"Theres also talk of creating more room at the end of the rink by making the nets more shallow, which would be accomplished by encouraging them to spend all their time listening to pop music and reading Twilight books."
There is clearly a bigger story here... I hope the kid doesn't have a terminal illness or something like that. I hope he just wants to do something different with his life...

I think this is like the Ryder incident. Legein is a kid who just wants to try something different. The comments from his parents lead me to believe it isn't an illness and I expect him to be back in a couple of months to a year after trying to get away and realizing hockey is a good gig.
