At what point in this early season are we going to stop riding players backs?  I can see getting on a player come late December but can there please be a time for adjustment.  Case in point, Vincent Lecavalier.  Sure he is the franchise player for the Lightning and the face of the organization but come on give the guy a chance.  I can float both ways on this subject.  I can say that he is working his way back into playing form and he may not be putting the puck in the net but he is becoming an all around player.  On the other hand I can say that he would be a good for Montreal and that maybe it is time for him to go home.  It would probably be great for his career if he went back to a place that was more focused on hockey then in a state where hockey plays in the background.  I would like for him to stay in Tampa for the rest of his career for selfish reasons(I live in Florida) but will he end up on a washed out list of NHL players that hit there prime in there early twenties?  Lets give him a chance to shape up and then come the end of December he is not producing then maybe it might be time for a change in scenery
