To me it is part of a bigger story that the Flames simply don’t have a strong dressing room. Neal and his “attitude” was supposed to be what they were missing and we know how that went. This team badly needs some more home grown leaders so they can handle some different types on the team.
I’m sure Hamilton is no leader on Carolina either.

Yes, Hamilton no-showing the year end team meetings was effectively the 'I'm not coming back' statement.
You can add Brower and Lazar to the list of players Treliving has brought in to address 'character' in the room. Being on the outside we will never know what the issues on the room are, but suffice it to say Treliving is seeing something the public isn't. Certainly the inconsistency we've seen over the past 3-ish years speaks to this.
