To quote the assistant GM of the Predators:

"We think we were promised his services, and at the end of the day, they, like every everybody else, can change their mind in life."

"They wanted to test free agency. He has a right to go to free agency."

Not getting a sense that the Predators think he's selfish or classless. It appears to be fans (even fans from other teams!) that are being the most reactionary about this. Nashville was only disappointed because they would've added offence at the deadline, that's all.
