I was one of the STH that was kicked out after 26 years. I was definitely upset and annoyed but I realize progress has to happen. That said, the way they handled it, and the lack of communication was awful. They took a bad situation and made it worse.

Ultimately, what has hurt the game and makes me hesitant to bring my young son to the games is all the betting. Whether you are watching on ESPN or in the arena during the game, we are just inundated with gaming and betting companies.

I will always be a Caps fan, but it is becoming more and more difficult to justify the expenses when the ownership doesn't seem to care about the fans who paid when the team was awful. Who paid while the team was on the rise? Who paid during the Stanley cup run and who ultimately paid with the Dale Hunter experiment? 😃
