It is kind of like Kevin Lowe blaming the fans for the state of the Oilers. Yes, the fans bear some responsibility because they keep showing up and handing over their money, but the ultimate fault lies with management.
So when the people at the root of the problem start blaming others for their own mistakes, that rubs people the wrong way. And the longer Prentice's lackeys keep trying to argue this is overblown or that it was taken out of context, the longer it is going to be a story.
