I think with guys who don’t give effort, sure, demote them after one game to teach them. But if they struggle for other reasons - snake bit, just out of synch, etc., a lot of times this works itself out, often quite quickly. Sometimes you have to show confidence in a player who didn’t perform that well, not hammer them. It depends on the situation and the player. I didn’t view the game so I can’t say what the issue was with, say, Frolik, but there’s a lot of panic after a one goal loss in game one on the road.
