At the same time people want to give up on McBain for unluckily turning around and slapping the puck in his own net. The dude might not have lived up since his rookie season thus far, similarly to Skinner, but that's no reason to give up on his career. Defensemen take longer to develop and McBain is still fairly young.
Plus, another smurf for a defenseman is not what we need.
People want to give up on McBain because he sucked all season, not because of one play.
I don't, but I at least know why people do.
