He only reported as a 17 year old after it was made very clear by Halifax he was not going to get his way and he'd play for them or no one in the QMJHL at all. The rumors at the time were he was not pleased when Halifax acquired MacKinnon as all the spotlight would be completely on him as he was a hockey prodigy and the local hero.
There's rumors he had spat with hockey Canada, and he was not a happy camper and sulked the entire year when the Lighting sent him back to juniors after he was drafted.
This guy is poison in my mind. I don't want him anywhere near the Flames prospects unless they get him ridiculously cheap and are willing to throw him out the door the minute he crosses the line or displays his piss-poor attitude.

Never heard this before, what a prima donna. Hope the Flames stay away, they don't need BS like that.
