It would have to have an impact on everyone in the room.

After watching the last two games this is exactly what i thought. It is almost as though everyone is waiting for the Burke trade hammer to come down on their heads. Whilst we all expect a number of players to be gone at the deadline, to have them walking on egg shells already is not good for this team and will only lead to more losses like the last two. Why put in the effort, and risk an injury, if your going to get shipped out at any time. Please don't throw the line of "they are professional players they should give 100% all of the time", they are human and it doesn't really work like that.
Really worried about Monahan at this point as well. Call it a slump or the wall that all rookies hit but i don't think he is 100% after his injury, I really think he has been rushed back before he needed to be. If that is the case why play him so few minutes as well??
