If your suggesting he could go to Vancouver and play he said he never wants to be back there. This was years ago after he was partying there and another person picked a fight with him . Specifically a canuck fan when he was still with boston. It wasn't even the first time he's had issues in Vancouver. This was actually a big reason he chose to go to Edmonton over Vancouver . He's even stated it would be a dream to play for the Canucks but he's been attacked many times in Vancouver.
