That said, it seemed like he was their number one without a doubt.

I get them being annoyed because they can't see him all that often but honestly too bad for them.
Guy has the option to go ride buses in the CHL for $50/week, playing 30 games in the NCAA or go to Switzerland, get coached by an ex-NHL coach and earn some real money ($500k I've seen) - doesn't strike me as a tough decision.
And considering tons of players come out of Europe each year - I'm pretty sure he can figure out the big/small ice issue pretty quick.
