You're the captain man, its partly your responsibility to shape the atmosphere of the team and to bring teammates into training.
But he didnt. He 'led by example' which is hockey-code for 'did his own thing and other people followed if they wanted to. Or not. Whichever.

Oh yeah for sure I definitely agree. But it was coaching and management's job to quell that out and nobody seemed to have the balls.
