Too many restrictions around Hamhuis in terms of his future, probably didn't do himself any favours publicly saying he'd like to come back to Vancouver.

If Russell has a good showing in Dallas this year they will re-sign him.
I could see that, especially being that hes on the right side of 30, but again, I think Russell will very likely regret not taking whatever Calgary's last contract offer was.

He could easily be re-signed by Dallas with a good stretch-drive and playoffs but he could just as easily become marginalized.
