I'd say that the vast majority of fans have never played sport at a high level (professional or international) and obviously don't know what it takes to get there.
There are so many factors that go into a team and its performance that you don't see night to night.
Not all Avs fans have a love affair with Kadri to include me. I liked him, but not enough to resign him for what he was asking and while he had a good run here what’s he done since. I think Casey has become the new Sammy G level punching bag. Mittlestadt is going to be fine. He’s working himself out of a funk but has played better the last few games and is slowly getting his confidence back since scoring his goal a few games back. Let’s get off his back and see if his play turns around after getting rest during the break.
The fans have never played know what it takes to win goaltending defense goal scoring special teams staying out of the penalty box depth and talent
