Episode 63: Your Best Player Isn't The Problem

A day after PK Subban soaked up all of the blame for a Canadiens loss simply because he tried to do what they pay him for, we ask the following questions:

Why are people in various levels of hockey, whether it's fans, analysts, or coaches, still so conservative and risk averse?
Why does the best player always get singled out as the one whose play needs to be questioned first when things go wrong for the team? Why is there still such a giant divide between perception and reality when it comes to what the defense position entails in 2016?
