I don't understand the hate directed to these quotes...
Guy is pretty self aware that he doesn't operate well unless he is given very specific instructions, and admits he has been trying to work on it.
But if you're an NHL club, you really don't want to have to give that detailed of information to players. He has effectively ended his career (at least after this contract).

Every player gets direction and if they need more that's what assistant coaches do basically on a daily basis with the coach taking on a broader scope of it.
So he got direction, but he needed more and instead of asking for it, he made assumptions and some gray area bullshit. He expects to be handheld through every decision the coach makes and that's just ridiculous. At that level, you should have an understanding of what your coach wants from you with practices and well, literally discussions.
There's also the issue of maybe he's just a very dim bulb with talent and now that he needs to adjust the brightness, he's incapable of it and his talent won't let him get away with it anymore.

He rightfully gets ragged on for being lazy but tbh I just don't think there's all that much there. He was talked about for years as a full package center that could put the parts together at any moment but I never saw it. Definitely an element of wasted potential but to me he's simply not that good. RyJo was another one, although he at least had hands.
