The Blues haven't been playing well. We all know that. It's been an issue for the month of December, and the slump was beginning last month. Slumps happen. It's a universally acknowledged fact, and not one that I think anyone around these parts or any Blues fan would dispute.
What is under dispute, though, is how some people are reacting to the team, coach, and general manager, and that's also to be expected. Most folks were unhappy after yet another early playoff exit. Many people were disappointed with off-season player moves, and more than a few folks weren't happy that an opportunity to get a new coach was squandered.
