But after the 5 day break, his game fell off significantly and there was definitely a point last season where he called out the team for the way they were playing. It's probably just in his nature since he's generally a very intense person, but his poor play this season along with his crabby interviews just leave a very sour taste in my mouth.

I think any time there was any talk of 'throwing teammates under the bus' has been nothing but a hockey player giving his honest perspective, in his opinion.
Which is something we rarely see/hear.

I don't see this as throwing anyone under the bus, but that's just my opinion
