I believe their beat writer should take some if not most of the blame on this. She's the one who tweeted out:

In telling of his story, Scorch overpowered a firefighter. That happened.

A full summary of Scorch's debut, including his survival from the fire of 1864 and his overpowering a firefighter: http://bit.ly/ZuiUD1
Along with a picture of the mascot standing over the firefighter. This was before any video or any comments from the actual AHL Flames were made.

At face value, that looks bad. And could have been worded much differently. The beat writer is actually starting to annoy me as she puts far too much of her personal opinion into things and doesn't report on the facts.
