From that interview it seems that he has a great attitude and is committed to bettering himself.
He says he had the goal this year to stick in the NHL, but didn't, his resolve sounds good and I imagine he has the same goal set for next year. Management has said what they want from him so he knows what he has to do.
He's a smart guy with a good attitude, he will focus on what is being asked of him and there will be improvement. I'm not saying he'll be back next year and scoring at a PPG pace, but he will be better and there's still plenty of room for growth for Sven.
F trading him, what is wrong with you? What do you expect to get for him? At least he's somewhat of a known commodity right now.
