Rams fan Bishop trolls Kroenke after shutting out Avalanche
Tuesday was a dark day for Ben Bishop. The Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender lost the football team of his youth, the St. Louis Rams, which was granted approval to relocate to Los Angeles.

Stan Kroenke owns the Rams, and it just so happens that Kroenke Sports Entertainment also owns the Colorado Avalanche - the team the Lightning beat 4-0 on Tuesday night. And Bishop's shutout took on more significance, according to the goalie himself:
Feels good to shutout Kroenke's hockey team the day he moves my childhood football team! Sad day for Rams fans!!

A "high-quality troll job," Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman said of the tweet. And we agree. That's how it's done.
