He's sort of a childhood fan of the team. It probably broke his heart to hear he wasn't going to sign a retirement contract there.
However, he's a high character guy and a leader. I think he'll find a way to be happy in Calgary, especially if he's accepted and adored by the fans. Always seemed to be in it to please a fanbase.

Yeah if he signs an extension, the fans here will love him similar to how they loved Gaudreau or Chucky. We have some real passionate fans.
