I agree. You need the vets to help the youngsters understand what it takes to compete in this league. But in addition, you also need the vets especially during losing streaks / stretches. Winning no doubt helps motivation for players in between games, so not too much of an issue. But learning how to stay professional between losses (or long stretches of losses) is probably the hardest part especially for a young team.
