Easy to think that these guys "have it all" - the money, the fame, the exposure . . . but they're human beings like everybody else.
SG is a helluva player. But you think he isn't aware that he is the on-line whipping boy of choice when there's a defensive breakdown and he's somewhere on the ice? How about seeing a "TRADE GIRARD" sign . . . on the road? If he had screwed up the way Makar did against the Preds, people would be howling at the moon. Jeezus, fans were telling him he sucks . . . on his dog's IG account. Yeah, these guys are tough guys by any definition. But between the ears they're like all of us - and very few of us could handle the barrage of ill-founded hate SG gets. And money doesn't cure it.
I hope Sammy G gets the help he needs and kicks ass when he comes back.
