Dylan Strome’s wife fires back at trolls after NHL ‘girl dad’ post backfires in Olympic hockey fallout
NY Post
Dylan Strome didn’t even participate in the Winter Olympics, yet he and his family found themselves in the middle of the raging debate surrounding President Donald Trump and the U.S. hockey teams.
The Capitals star’s wife, Tayler, lashed out after the NHL posted — and since deleted — a photo of Strome with one of his daughters on social media in the aftermath of Trump joking to the gold-medal-winning men’s team that he would have to also invite the champion women’s team to the White House or risk being impeached, which generated laughter from the men’s squad.
“We were placed into a narrative that we have absolutely nothing to do with, and we certainly did not choose to have our family used in it,” Tayler posted to her Instagram Story earlier this week. “You can debate adults all you want, but dragging my husband and especially my toddler into something that has nothing to do with us is beyond unacceptable.
“The comments and messages about my TWO YEAR OLD DAUGHTER are some of the most vile and disgusting things I have ever read in my life. This isn’t about politics. She is a child. Full stop. Do better. & to everyone who has reached out or addressed this situation with more than a single brain cell, thank you.”
The NHL has highlighted Strome as a girl dad before, including last May in an X post celebrating the couple announcing they would be welcoming a third girl to their family, but it’s seemingly the timing of this recently deleted post that generated unwanted attention toward the Strome family.
Many are upset with the Team USA men for how the group reacted when Trump spoke about including the women’s team while congratulating the men for their overtime win over Canada on Sunday.
