No different then a guy getting hired in an office downtown who may be the best worker, but acts like an ass to everyone and ruins the office chemistry. Just not worth it in such a crucial time in the rebuild. Is it really worth having a guy on the team who can score 30+ goals, while at the same time ruining the dressing room and becoming a handful for the coaches? Combine interviews are done to bring issues like this to the forefront and clearly some issues were identified.



Or maybe you're just a kid with an attitude. For him to play the race card is just pathetic. No one cares if he's black, white, blue or salmon color. As management said, skill isn't everything. Character plays a role. I trust the Flames will make the right choice.
Nothing like that white, privileged hockey culture to refuse to acknowledge racism and call the kid pathetic for "playing the race card."

His own GM calls him a "Harlem Globetrotter" for dangling. Piss off.
