Senators D Marc Methot says "leadership" is not an issue. Says Captain Jason Spezza hasn't been afraid to give teammates an earful.

That always works well, the guy who's by far the worst player in the D-zone and the king of the fly-by telling the 19 other guys to do better.
I still can't wrap my head around why people think that one person is ever the problem with a team -- especially when that person is well liked by all of those players. Not to mention literally nobody here *****ing about leadership seems to have any clue what it is, and whether or not it's being used to affect the team positively or negatively in the very small way that it does impact a team.
...and considering the article that just came out about Spezza working on his defensive game and being a team player I would say it's pretty obvious he's taking responsibility for his faults.
This fanbase sometimes.

How about Spezza is just the best player on the ice for either team for an entire 60 minutes
He has more 1st star selections than anyone in the NHL this year with 3. He may not be consistent but he's still been our most game breaking player. Though you wouldn't know it with all the *****ing.

Seriously it's totally leadership and if Alfi was here the team would be winning... period
His leadership is evident in Detroit, let's compare stats for last 10 game
Detroit
3-2-5
Ottawa
4-4-2
OK... uhhhh.... I'll be back when I have a better argument
I'm not sure that was the point of his argument, but Detroit has points in 10 of their last 13 games.
They haven't laid any stinkers like the Philly and CBJ games.

I don't believe the article nor do I believe Jason Spezza. It is a copout to buy time until he is physically fit to play. He is slow, slow acceleration = sitting duck all over the ice. He is pushed off the puck very easily = a back that has not allowed his to regain his strength.
I believe he was sulking about not being the No.1 center and not having Bobby Ryan. It showed in his play and I think now he is over it, but the other two physical issues are the main reason why he is "working" on his defensive game.
