Just catching up on the thread now, so it might have been messaged already, but both things can be true.
1. Dube came to the Flames referencing mental health issues and requesting a break. I imagine him knowing this is coming down soon would cause serious stress for him. And as far as the Flames knowing about this, I don't think the Flames knew since Dube is not obligated to tell them about it and can lie about it if he so chooses to. This means that from the Flames perspective, they approved his LOA.
2. Today's news, confirming that Dube is being charged.
Edit - Aaaaannnd obviously it has been mentioned lol. These giant threads are hard to catch up on!!
