You picked the absolute worst instance to bring it up. You may have a legitimate basis for an opinion, but in this situation it just comes off as irrational hate.

Why do we always have to look for someone to blame after a goal?

In fairness, he moved his foot to try and stop the puck. Probably should have had better stick position. But these things happen. If he lets it go it was an easy backdoor goal.
The biggest problem was letting the Ducks skate around that shift.

Most make him out to be a good 2nd pairing player, which he is. I thought he was total garbage and was pretty upset when Feaster traded for him, was vocal about it. He's play overwhelmingly positive as a Flame though, has his warts but is a good player.
Sure maybe a couple guys are in love with him but for the most part he's regarded as a 2nd pair guy.

I'm surprised to see the arena so empty. Anaheim is a good team so I figured they would draw a big crowd. It looks like half of the lower bowl is empty.

It's natural. It makes the situation controllable, and people prefer that.

It was a typical axe to grind post. Probably was looking for an excuse to post it.
