I think that is ridiculous. Guys don’t like him because he is going to potentially rat on their partying habits? I really think Dougie is a bit of an odd duck and his personality is probably an acquired taste and he can rub people the wrong way.
I believe Treliving agreed to acquire Freddie and keep him on the roster to get Dougie to sign that contract. I could imagine that rubbed other star players on the team the wrong way. To me him ditching the exit interview was a huge red flag and considering the comments about this team chemistry I just feel the Flames felt Dougie did not fit in so they moved on before his NTC kicked in next year.
I really like the return we got so I don’t feel they got ripped off in the deal.
