    You gotta feel ripped off once that happens to you. 19 years old and gives up hockey.

    I only found out like a week ago that he was forced to quit hockey. He became addicted to coke and the team here in Niagara caught him and said you either stop playing or you keep playing and everyone will know about your problem.

    Maybe made up but I've heard he was a party animal.

    Wouldn't surprise me at all. Sadly.

    So he wants to leave the NHL after Columbus?

    I believe it means he's going to Columbus to talk with them and then playing in for their AHL team because there is no way he'd make the team with this much time off.

    If I was drafted by Columbus I'd quit as well ;)

    It's actually better than most cities in terms of a hockey town.
