to dislike. my pick, jeremy roenick. what a mouthpiece.

who do i hate? I've hated many over the years. Some I liked then disliked when i got to know more about them. I'll name some.

avery, pronger, ott - no explanation necessary.

Ruttu - he got a ten game misconduct penalty in the nov 11 game vs the habs. what exactly for, I cant remember. But he was being a general douche.

Marty McSorley - I have disliked him since ah - 1993. If anyone knows about it, it was his dumb illegal stick that cost his team the kings a shot to stay in the game of the scf that year vs the habs and have a chance at the cup. Since then the Kings have never made it back to the finals. Those of you who know about it - and those hockey fans who are like me, old enough to remember it, I hope we never let him live that one down.

Lindros for being a cocky general douche. He also once spit beer in a woman's face in the mid 90's and got the cops called on him for it. I remember that.

Bertuzzi - is it really necessary for me to say why i don't like him?

Hal Gill - game 4 of the scf 2008. Nuff said.

Crosby. No need to explain really why I'm no fan of his.

Brodeur. I love him as a goalie but he wasnt the nicest human being. Ditto for Patrick Roy.

Mark Messier. I thought of him as a good captain - unti,l i read about what he did when he went to vancouver sometime after winning the stanley cup with the NYR in 1994.

If I think of anyone else I disliked I'll write them in.

KEEP the fighters get rid of the lippy little shi$% who stoop to the lowest level of insults. All of these a__holeplayers who hit cheap, and say crude, racial, and sometimes very low comments about family are the ones that I don't like. Get rid of 'em.
