"It was an accumulation of things, and there was a recent discipline issue," said Will Hoenike, director of broadcasting and media relations for the Steelheads, referencing the weekend's arrest. "The team got together with Tristan, and both sides decided there needed to be a change."
The same thing happened last year... with a different coaching staff.
For every Fraser or Dillon you're going to have a Tristan King.
He's been a Diva since day 1. He came in here thinking he was too good to play here and sucked. He was out hurt more games than he actually played. Seemed like he was starting to figure it out last year and actually played okay this year. He's always been a loner on trips and just kept to himself. Now this mess. Hope someday he looks back and realizes what he pi**ed away.
We got TJ Galiardi's brother from S.F. yesterday so hopefully we get the better of the swap. S.F. plays here tomorrow and Sat. Gonna be interesting to see what kind of reception King will get.

For every Fraser or Dillion you get a King, an AHL fodder, an ECHL caliber, and an injury bust. The number of players who are passed over twice in the draft and go on to be good AHL to good NHL guys is pretty few. Those two signings by Dallas are the exception, not the rule.
I know. Just pointing out that with the outstanding success the Stars have had with undrafted free agents out of the CHL lately it's hard to even care what T. King does or doesn't do.

Nitpicking but he was only passed over once. They signed him two months after his first draft right after the rookie tournament. It's crazy to think ... but he's been under contract with this team for 4 years.
I read the Josh Robinson recall to Texas before I read that Besko was sent back. I thought Texas took both our goalies again. Last time it was the day before the finals when we had steamrolled everyone to get to the finals and then we lost 4-1 in the finals with a guy off the street in the net. Hopefully Besko gets some good playoff experience this year.
