Honestly, I think he's somewhere else starting the season in the fall. The family thing is a massively convincing argument for me.

Just the way the cookie crumbles. Plus I think he's the kind of guy that does better when the bright burning spotlight isn't on him completely. Which IMO (again) gets hotter if he signs in CGY.

It'd be cool if he stayed but as this draws to a close, I'm not a believer. Eastern conference team it is for him.
I am sure given your negative outlook in the past nothing would make you happier. Prepare to be disappointed. Thinking a grown man playing a sport where almost every player plays far from home is a huge factor seems absurd to me. I guess we can kiss all of our Swede players goodbye, surely they want to play in Sweden close to their families. The man is 29 years old, not 12.
