Let's not forget that Sven got himself into this situation.
Hartley and him had worked hard at the end of last season and his game was really developing and coming along. Culminating with 7 points in 7 games to end the season.
Then he pouted that he had to go to development camp even since he was right on the 25 game limit and felt he didn't need to attend.
He also followed that up with an uninspired prospect camp, and a lackluster training camp.
Had he showed up to work from day one this season I have a feeling he wouldn't be getting the tough love he is getting right now. Instead he came to camp with almost a sense of entitlement and this is where it got him.
