Those kind of reactions has no place in our sport.

Let's put that in context. Two days ago, the Hurricanes won Game 2 against the Bruins but lost their substitute goaltender Antti Raanta after a collision with David Pastrnak. Some fans and analysts think that the Bruins forward did it on purpose to injure Raanta.
Pastrnak reacted to this by saying that these people don't understand anything about hockey if they think that he tried to injure him.

And there's where things went wrong. Some Canes fans modified his Wikipedia page and put the following sentence: "Pastrnak's son was born on June 17th 2021, and died from a gun shot from his father six days later."
That's just clearly unacceptable.
