A bit of a silly tactic by the agent. Sure, you want to get some leverage where you can, and I'd even argue that Camilo is worth more than he's currently getting paid. But this just makes the agent look like he's out to lunch and unaware of his client's contract, which is... kind of important.
I guess that Camilo could just not report to training camp, but from what I understand, he wouldn't be able to play anywhere else until his contract is up at the end of the 2014 season anyway. I can't help but wonder what the relationship between the agent, Camilo, and management is like, both before this and after. If it is sour, will we see him shipped off somewhere while he still has value? Or will the Caps go to great lengths to secure his services in earnest?
