Pointing out what is obvious to anyone watching and is backed up by very real statistical evidence is not bias. I was one that actually thought he was an ok option going into this year. It’s just so clear that that position was really stupid. I just can’t believe there is a single person still defending him. He’s not an NHL level starter and he is not a whipping boy. Was Brouwer a whipping boy? Maybe you think he was? in my opinion he was just terrible on this hockey team and pointing that out had nothing to do with a bias, and the team showed that they agreed by buying him out. Smith is much worse for this team than Brouwer ever was, given the weight of the position with surrounding high caliber talent around him. He can’t be the regular starter, regardless of whether Rittich is the guy. If he isn’t then you find someone else. But it can’t be Mike Smith.
