If the guy had a bit more humility and tact, his jersey would've been retired long ago. Instead, every time he opens his mouth, he pushes back the timeline.
The Flames gave him a try out as a goodwill gesture, something Im sure that was meant to be a first step towards a jersey retirement of some sort. Instead of being grateful for the opportunity when he was cut (something that everyone knew he would be), the guy crapped all over the the organization and its players once again. I'm sure that left some really sour feelings about him amongst the ownership group.
Theo needs to shut up for 5-10 years, and he'll probably get consideration again.
