his family comes before anything he owes to flames fans, and you could say that about any player in the league

His wife will go where he goes because he pays the bills and has given her a wonderful blessed life where she doesn't have to worry about anything. Most players go to where they are traded to, not where their family lives or where their wife prefers to live. There is of course the odd exception to the rule, and usually these are guys in the twilight of their years who still have some value- but in the end, you still have to make a living and the man might not want to play there. Best to leave perfect living arrangements when the guy retires at 40 or earlier (gasp) Also, his family owes their fortunes to the Flames and their fans.
