One thing to point out with Hamonic and the "Winnipeg is the obvious choice", is that there were rumours at some point that he wanted to be traded to Western Canada because of a major illness in his family, but it was later reported that the illness was gone/dealt with etc and that he no longer saw a move to western Canada as a priority.

Not saying that he wouldn't possibly still want to go there just to be near family, but important to note that his desire was based on an illness that is apparently no longer there, where as a lot of fans these days think he wanted Western Canada simply to live near family.
