A lot has been said about the game on Saturday and much of the conversation has been about the fans treatment of the players.
Jonathan Willis makes the point that the fans just bothering to show up at all is something to be recognized and appreciated.

I have stopped buying ticket packages for 3 years now because I felt strongly enough that the Management team was not up to the task of putting together a competitive team and I was not willing to support incompetence with my hard earned money.
For the people that still decide to purchase tickets and go to the games I completely respect their decision to voice their displeasure at the quality of hockey they were witnessing. I think though there is a misunderstanding at were this displeasure was directed. I think it was at the organization and not the individual players. Its the organization that needs to understand how much this team has failed its fan base.
Boos are the first step...apathy is the next.
The Boos at least show that the fans care....I see that as a positive.
