I would respect the player's opinion certainly.

There are a lot of posters (me included sometimes) who talk about the NHL game of hockey like they have first hand experience. Well as posters on a message boards, we don't know what it is like to play NHL hockey.

So if an argument broke out between a fan and a player, and it was clearly in an area where a player would have much more expertise, or course I would back the player. It wouldn't really matter what team the player played for. It has nothing to do with being star struck and everything to do with recognizing an expert when I see one.
