Now in Edmonton he's been sulking because he expected to play with McDavid. I would hope someone tells him hey your continued NHL career is not a sure thing.
He's a player who's game really depends on hustle. If he's not hustling to pucks, he isn't doing much for any team.

He likely had just about the best possible scenario in Calgary, in terms of ice time and opportunities.

He's had career earnings of about $30 million, which is probably a lot more than someone of his skill typically gets. Sounds like it's time for him to check his ego and either begin hustling or call it a day.
