But the Toronto media turns on a guy, and suddenly the public consensus is that he's a useless bum, with the worst contract in the league.

"Wouldn't want him to steal Emile Poirier's spot."

I'm not saying that he's a good fit for the Flames, but seriously. He was named best-forward of the 2014 Olympics. He's an all-world talent.

People hate him because the Toronto media hates him.
I thought it was the contract.
