Again people are acting desperate for anything.
Just like wanting to trade for Cozens boat anchor contract because he’s big. A butter soft player and people want to trade our best trade chip for him.

Fair, but you could also look at a guy like Bennett who slid in his draft and he’s certainly not the only example. Did Bennett slide because of ‘character issues’ or is it more accurate to say he slid because the GM’s and scouts thought he simply wouldn’t be as good as those picked ahead of him despite what the majority of hockey journalists/fans/media thought. Given the mix at the top of this years draft it seems likely someone is going to slide, in the eyes of some, this year as well.
I just don’t think it’s all that insightful or wise to say a guy has character issues when, really, the vast majority people on this forum don’t know what they don’t know.
