So Mrazek is at fault for not taking the flaws in his game seriously enough, and taking strides to round out his play, resulting in a downright lousy year.
Then let's also turn up the heat on golden boys like Dylan "One Trick Pony" Larkin and Justin "I Got My Money, Then Returned to Being a Scrub" Abdelkader. They each just had a horrendous year as well.
Or perhaps it's not that Mrazek played badly, but that he's become a distraction. Maybe even a diva. And winning teams don't have players with behavior that doesn't represent the franchise well.
Except that Sidney Crosby likes to throw tantrums and drop F-bombs when the refs make a call against him. And Patrick Kane assaulted a taxi driver. Shoot, Sergei Fedorov was dating a 16 year old while he was winning a Hart Trophy. So clearly, if you have oodles of talent, you can still get away with whatever you like.
What I'm ultimately getting at, is there's a double standard with this franchise. You're either one of Holland's boys, and you're a made man, regardless of your play on the ice...or you're not, and the leash gets shorter and shorter, until you're run out of town.
Mrazek needs some major improvement. But I don't see any consistency with how he's being handled, versus how other players with issues either have been or are being handled.
