Im not saying it is a good idea or a bad idea, but I can certainly understand guys, along with their agents, talking in terms of " Holland says if we sign there for a couple seasons at XX $$, you get to play with McDavid and really raise your profile for a bigger payday down the line".
Lots of guys would be open to that idea IMO, particularly guys that know they can play but were in spots that didnt allow them to thrive.
Its not a new concept or anything. Players are always looking to places where they will get better opportunities.
