And if that leads to better numbers/production, it'll set him up for a better contract after this season.
Playing in Edmonton as a 30 year old you're taking a chance at killing your career by how players values seem to take a hit playing there...particularly if you're getting buried up there. Not a great way to showcase yourself. Kris made a smart move imho.
