And I agree with you... universal accountability only works for the team as a whole and not by differentiating between individual players, especially goofy categories like "the young players"
Actually that is how it works in real life.

Hypothetically, you want Sven (or any young player / rookie) grumbling only if he's not getting the same treatment as Colborne / Monohan / etc... You don't want him grumbling because he's not getting the same treatment as Glencross. The former is how young players compete for jobs in the league, the latter is an attitude problem.
