Maple Leafs scapegoat Justin Holl earning his fair share of criticism

Almost every NHL fanbase has a player they believe gets too much ice time and does too little with it, and for the Toronto Maple Leafs faithful that guy is Justin Holl.

There's no way to quantify fan dissatisfaction, but if you doubt that premise send a message to any Maple Leafs fan you know, or search Holl's name on Twitter. If you are a Maple Leafs fan, you get it.

It's easy to see why the 31-year-old has attracted the scorn of Toronto's supporters because even at his best he rarely delivers dramatic, eye-catching impact.
