Long story short, a while ago, he laid a big but clean hit on a Calgary player with 2 minutes left in a game the Wild were gonna win. 1-2 weeks later MN played Calgary again and a guy started a fight against Dumba less than a minute into the game, as "revenge" against the hit (I hate fighting in hockey. It's a relic of a time that's gone). Dumba gets hurt from the fight, has to have surgery, and is out 3+ months. This offseason, Dumba signed a pretty big contract. Any fan with a brain was more than happy to have him locked up because he's still really young, improving, and a great player, but the facebook/twitter fans fucking HATE him. Past years, he got so much hate on social media. And now this year he's been doing awesome, and these same fans are lamenting his injury. I don't take social media fans seriously but I just read the comments sometimes for the laughs. 1. The Flames are one of the most annoying teams (sorry Ogurisama). They are good, but they're also full of pests and dudes who think you need to fight every three minutes. 2. I remember the hit/fight part. And I don't get why he gets so much hate. From what I can gather, he's a decent puck possessing defender (other than last year, always has a Corsi above 52), and can be physical as well. It might be because he's not a large, towering defender (which tends to be a thing for neanderthal hockey fans), but he's got a solid game. Reminds me of a young Kronwall. --- ...
