I don't want a second rate publication making this great city look second rate. I don't want this city's media to have a poor reputation, discouraging players from coming here. We already have Francis, he may be play devils advocate to get clicks, but he is nothing compared to this garbage.
This is Canada, treat others with respect and have some empathy. I may work with people who don't pull their weight and frustrate the people around them. But we don't shame them in front of their peers, family or in this case the entire city.

Especially since it wasn't like Brouwer wasn't trying. The game just passed him by like it does all NHL players at some point.
