There's no reason to believe he's unhappy in STL. I know nothing about him personally. A quick google tells me he sold his mansion in the outskirts and moved into STL. Who knows? Neither GM is going to waste much time discussing it, though.

How many teams can say they haven't drafted, developed, or acquired a #1 C for thirty years?

Krejci, Getzlaf. Brad Richards.
Jeff Carter, Mike Richards, Larkin
Since Datsyuk, it's been nearly impossible to find a top6 C outside the top 100 picks. Pavelski and Any McDonald the borderline exceptions.
