I would expect that if he is taking the year off, this is the end for him. He comes across as plutonium in the dressing room and in his personal issues, and NHL front offices probably don't want that kind of baggage.
Even if he does come back the leash on him will be really short, and I have my doubts that he can live in that environment.
