Ballard Finds DeBoer "A Scream"; Panthers Rooks Fall

Nearly three months after being dealt on draft day, Keith Ballard recently came out with some interesting quotes in the Vancouver Province.

The Litter Box, reporting in this article, brought some important quotes to the surface.

“It’s hard to know for sure why (the trade) came about but certainly one of the contributing factors may have been the screaming match, or matches, (Ballard) had with Florida coach Peter DeBoer

“The Panther players are quick to let everyone know, of course, because DeBoer is extremely unpopular with most of the Florida players because he largely treats them like juniors.”

Both quotes are largely disturbing. The former shows DeBoer’s fiery attitude, one that was on display when Nick Boynton was sent home a couple of season’s ago (in this ugly incident), which ultimately may have cost the Panthers a playoff spot.
