Well this is ironic, considering I’m actually on the market this offseason. So I can put a sprinkle of truth into this. My agent is made up of multiple people that I trust and ask advice from, for example @MikeLiut and @RAmenAmen, so let's call them…. Sam. Sam has been Ozolins’ agent ever since his childhood friend decided to take the next step and join an actual accountancy firm. Sam is there no matter what happens in Edžus’ career, though they WILL in fact judge Ozolins for stupid decisions, for example if he were to walk away from a team that just won the cup (as a completely hypothetical scenario). Their job is to get the best opportunity for the soon to be in his prime Latvian star, and with such an important mission comes a more than decent percentage of Edžus’ salary transferred directly to them. As such, they're a friend, an ally, but also someone fueled by pushing Edžus to take the right decisions instead of “fuck it we ball”-ing it. This does mean Ozolins will not be signing in the SMJHL, much to his own regret, as he wanted to play for the Citadelles. …We’re also telling me it's simply not allowed? Eh, whatever.
