The Ottawa Senators were applauded for taking a firm stance with Alexei Yashin during the 1999-2000 season. He wanted to be paid 10 million dollars, even though he still was under contract until 2001. This turned out to be the final straw for Ottawa Senators fans. Alexei had three contract holdouts during his 8-season tenure with Ottawa. Toss in being held pointless and swept by Buffalo and Toronto during the Stanley Cup playoffs in 1999 & 2001, and you've got the poster child for the overpaid underachiever.
Yashin was lazy and not respected.
@@GVH1305 truth. There's no doubting the talent of Alexei Yashin. He was good for 40 goals and 90 points per season. Unfortunately, he wasn't somebody that would step up in crucial situations.
It's only appropriate he joined the Mike Milbury clownshow afterwards.
Sergei Fedorov is just now known for being the coach that pulls his goalie at the most random situations. He's doing all that in the KHL.
It works, though.
Being mad at a guy for wanting his idols game stick is stupid
Agreed.
this was a media hyped BS story nobody really cared but a couple of writers who wanted to stir muck
Corson was loved in Montreal!! Nobody hated him.
Exactly. I'm a Leafs fan and even I knew that.
I think you never heard the Pat Burns famous quote … "qui mange d’la marde"😂😂
I hated him!
Jean Perron and Burns had hard time with him and his father too who wanted to run the team itself. Some of Corson off ice behaviours could be explained due to his Crohn syndrom.
Ahh I come from a Habs family and they all hated him because of Pat
Now I know why Detroit does not have #91 retired .
“Joe Louie Arena” 🤦🤦🤦
Defenseman Larry Murphy played for the Leafs for two seasons (1995-97) and became the scapegoat for Leafs fans, getting boooed constantly in Toronto.
Yes, but that was the fans being stupid. Leafs fans seem to always need a whipping boy on the blue line. Murphy, Berg, Gill, Cross.. On and on...
@@man-bagdammit2297 Brian McCabe and Jake Gardner were two other blueliners who became whipping boys for the Maple Leafs.
Justin Holl until last season
Just to elaborate on the Messier point: he and Keenan were brought onboard just a couple seasons after they were the captain and coach, respectively, of the NYR who narrowly beat out the Canucks in 7 games in the 1994 Stanley Cup Final. Messier was also somewhat of a consolation prize after the Canucks pursued Wayne Gretzky in free agency and very nearly landed him. Linden was a hero in Vancouver, having played the better part of the ‘94 playoffs with broken ribs and Gretzky even said during his interview in Vancouver that he had no interest in taking the captaincy from Linden which made it sting that much more when Messier got it. I could be wrong, but I believe Linden actually offered Messier the ‘C’ after the room became divided between the two of them but regardless, Linden is an icon in Vancouver and never should have been put in that position. I didn’t like Messier in Edmonton or NYR (the way he lost his mind while receiving the Cup still haunts my nightmares) but I absolutely despise him after his time in Vancouver.
Another thing about Nedved: The year that the Canucks drafted him he was the 2nd pick after Owen Nolan but another player by the name of Jaromir Jagr went 5th to the Penguins. Now imagine if the Canucks had both Jagr and Bure. At the very least we would have won the cup in 94.
They will never see a cup
@@stevebuckley3971 just like the post-six team Leafs.
@@Gerhardium you are so right 👍
The reason noone picked Jagr except the Penguins was because Jagr said he had no interest playing in the NHL as a tactic because he wanted to get drafted by the Penguins to play with Lemieux.
