I’m starting to sense this may be a drouin type attitude thingI believe I read it's a conditioning stint

Idk but it’s odd how a AHL allstar gets sent to the echl if it was a conditioning stint I think BriseBois would have stated thatWasn’t Ingram shopped at the TDL? Came here wondering why he’s in the ECHL

Tampa Bay general manager Julien BriseBois said there is no timetable for his return. When asked if or when he expects to return to Syracuse, Ingram shrugged.
"I’m not sure. We’ll see,'' he said. "It’s not up to me.''
BriseBois said the stunning demotion was made because of an ''internal matter.'' Ingram would not reveal the reason he was given for the move.
BriseBois said Wednesday he decided later on Monday to ship Ingram to the ECHL. Ingram said when he showed up at practice Tuesday, Syracuse coach Ben Groulx gave him the news. Ingram was asked if he remembers his initial reaction.
"Yeah, probably. I’m not going to tell you that, though,'' he said.
Ingram’s agent, Blake Evans, also wouldn’t get into specifics. Ingram, one of the most cheery players on the Crunch, maintained that attitude Wednesday.
"As an athlete, you go through ups and downs all the time,'' Ingram said. "You’ve just got to enjoy it. The sun will come up tomorrow. Obviously, you want to play in the best league you can. But I want to play, too. This is a step for me. All I can do is play the games (with Orlando) and be where I am. I don’t pick what league to play.''
But when pushed for more specifics, Ingram pulled up short.
"I don’t like to ruffle feathers,'' he said.
I feel that Ingram is upset that he's still not considered the #1 in Syracuse. He's sharing starts with Pasquale when he has clearly outplayed him all year and after a strong game Groulx goes back toto Pasquale. Pasquale is still playing well so I can see why Groulx plays him but Ingram is a step above and should be getting more starts.
It has to be close to that. There's no way he can expect to be in the NHL with Dom playing the way he is
Probably true and he deserves to be the starter with the crunchI don't think he expects to be in the NHL just yet either. I just think he feels like as an all star, leader in SO, leader in save % and second in GAA that he should be playing closer to every game or at least 75% instead of the 50/50 that they have been running.
Is dodging ("no comment") better or worse than lying ("conditioning") though?TB easily could have just lied (or told the truth, IDK) and said 'conditioning', but they didn't.
I'm sort of trivializing lying, but when it's to protect your guys, it's more of a euphemism. 'He's got a nagging issue.', etc.
agent stated to burnsie he thinks its conditioning issue
ya brisbois said was not a conditioning thing I heard today really weird. I personally believe since the kid said he lost 7 pounds after coming back from injury its a weight issue or a work out issue... is something we have seen them not take lightly already this season... His agent said he thought it might be a conditioning issue then brisbois comes out with saying it was not right after the agent but brisebois also said he wasnt in charge of the move and had no control over it etc.. really weird
Lying is better in this case because fan speculation is unpredictable.Is dodging ("no comment") better or worse than lying ("conditioning") though?
correct hose correctBrisebois is still the GM or the Crunch. Ingram isn't getting sent anywhere without Brisebois making the decision, so he knew and had control.
