@jRuutu This attitude towards bad LR influences is not something this league has come up with because we all just want to sing and hold hands together, it's a significant factor in every real life sports team as well. LR cancers or however you wanna call them can directly hurt a teams performance, if people are assholes to their teammates, if they are lazy or rude then it hurts team cohesion and often times, ultimately, your performance on the ice. If there are too many of those people it can lead to bad habits becoming entrenched and a part of the teams culture, if its only a few then their behaviour can still lead to fights and arguments in the locker room, to teammates not willing to give it their all for each other anymore, to yelling and arguing during or right before/after the game or to players making the wrong on-ice decisions. Ultimately, if those things become public it can lead to people asking out or leaving in FA, or to new players not wanting to join the team, just as it does happen around here.