@@kanegarvey848 Makes sense. He did idolize Lemieux after all. He even looked a little like him so much so some have confused the two in the past. Still there were better picks then Nedved the Canucks could have made such as: Keith Primeau, Keith Tkachuk, Slava Kozlov, Sergei Zubov, Derian Hatcher and Martin Brodeur.
so, the inside skinny on Shayne Corson that you didn't hear in the media. Love him or hate him as a player sure, but apparently he had a habit of hitting on and sometimes having an affair with teammates' wives. He had an affair with Patrick Roy's wife, and that's why he was traded. In Toronto, it was Alex Mogilny's wife. There was western road trip out west that Corson was injured and stayed home... in San Jose, Mogilny (who hated flying) missed that game and flew back to Toronto for "personal reasons"... it was Corson and Mogilny's wife.
When you spoke of Yashin, you never mentioned him leaving for the Islanders. You just showed him in a NYI uniform and kept speaking about him as if he was a Senator. Poor job there.
Was thinking similarly. Why talk about his Ottawa years while he's wearing an Isles jersey. What makes the rub worse is, as I am an Isles fan, Yashin was a trade not a free agent. The Isles sent a young defenceman by the name of Zdeno Chara to Ottawa for Yashin. Ugh.
Shane Corson was loved by Montreal fans! You did get the "Vancouver hates Messier" thing right!
I knew Mark's Vancouver tenure was a disappointment. But I'm shocked at what else has been revealed during his three years on the West Coast.
Canucks fan here and I was admittedly not a fan of Messier during his tenure in Edmonton but after taking Wayne Maki’s number and the captaincy from Trevor Linden, not to mention the losing record and his entitled attitude, I still hate the guy. I think most Canucks fans do.
@@keir13 I am not a Canucks fan, but in my opinion, if Messier was an honourable man he would return all the money the Canucks paid him, apologize for the jersey fiasco, and also to Linden and to the fans!
@@nathanadrian7797 Agreed! I’m still pretty salty about NYR beating Vancouver in 7 games back in the ‘94 finals and then to bring in Messier and Keenan just seemed like a slap in the face to the team and the fans.
If you haven’t heard it already, there is a three part miniseries podcast called UNREEL: West Coast Express that touches on the whole Messier thing and just the general attitude towards the team at that time. Lots of great interviews with former players and coaches. Even Gretzky was interviewed! Well worth a listen if that’s your style.
Loved Corson, no one got tired of him. He was a heart and soul player.
Nedved’s goal that ended the marathon game four in the first round of the 1996 playoffs against the Crapitals never gets old for Penguins fans like me.
Man, I remember watching that quadruple OT thriller in 1996.
Im in Toronto and have never heard anyone say they didn't like Corson (not in my experience) personally I loved him as a player. Hard nosed with a bit of a touch. He was up in years when he played here though and suffered from mental health issues. If I remember he also had addiction issues which are very common for someone dealing with behavioral disorders.
I was also trying to remember any Leafs fans actually disliking Corson lol. Although to be fair, I don't even remember him sitting out the playoffs in protest. Probably because he was being a healthy scratch anyways, no one really noticed or cared ha ha.
I absolutely hated Corson and Tucker at the time, mostly for how they seemed to take the dumbest penalties at the worst possible times. But I have to admit, if memory serves, that I was in the minority
Yes, I remember something about him dealing with anxiety and panic attacks during that time. He wasn't "hated", but he wasn't useful at that point. But you can't hate someone for getting older.
It was in the papers all the time, not sure how you missed it. The guy was a dick.
Corson was the reason why Mogilny took time off and left the Leafs. Corson screwed his wife and that was the cause of divide of the locker room. FCK Corson, im a Leafs fan.
The thumbnail got me. I got into hockey in 2000/2001 in the playoffs, because the guys at work said there was no way Toronto could beat Ottawa in the playoffs. So I cheered for the Leafs. Who beat Ottawa in four. A major factor in that series was Shayne Corson turning Yashin into a complete non issue. He became my favorite player. I have his number on my Leafs home jersey. (Tucker on the away, Gary Roberts on the alternate) I hated that he resigned and signed with Dallas, but I didn't hate HIM for it.
Loved Gary Roberts on the Leafs.
