Good for him, he has value and he knows it.

Would you think the same if Sam Bennett did this? Obviously it wouldn't be the exact same situation but just imagine if Bennet felt he was owed more minutes, he should play center or wanted to be on the 1st PP. Not in Bennett's character, but just imagine he did it anyway. Would you feel the same way?
Honestly, I preferred hockey when trade demands were made exclusively by proven players and you heard about one maybe once every 2-3 years. Now, it seems like you can't go 6 months without something like this. Even guys like Drouin, Baertschi and Rychel will do it now... wtf? Guys who have proven nothing but feel as though everything is owed to them. Typical millennial BS if you ask me. One day, this exact thing WILL happen to the Flames (again), and I don't think we'll see nearly as many people rushing to that kid's defense on this site as are currently defending Drouin.
