While it's true that Glencross didn't like his ice time, IMO the fact that it was vets who made their views known is a function of them being vets, not the fact they were butt hurt. Vets can speak their mind. The Baertschis on the team couldn't.
That was a terrible team on paper and the expectations reflected that. Even in the bad years, Hartley got more out of that group than what should have been possible.