Toronto ran Larry Murphy out of town....bad move. 😜🤪
Yeah, it came back to bite them on the ass.
Toronto wanted him out of town but he took a wheelchair
@@volklupo5133 Adding more insult to injury was Larry earning two more Stanley Cups with Detroit in '97 & '98. He won four Stanley Cup rings during the 90s and induction to the Hall Of Fame in 2004.
Messier was an absolute powerhouse in both Edmonton and New York, but his time in Vancouver was a bizarre anomaly. Nothing about it worked or made any sense. I bet he'd take that time back if he could.
Yeah he should have stayed in New York and maybe go for another playoff run while they still had Gretzky.
He might but he'd keep the money. As would I.
I think he wanted to really mess the Canucks up.
He wore Wayne Makis #11 after Wayne’s parents asked Mess not to wear it. His skills went faster then his hair. He should’ve retired when his legs did in 1997.
@@toddmurphy3245 I was unaware of the Wayne Maki situation. Just shows what a class guy "Mess" is right? Yet another bad move on Vancouvers management. Although I can forgive them, "Mess" not so much.
The thing with Messier was... the Rangers did all that when he came and they got a cup out of it, so I'm sure Vancouver was really not wanting to change that, it just so happened that the Canucks sucked so much that Messier couldn't do anything with the team
Wayne Maki may be loved in Vancouver but he was hated in Boston because when he played for the Blues he tomahawked Ted Green over the head caving in his skull.
Messier was a cheapshot. Never liked him.
That’s because you aren’t an Oilers or Rangers fan.
I’m a big Canucks fan, and that Messier move turned sour real quick. It was exciting to get a HOF player, but I knew he was the catalyst for ousting fan favorite Trevor Linden, and his play was pretty sub par for those years.
messier was washed up while playing forvacouver
You misspelled Fedorov. But yes, there are Wings fans to this day that despise him.
Yep. And we miss Joe Louis Arena, mostly since the Wings never played in a place called Joe Lewie arena.
@@benhill7216 Americans use to pronounce Louis like in every other places in the world before. Saint-Louis was pronounced the original French way if you're watching old Western movies, per example. It changed during the 20th Century. It is not St. Lewis.
One of the dirtiest thing about sports is how billionaires have convinced the masses of fans that its the millionaire player as the one who is merely in it only for the money.
Honestly, its hard to ever fault a player for a hold-out. Especially pre-cap days where it was more or less the wild west. You never know how long a players career will last. They need to cash in while they can.
Many of the holdouts in the 80's and 90's were not free agents. they had contracts but didn't want to honor them.
@@shawnwharry952 Sounds like some of the propaganda that would get flung around, yes, haha
@@shawnwharry952 examples or just saying things? I genuinely hate the laziness that follows the arrogance of a post like this. Who or you’re a liar? And not one or two, you said many so please let’s hear several or you’re a joke.
@@jaydubaic21 Paul Coffey is the first to come to mind
You are right when it comes to players using legitimate tools, like signing an offer sheet (Federov) or holding out when they don’t have a contract, those are legitimate negotiations moves and shouldn’t warrant hate.
I would however hate a player that holds out when they are already under contract, like yashin in the late 90s.
about Shayne Corson in St. Louis, when Mike Keenan stripped Brett Hull of his captaincy in 1995, he appointed recently acquired Shayne Corson to be the next team captain. Phil Kessel during his time in Toronto belongs on this list. He is by far the most hated Leaf player in history.
Sore because Phil's won Stanley Cups and Toronto still sucks and can't win shit?
I disagree
No one I know hated Kessel (lived in GTA), some werent fans but no one really hated him
Red Wings fans have been spoiled with players giving up big paychecks that they deserve. Federov was 100% right in his actions. Every one of you would have done the same.
Jason Arnott is a Devils legend. Edmonton might hate him, but we love him!
He's from my hometown, great guy, great player.
