Anyone the Flames trade for PLD will be a core and well-liked piece. Imagine what everyone in the dressing room will think of him the minute he walks in the door.

I suppose if he can be had on the cheap it's fine, but some GM is going to overpay for that hot mess.
What? He's 22, and we don't know the exact situation he's in. Yes, of course he should have showed more effort. But he's probably pissed off and he's a young kid. The next team he's on, he probably lights it up and this becomes forgotten in a few years. To completely write him off for this is absolutely ridiculous. At the end of the day, he has the potential to be a true #1 down the middle. Period.
