I just dont see how management allows him to continue his career in Boston. Even if the players all love him- Is management going to stick their neck out for a controversial player especially after the MM situation? And a player that is potentially playing his last year?
I think its safe to say there would be far more people with the view of-
"I CANT BELIEVE THEY'RE (the Bruins) KEEPING THIS GUY!!"
as opposed to-
"I CANT BELIEVE THEY (the Bruins) QUIT ON A GUY WHO JUST LEFT THE PLAYERS ASSISTANCE PROGRAM AFTER A PHYISCAL ALTERCATION WITH HIS WIFE THAT INVOVLED ALCOHOL!!"
Sounds harsh and I want to reiterate what you also made a point of in that we want them to succeed as a family and move forward. But I personally just dont see it with the Bruins.
Good points.
I don’t know the legal aspects though.
If he’s technically “cleared” of the charges through the courts, successfully completed the assistance program and is physically able to play, will they just “cut” him?
Are they setting themselves up for a lawsuit, considering he played every game until he got hurt, so him being cut wouldn't be the result of his play.
They would seem to be cutting him because of the incident.
(Which they may have every right to do)
So many questions that need to be answered.
