Yes you get the odd quality top 6 player or top 4 d-man sign with rebuilding teams but not many. Most 30+ veterans that can still contribute in top 6 or top 4 role want nothing to do with a rebuild. Hell even Rett Warrener on the fan said so from his experiences as a player.
Look at the players that the flames signed or traded for this summer. Russel who passed through waivers, traded for Jones who had a worst contract than Tanguay, traded for Galiardi who will be given a chance on top 9. None of those players are over 30 and are all fighting for ice time on good teams.
We have seen what happens up north that getting quality ufa veterans is hard to do. Florida did get some veterans but look at the amount of money they gave them.
The 2nd paragraph you wrote, i have no idea what you are trying to say? It kind of looks like you agree with me that a veteran player would be happy to be traded from a rebuilding team, but its hard to read.
Getting back to the "anal" thing, you remind me of my 12 year old nephew. Someone who, if you don't spell it out for him precisely, will just disagree to rile things up. I presume you are the same age. The good part for us is that in 2 weeks, school teachers will take away your device that you use to post on CP.
As for "low level thinking" i will let that pass considering you have a lot of growing up to do.

Sounds like you're just a little upset that someone was antagonising you the same way you were doing to someone else. Taste of your own medicine and all that.
So what you're saying is: You agree with me. There are veterans out there that would be happy to be part of a rebuilding team because of multiple factors including location, team makeup, contract offer, etc. It's not cut and dry, as you suggested originally while 'LOL'ing like an aforementioned 12 year old and calling someone else's opinion 'crap'.
As for the second part, since you need it laid out for you (funny, you seem to project quite a bit) what I as referring to is that it is rare to trade a player and have them come back, why would they? Bouw, Karlsson, Comeau, why would any of them come back? People wanting Iginla to come back is the exception, not the rule, so saying something like "he'll say he doesn't want to go back..." is silly, because it's so rare a player HAS to say that. That's not even just rebuilding teams, you think someone like Bolland or Frolik is saying "Well I'd sure like to go back to Chicago" in media availability? Come on bro.
Anyways, keep up the comparisons to your 12 year told nephew. I'd hate to think you're not even at their intelligence level, but hey, you said it, not me.
