This may be a dumb question but if it is 50/50 between NJ and Calgary. How important is #13 for him? He won't be getting that number in NJ. I know pro sports players are really particular with their number.
Massive assumption on my part but there are 2 options here.
Go home, get a new number, potentially contend eventually, be closer to family.
Go to Calgary who is in their contending window and cement your legacy and have your number hanging in the rafters after your career is over.
I agree with Jiri, I think its a 50/50 between NJ and Calgary at this point.
It sounds like teams that could potentially have been in the running are slowly dwindling which is obviously a huge plus to the Flames.
