Right, I agree...and yet I don't think it's being understood.
Again, I don't have a problem w/ what Mathieu said. Similarly I don't have an issue w/ what Cam said, but he didn't say anything about it until both guys were out of the organization. He didn't air dirty laundrey, Mathieu did and he did it in such a way that the HC had to answer questions about it.
Anytime your coach has to get up and address your actions or words, what was done probably wasn't smart.
It was incredibly inflammatory at a time where everyone in the lockeroom probably feels or felt the same, but absolutely NO ONE went out of their way to say it.
If you will, go and look at Cams and Demario's Post Game conferences, they quite literally went out of their way to deny that they weren't unprepared or didn't get enough practice reps. Specifically Demario he immediately shot down that notion when asked.
So not only did he cause his coach to answer questions, he had his teammates having to respond to comments based around what he said. He put people in uncomfortable situations the moment he did what he did. That's a personality type that can be detrimental in the long game.
and I should clarify my previous statement about was it wrong or right. It wasn't wrong, we have the option to be critical, but absolutely nothing about what he did helped the situation in that moment, it very obviously harmed the situation.
