Yep, just last year. I still don't understand what offsides is
And I'm sure all those guys had a much better work ethic and more high-end talent than AA. It just seems most everyone realizes that AA is dreadful in his own end, which is fine. He is not that type of player, and odds are he never will be. He's a transistion forward you spring, it's just that the Red Wings don't have one GD defenseman capable of doing that.
So I get why he'd be upset. He sucks at defense, he probably realizes that, in addition he has the coaching staff hounding him on it. And he likes to score but he doesn't have anyone that can get him a pass through the neutral zone. The high dump worked for maybe a handful of games earlier in the season, which is when he went on a tear. Once teams caught on and took that away though, well, we know what happened.
