Maybe he didn't want to play the game because of his injury in the first place which is why he didn't show up dressed and now it is assumed that it was all petty crap over his clothes being thrown in the shower and the shoulder isn't that bad.
And given that he's been playing through injuries and is a fierce competitor on the ice and is not exactly a rookie anymore, he's insulted. It doesn't look good for sure but I don't think you can just assume this move is just to stick it to the Jets.
