Even if we don't trade him at the deadline and keep him for the playoff push (which makes perfect sense and I'd be fine with that), I hope Treliving doesn't re-sign him. To me Glencross is asking for a 5mil+ contract over a long term and if he gets that here he will quickly go from one of the best contracts in the league currently, to one of the worst. To me he screams of a guy cashing in who will go on a fast and sharp decline. How many forwards like him who sign a big UFA deal at the age of 32+ actually go on to live up to their end and are worth that type of money in the last couple off-seasons? I could probably count them on 1 hand.
