Let’s try to remember these arent just names and numbers. While highly paid yes, these are real humans with real lives outside of hockey to think about.
And that is basically what Weeger listed as important to him when signing:
1) winning
2) teammates
3) staff
4) city

And he said he hasn’t talked to Darryl. Plus he doesn’t know the team or the city.

If he signs before the season starts, I’ll be floored. IMO it’ll be the all star break at the earliest for either guy.
