Wpg in particular where he speculates they knew about his problem since he was drinking in their casino. Cgy, similarly if he's demoted on account of substance abuse, what kind of example is that for people up and coming?
Of course, once again McGrattan figures in looking after a teammate.
Love that guy.

I may have my timeline mixed up, but I thought he was clean while in the NHL and his play simply wasn't where it needed to be. He was subsequently sent down, and fell back into the substance abuse because of his demotion to the minors. He wasn't demoted because of substance abuse.
Again I may be wrong though.
