There is no way to show that the stupid comments made by Blais worked. How do you know he didn't play better because of all the support he got on this forum? In the poll created on who to use down the stretch, 75% said Brandt. Plus, who said he is really playing better? I think the rest of the team is playing better, which is has no problem pointing out. One mistake and he was an awful goalie? J Par has not been as good as Brandt this year. But he is a frosh, so he has time to improve. Back to the point, the team was playing poor for a while and Blais was honestly not doing a good job as a coach. He threw out a scapegoat and it was totally wrong. To now look back and give him credit for his comments is a horrible thing. Even if Don did the exact same thing, which he didn't, it wouldn't make it right.
