Weston Windsor has spent most of his career under the magnifying glass: the son of a famous SHL player, it was assumed he would be one of two options: either a stellar success, or a humiliating bust. It's anyone's guess where on the pendulum he'll fall. Even so, it's led to him taking a rather familiar strategy for dealing with social media and media pressure: he'll seemingly ignore the noise for most of the season, only to twist and turn and decide to send out a passive aggressive tweet when something really bothers him.
It's not a smart strategy, no: but like dozens of players before him, Weston is disciplined so long as his emotions stay in check. He can handle the insinuations that he's not as good as his father, the complaints about his 'soft' player. But, he can't abide the claims that he's simply not trying hard enough: some offense drawn from a player that truly wants to be known as a good teammate, despite all evidence to the contrary. When play on the ice won't silence your critics, just vague-tweet about them. That's mature, right? |
