Be careful what you ask for.
In an obvious attempt to keep fans’ spirits alive during the down time from the covid-19 pandemic, professional teams are using social media platforms to stay engaged with fans more than ever.
On Tuesday, the official Twitter account for the Nashville Predators asked its followers to share photos from the 2016-17 season when the team had a playoff run that earned its first appearance in the Stanley Cup Final.
“Do you have a photo from the run? Please share. Thank u!” the tweet said.
About an hour later someone at the helm of the account for the Pittsburgh Penguins posted several photos of the Pens win over Nashville during said Final.
“Here you go!” the reply from the Pens account.
