Butterfly effect. Flames get him early and he becomes a good guy, never assaults anyone, scores 20 per year on the second line, makes millions, Flames win cup.

In junior he was a guy who was effective because of physical attributes but always had questionable hockey sense.
Turns out he's an idiot on and off the ice.
And the term idiot is being very kind.

As a Hitmen STH, it was awesome watching him steamroll a guy while still maintaining control of the puck and had a good shot, not a lot else.

It's actually possible they're both terrible people. You hit that strawman right out of the park.
