Pouliot re-assigned to WBS, Jarry recalled. I'm surprised Pouliot is being sent down, I guess that means Maatta and/or Letang is coming back.
If he has 0 points in the next 5 they will still support him. According to Twitter.
Issue is they seemingly only do this to players who were on the 09 cup roster. It's glaringly obvious that they want to prop these guys up even when they are playing like hot crap. Remember "Scuderi is helping Despres?"
Yeah I think the problem with this is that there's definitely a bias to it that makes people uneasy. Forget Kunitz; that stuff definitely falls under the "make everyone look good" category. But the passive-aggressive defense of Fleury over Murray is really off-putting. Notice how we're only supposed to support both goalies when Fleury has the net? No mention of that when it's Murray. Or when Murray gives up a bad goal, it's one he'd like back, but when Fleury does it it just got away from him, or he was screened, or aliens invaded.
They use a different kind of language for Fleury. It's clearly because they, more than anyone, get to see what a fun and lovely person he is and cheer for him personally (they're fairly open about that). But it is unsettling to consider that this is an attitude that permeates the rest of the organization, too.
It IS okay to support ALL twelve forwards ya know!
But is it okay to support Guentzel? We need guidance, Pens!
