Islanders' Scott Mayfield Leaves Social Media Following Fan Criticism After Tough Game
Some disheartened fans directed their disappointment at Mayfield on X, blaming him for his penalty in a harsh way.
Mayfield chose to deactivate his account after the comments.
Below are examples of what was said on X that may have influenced Mayfield's decision to withdraw from social media platforms:
