I think a lot of players get spoiled after their treatment in Calgary, where there's a lot less cold hearted business type moves. Something similar happened to Gaudreau (RIP), when he left. He thought he would just waltz into the east coast and be treated to a big contract. The teams there put the screws to him and he ended up circling back to Columbus.
I think Rasmus is in for a rude awakening if he thinks he's going to get both the team of his choice and a fat contract.

I hadn't heard he turned down for Ottawa. I do know he shut down a deal with Buffalo that was straight up for Byram.
