I don't buy that. I think he is just a guy who wants what is best for the organization that drafted him. Unfortunately, they can't get it done and he's been there for 11 seasons when this one ends. He didn't owe them any sort of loyalty; he paid his dues. Now, he has to lie in the bed he made. Can't imagine him being too thrilled to see how things have turned out.

"Easy to say in hindsight."

No, Connor. You shouldn't done your homework on Bowman, and you've had a plethora of coaches and goaltenders throughout your time with Edmonton to know that you have never received the help that you should've been given. Should have jumped ship the minute he could have but he's not exactly bright.
