I don't understand why so many fans are pining for the services of a player that doesn't want to play for the organization. We make fun of Oilers fans but some of you have to accept the optics of this team and that it's just not a desirable place to be at the moment.
Not questioning you but this is the most overrated comment when it comes to free agents. They all, except Hossa, take the most money they can get.
