And the character of a team's players is both relevant to the organization and informed by their off-ice/field behaviour. ETA: He's also wearing a Canucks shirt. So yeah, he is fully representing the team and responsible for the image he puts out there. If I were the Canucks FO I would be pissed to have the team brand associated with this nonsense.