That Game six goal is club legend
I'll remember Arnott for that time he was nearly drilled by the piece of Oak bench then Head Coach of the New Jersey Devils Robbie Ftorek threw onto the ice during a game against the Detroit Red Wings. The Wings scored on a play where a Detroit player drilled a New Jersey player into the boards, causing an injury to the New Jersey player which should have resulted in a play stoppage, but didn't, leading to said goal for Detroit.
Also interesting how half these players spent part of the 1990s playing for the Oilers. I think the Oilers fans had to have booed the front office at some point for the years of misery following their Cup win to start the decade. It's now 2023 and we have only had one Cup Finals appearance since that year. So where does the problem lie? Players? Coaching? Management? Ownership group? Fans? Media? Player development? Scouting? Or is it coming from all sides at once?
This is the year my man. If we play tye playoff like we've been playing like we have for the past couple months
Love it .there's more for list
I was almost coached by George Burnett he is such a nice gentleman (Bellville) family issues I could not try out for a goaltender position I still have ohl training skills two off my cousins played for Bellville robbie Kingston/ Owen sound Jackson current no. 22 amazing in the faceoff circles hard working young gentleman gritty and sticks up for his teammates and he is a mechanic in the summer good guy
Messier is well liked in Edmonton. We have a street named after him.
Yashin was also hated by Islanders fans
As an Avs fan- Sergei Federov was the Red Wing I worried about the most
RE: Nedved. the gretzky stick thing was over done what you missed about nedved was he was dealt quickly because there were allegations of a sexual assault and the team was done with him at that point ) should have drafted Jagr of course
Not surprised half of this vids players were from the country in the east, that is killing people in an attack war.
As a Flyers fan l hated Roman Chechmanek , was great in regular season , but after he stopped getting paid once the regular season was over his play was just laughable!! Most teammates hated him as well!!
It was so bad that Patrick Lalime allowed two measly goals, in five games. I swear to God, that guy could've won a cup if he wasn't shitting the bed at the ACC!
I'm surprised Sean Avery didn't make the list.
Too obvious...
I’m surprised Eichel isn’t here-Buffalo fans sung his praises for the better of 6 years-until one day he decided to go against the grain…nobody wants to talk about that though! 😏😏😏
Oh, a player wanted to decide his own surgery, what a total ahole! Sabres pr did a good job trying to make him the bad guy.
@@ghostwhite1648 That they did, I don’t blame the kid, one bit, and I still don’t, I was at that game back in November and I was actually glad to see him get a hatty! 🎩🎩🎩
@@ghostwhite1648 After eight months of bullshit, a whole summer wasted, i’m actually glad that Vegas is where they are-If Buffalo doesn’t get in either Vegas or New Jersey gonna be my team for the ‘23 Playoffs! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
@@KHoltzie tage thompson has shown flashes of being an absolute stud if he can jump to the next level with consistency, theyll be set if they can dump skinner
@@ghostwhite1648 Yeah, I totally agree with you there Tage should’ve been given the C too, no disrespect to Kyle, but it should’ve went to Tage in my opinion
Gretzky took less money to go to New York to play with Messier, never asked for the C and Mess left after 1 yr then went back to the Rangers as soon a Gretz retired!!!
How the hell did Corson even have captain
I didn't know Shayne Corson wore the C in Edmonton.
I try to forget that he wore the C in Edmonton, or that he was ever here.
Kinda like that now with Canucks Fan's With J.T.Miller and Brock Boeser
Kovalev could have made the list too
Fedorov? Hated? That's a new one. Always thought Wings fans loved everyone they had at the time
i found jason arnott’s hockey card on the ground, now i know why it was there
Whenever people want Federov’s number retired I remind them of these antics. He doesn’t deserve it.
Corson is well liked in Toronto still
And Montreal
I remember him leaving the team in the playoffs and I believe it was due to health issues.
