If it was about having someone come over to babysit and having the family around, the Flames should have paid to move everyone to Calgary.
To me there is something more going on which I don't get. NHL players all have kids, families & wives and all of the move all over North America to play hockey. I can't remember the last time I heard of a player turning down a legit chance to compete for a Stanley Cup with a competitive team because of 'family decision', and that being due to location. Anyone else?
Claude Girioux just went from Philly to Florida to Ottawa in a few months. He has young kids too.
