At the end of the day something is up with Dougie that much is certain. He has been a heck of a player but has been moved twice by the time he is 25 despite seemingly being a player with Franchise Dman capabilities.
I don’t know if it is as much about not fitting in with the team off the ice as it is portrayed. I get the impression he is a pouty guy that probably lost his cool when his brother was waived. It definitely appeared that the Flames acquired Freddie specifically for Dougie.
I was a big supporter of moving Dougie this summer but to me it was obvious from a far something was up with him and despite the stats, skill and size there were other red flags that made me glad we moved on when we did
