So is Monahan the reason we lost? He's been picked out by a very small select few, even when things were sailing, and then the entire team went into cruise mode and the Monahan naysayers multiplied.
He needs to step up, I'm not denying that. So did Giordano who went from beast mode to adequate mode. Where are his detractors? Be patient they're coming.
I get it. Lack of playoff success sucks. It hurts. Badly. I'm not sure I want to be a fan of any team anymore because I'm tired of the dejection. I love hockey so much and the Flames are my team but another part of the dejection is seeing fans dismantle players, sometimes a little too needlessly because they're mad and they want instant change. Too many people have no patience and expect instant gratification. Monahan will forever be tainted now. I'm going to grow sick of it. Well I already have because it's going to be a long haul until next year's playoffs are over or until he is traded.
