One reason might be the certainty of a contract offer sitting in front of you in a city that you have lived in before; vs waiting and gambling on the UFA market.
These last couple years, UFAs expecting to cash in haven't exactly done so. i.e. Cody Franson, and especially older UFAs (Curtis Glencross, Kris Russell, Jiri Hudler).
