You are right but in this case we are Flames fans and more concerned about the team's success this season over Glencross's feelings. The Leafs are going nowhere this season so Jokinen's comments have no bearing but the Flames are in a playoff race. Glencross's comments are more typical of an NFL or NBA player not NHL player but as you say people have complained about NHL players being boring interviews. In this case though Glencross kind of came out and showed some bitterness and frustration which is fine but ultimately he's probably going to regret the way he left the team.
