The Dubas press conference was a miscalculation on his behalf but at the same time - the higher ups in Toronto didn't exactly show very much belief in Kyle either after refusing to commit to him this past summer.
Letting these things trickle down to the final moments is never a good idea. We saw exactly that with Johhny and Treliving.
