Guy I knew played with Carey Price in Tri-City, and I remember him calling Carey a normal weird goalie that the rest of the team hated.
Another buddy played with Toews on the Canada West U-17 team and I remember him just hating him.
Mason Raymond didn't have very many good things to say about some of his Flames teammates after he was bought out.

Speaking of Carey Price, he also threw Subban under the bus after the Shea Weber trade with similar criticisms to what are usually lodged on Kylington (cocky, needs to KISS principle etc). Not sure that made that team any better.
Anyways, if Kylington is putting in the work, he doesn't need his peers to like him. I'll maybe be worried if an established high-end veteran like Giordano or Backlund were to have an issue with him than if a lunchpail guy like Hathaway, Lomberg, Klimchuk, Wotherspoon(, Brouwer, etc) etc had a problem with him.
