Real possibility he would have been rotated in and out. So how is he supposed to show out and get a raise on that 1M deal. At least in St. Louis he is getting double the salary with the opportunity to do something and get a larger deal in a year less.
This winning thing and chasing cups is hilarious. You haven't won anything, what cup are they chasing, forget cups. What winning are they giving up money for?
Players want to win, but they won't be giving up millions for it.

More to the point, players won't give up millions to "win" while the other players in the team are ensuring they get top dollar and, perhaps even more offensive, management goes out to market to bring in UFAs instead of using the cap space for signing their RFAs.
The Oilers created this situation and then are disappointed that it actually happened.
No good.
