Whatever the reason was, I am sure it came from the player himself. Whilst he may not have been everybodies idea of good on the ice, I never saw him play a bum game. I have watched some bums in my time too, but I do believe he suffered with the weight of expactation as being the Vothers successor. He was neither: a bum or Vothers replacement, he was just Devin Didiomete plain and simple. That brought us a very useful feisty player. I am sure that with the correct linemates he would have been even more productive for us, but that is speculation,
What is fact is that Devin was a fan-favourite. I have seen him spend talk time with antagonistic fans on their mobiles and talk to them as equals and win them over. Ask the panthers crew whom he recognised as calling him mutant, they'll tell you................He had some balls
Still gone now and all the best fellah. You'll not be resting for too long.
As for Dave#retardestateagent his tweets sum him up for what he is, A crab in a jar who ain't flogged a greenhouse for 2 years now but can still call a raffle during play...............