Well in Toronto you also liked Tucker so that’s quite damning in its own self.
When Yashin reneged on donating 1 million dollars to the Ottawa Arts Council....my uncle donated 1 million dollars to bail them out.
No he didn’t.
@oilersridersbluejays Uhhhh...yeah, he did.
Far too many fickle NHL fans today. Any franchise would love to have a player at this level, with the skill that these men had.
Kinda silly take. Of course you want good players, but to have them disrupt a locker room and your team performs worse overall is not something fans want.
Obviously you weren’t around in the mid 90s. There was a lot of crap from deadbeat players like Corson, Daigle, Yashin, et al.
What are you talking about? Yashin and Fedorov were world class top players. Were you watching hockey or just following the yellow journalism???
Stopped watching when you said Joe LOUIEY Arena....
Lol nobody cares
@@alexdwyer8591 maybe Joe does hajahahaha
"Are-NOT" got me. 🙉
tony deangelo should be on this
I liked him when he was with the Rangers. I don't understand why the fans boo him.
I also boo players that wont take a pay cut and stay with my team. Why? Because I am an asshole of course.
You forgot John Tavares lol
Montrealers still talk about how much they loved Shayne Corson.
How about calling "The Joe" by the correct name. Joe LOUIS - not lew-ee. Believe it or not, it's not a freaking FRENCH name
Kadri!
Nah Kadri is one of those players that you love to have on your team. All leaf fans harp on every player they have but when he was traded to Colorado everyone was sad he was gone. And I was so happy to have him win a cup with my Avs and it was sad to see him go to Calgary. Kadri is only hated by fans of other teams, but everyone loves him.
Kadri is a nasty piece of work.... exactly what you want on your team.
@BAaKeD15 I wouldn’t want Kadri in Edmonton. He’s toxic.
Evander kane on the jets lol
Shane Corson was well liked in Toronto. He suffered anxiety and it got to be too much
Alex Yashin in my mind will always bet the GREEDIEST player in NHL History.
Gustav Rydahl
Spelling?!? You got most names wrong, takes 2 seconds. That’s lazy
Federov was loved in Detroit period.
Exactly. I grew up with these guys and other than Messier in Vancouver, these players were not hsted by their fans. Maybe if they left the team but definitely not while they played for them.
I didn't mind Corson but he was an ultimate prick. So many stories of him being a total douche to waitresses and staff at restaurants. Berating them and not leaving great tops, if any
Shit on Leafs fans all you want but not one of them hated Shayne Corson
They’re almost all oilers 😂
Yeah. Messier is beloved here and in New York as well. People forget that Vancouver was pretty crappy in those days. I think Canucks fans had way too much expectations in a player past his prime playing for a crappy team.
He was loved in Toronto aswell
Despite the lower than usual points tally, wasn't Messier still the Canuck's leading scorer?
No. He was second every year.
@@miiqqula8639 but his ppg were almost identical to the leader in 2 of the 3 seasons. not exactly dismal for what canuck fans call a bust.
He was leading in elbows to the head for his career. NHL should have the Messier Dirt Award
A big favorite of the rodent Keenan. Both a couple of rats.
I’m an Oilers and Sens fan…I didn’t know Arnott was hated by our own fans lol…but I’m also 27 so I didn’t see him play
Doesn't Philly Hate everyone
From what I've heard, Corson was a great teammate. Loved him in Montreal.
🤣
Why does he keep saying 10 goals and 20 points ?? Like, does he mean goals and assists, Or does he just not have a clue about hockey ?? And seriously ...... Learn the name of the old Redwing's arena lmfao. 8n
An assist is also a point lmao.
As a hockey fan, I assume that when someone says X goals and X points, the remaining points are assists. 10 goals and 20 points = 10 goals and 10 assists.
Mostly Europeans, no surprise there.
Really?
Brilliant
3 out of 6 is "mostly" now?
Joe Louie? Fuck my ears
