I don't think he's not taking it seriously or "reading his own press clippings" as you've said a couple other times in this tournament.
He's an 18 year old kid that takes a lot of chances / risks, and what we've been told is that management and coaching staff told him coming into this tournament they didn't want him to tone down his game or play less risky.
They want him to learn how to play that game within a structure and just improve the decision making, not eliminate the creativity and risk taking from his game entirely.
Also I think Flames told some of these guys to just have some fun but don't go too crazy and risk injury - it's meant to just be a bit of a warm up if anything.

They aren’t doing their job as coaches if they aren’t in his ear about focusing
