9-year olds shouldn't be so gullible.handsleary wrote:My relatives in Roseau said that he was treated like crap. He had a learning dissability and an attention dissorder. He was probably treated poorly because of his skin color and the northern small town environment. I also heard he played juniors in Canada before or during HS. My uncle has a Byfuglein trucking hat, I want it so bad hah.
There are plenty of minorities who are treated just fine up north. Dustin said it himself in the interview. He didn't try in school. If i was teacher and had a pupil who didn't put forth any effort like he said he didn't i wouldn't have much patience for him either, no matter the color of is skin.

I applaud a child like this that took it to the next level and kept playing hockey instead of getting caught up in worse things after deciding that school wasn't for him.handsleary wrote:I am just going by what my relatives said.warriors41 wrote:There are plenty of minorities who are treated just fine up north.

There are kids who play youth hockey all over that have great raw hockey talent. They don't try in school and end up falling through the cracks and off the hockey map before they were even on it. I'm not giving excuses or blameing anyone, this is each individual's personal choice. I am patting him on the back for not letting his own tendancies overcome him.

Ya I guess he was not treated poorly.Green and White Fan wrote:I will guarantee you that he was not treated like crap in school. The school did everything legally it could to help him make grades and stay eligible. As Dustin said, he didn't want anything to do with school. I give him alot of credit for saying like it is and having some regrets about not playing high school hockey. He moved on, worked hard and has alot going for him right now. Congratulations and good for him, I hope he continues to improve and has a long NHL career.
