Would honestly like to know more about what made him such a "trash human".

For whatever his shortcomings as a young adult / player, he seems to have his heart in the right place these days. I've chatted with someone in his neighborhood, and when kids are playing at the outdoor rink by his house he'll often go out and give them tips. I know its one anecdote, but compared to other ex-pros who are complete morons to the public, I'm sure he has some redeeming characteristics.
