Emery Should Apologize to Sens Fans

From Hugh Adami at The Ottawa Citizen,
Emery may have already offered heartfelt regrets to his teammates. We don’t know because that’s the type of thing that usually stays in the dressing room.
But we haven’t heard one peep from the goalie on how sorry he is after John Paddock was fired as coach by general manager Bryan Murray last week. Which is insulting considering how public Emery was in showing us a side that embarrassed the team and its fans, helped drive a wedge into the dressing room and eventually killed Paddock’s dream of bringing a Stanley Cup championship to this city. Paddock’s dismissal had much to do with his failure to corral a sulking, petulant Emery who kept blowing gaskets because he didn’t have the starting job anymore.

I am so sick of hearing how the Senators downturn and Paddock being fired, is all Emery’s fault.
Awful defensive zone coverage and lack of scoring is the reason the Sens record has fallen off. One goalie being late and poor practice habits isn’t the reason for elite athletes to all the sudden tank after a hot start, poor coaching and lazy play is the reason.
