NHL Star Deactivates Social Media After Receiving Hundreds of Hate Messages
Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Mikhail Sergachev has decided to distance himself from social media in the face of persistent criticism regarding his performance on the ice.
The NHL star recently deactivated his Instagram account as a measure to safeguard his mental well-being amidst the barrage of negative comments and scrutiny.
Sergachev, a key figure in the Lightning's defensive lineup, found himself subjected to criticism on various social media platforms. The move to go "ghost" on Instagram highlights the impact of online harassment on the mental health of professional athletes, shedding light on the necessity for prioritizing well-being and self-care in the face of such challenges.
As discussions around Sergachev's decision unfold, it prompts a reflection on the broader issue of the challenges athletes encounter in the digital era and the importance of fostering a supportive and respectful online community.
