Dandenault hurting

A whole bunch of articles have come out recently about how upset Mathieu Dandenault is that the Canadiens might miss the playoffs. I certainly hope he's not just doing this for the media attention, and that he's sincere in saying that he's been experiencing sleepless nights and bouts of anger over that possibility.

If Dandenault is in fact expressing his true emotions, he should make them extremely vocal in the dressing room. The Canadiens have accepted losing and second-best for way too long now, and having a player (Dandenault) coming from a team (the Red Wings) where losing is just not an option is definitely an asset, as long as he transmits that attitude to his teammates. It could be the only edge he'd have provided the team with all year.
