You know it may be not believable, but that's actually entirely plausible. Let's face it, discrimination exists. It's certainly not the first time we've heard a coach being accused of not liking a player because a player's life may have gone too smoothly in the mind of the coach.

Let's face it, if you're a family man and you're choosing between hiring a 30 year old with a wife and kids and a 30 year old who is single and loves to party who would you hire? Despite the long hours and commitment, hockey teams are generally filled with family-oriented guys. I don't think there are many 30 year old NHL players who are single and likes to party.
