I genuinely don't think he's even seriously contemplating signing there any more.
The decision he's weighing in privacy is what preferred location am I going to upgrade to after this.
Toronto or (plug in US market)
He's just placating the local media until the season is over and he can slip out the back door.
I hope he just keeps up the "can't confirm nor deny" act because you know they won't sink their season with a trade if they still think there's the smallest chance he comes back.
And then of course, he walks for nothing.
They got him as a handout of a flawed lottery system so them getting nothing when he leaves is fitting.
