Doubt it. Think you'd rather play on the team just finishing their rebuild vs the team just starting to build from the ground up. And no guarantee he'd be a top 3 guy in Vegas if they're getting guys like Vatanen, Methot, Jack Johnson. He has some ties to Calgary too. Unless he didn't like it here it seems absurd he'd choose an expansion team over a team that made the playoffs. I guess if they offer crazy money anything is possible but that seems extremely unlikely.
