there is a reason he has been dealt twice before age 25 when some consider him a franchise type defenseman. Hard to argue that its because of whatever it is with him that happens behind the scenes.
Why? Answer the tough questions? They're not tough questions, they're just the same questions over and over leading to the same boring answers over and over and they really don't do anything to make the team better, which is all that matters.

Again, Kipper did the same thing, people didn't seem to mind much then, other than media types.
