But can you really blame him? At his age this was his last chance at a big pay day and while he has been handsomely paid so far in his career he hasn't really made the big bucks. He was probably thinking of his future and his families' future and decided the money was the best thing to go after in his career while still possibly being able to win. I doubt the Bruins were offering him anything more than two years at $3 million so he essentially got his last big payday and I can't blame an aging declining player for doing that. He's got a cup so it is time to think about his family. In his position I would probably do the same thing.
