I think it was the 2 straight years of showing up to the Thrashers training camp grossly out of shape, and the fans of the Chicago Wolves said the same things about his effort there.
ehh, why is it that I keep hearing conflicting stories...
The most common one I've heard is that he showed up to the first camp out of shape, but was in shape for the second one. Just didn't show his skills enough.
And to be blunt, I really don't trust AHL hockey fans when it comes to talking about players. I mean, they give some good insight in some areas, and it can be useful, but if Chicago fans are anything like some of the Wolfpack fans I know, their scouting reports aren't the most accurate, especially when it comes to high draft picks.
But whatever. You don't like him and I'm sure you'd rather he not do well, since he was traded. Right now he seems to be playing great for the Pack, so we'll how that goes.
