For what, exactly? I can think of the several bad decisions the kid has made and all the talk about being a Bobby Clarke clone and playing with more determination than anyone out on the ice was hogwash up to this point.
I really wanted to believe in the kid like most of us here, but he was a joke on and off the ice. I hope that changes for him and he gets it together, but frankly the kid is nothing more than a liability -- a stick of dynamite ready to explode at any time, but in the wrong place and the wrong time.
Hence my point in another thread.....People take all the discussion about Steve Downie too seriously.....We are just having fun, geez.
