You are right. I've amended my post.
Yeah it seems his skill level isn't high enough to stay in the league, so he needs to bring a physical edge. That's the playstyle he's developed as he chases a fulltime role on an NHL club. But my central point is it's his choice - he isn't being forced. Therefore he will live with the consequences.
Which part is not his choice?
