Speak for yourself, I know I was ready to ink him long term the second he said if Brad and ownership were happy with him then he’d consider re-signing.
His performance with Lindholm and Tkachuk in the final 16 games of the 2021 season gave me more faith in him than I maybe had since 18-19. It was clear as day to me that his new line was going to crush it the very next season.
But whatever it was that caused the deal to not go through last offseason is long gone. We can’t change back time, so at this point, it’s time to move on.
