It could have been for mental reasons. Wouldn't that require a doctor's approval, if so, :maybe the Flames really don't have a say in the matter at that point.
A lot of people applauded how the Flames handled the Peter's situation where some other organizations didn't handle their situations very well. The point being that sometimes that as things come up for the first time it sets precedent on how things are handled going forward.
Over the years we've seen countless fans make baseless observations about players that turned out to be absolutely wrong.; Yet here some are telling us what the. Flames should have done with a situation that just came up for the first time.
Could the Flames have handled better, absolutely. Did they handle it well the first time;? They probably did the best they could with the information they were given. Let's not forget the Dube was probably not allowed to talk to anyone about what happened because of legal ramifications. The Flames were probably in the same situation and wer l not allowed to ask any questions related to the investigation, or they could have found themselves criminally involved.
The request from Dube for mental health leave probably fell under the same category where the Flames couldn't ask a lot of questions at the time, and were just following the doctor's orders.
