You are not Kipper. You don't get to decide when you feel like facing the music or not. You are not infallible in this crap of a season, even with your goals by a defenceman lead. Baring a personal reason that would excuse him, this kind of behaviour (I believe) is an indicator of an individual that does not put the team first.

Maybe I'm off base, maybe he has a legit reason. Or maybe he's just that introverted and can't deal. Dougie is an NHL star defenceman though and he needs to stand with his teammates though it all. Just grinds my gears is all.
Breathe....Funds....breathe....

Okay, my question, what is [Dougie wasn't made available for any press today]means. Was it that the team doesn't want him talking to the press? It didn't say Dougie refused to talked to the press. Could it be that the team didn't want Dougie spilling the bean?
