Help me understand why GMs have to be totally disclose and divulge their plans and thoughts on players before trading them. Other than injuries, why do GMs have to discuss with other GMs why they’re trading players or their locker room fits or issues? Isn’t that what scouts are for? Couldn’t that open up GMs to being accused of “blackballing “ players?

If GMs are dishonest with another GM they end up getting a bad rep and less likely for future deals either now or in the future.

So the thing that got him benched for SJ was him missing a treatment day for his injury. Made it seem like he maybe slept in or just blatantly forgot he was supposed to be at treatment to help his injury issue. That sounds like he is maybe not so professional which would rub a lot of management types the wrong way very easily.
