Kind of feel bad for him until I looked at his house listing... he is going to be fine.
In hindsight, I am very surprised at how this played out. The family plotline during his stay here led me to believe he was 1000% committed to seeing this through. Did the team steer him away? Did he simply sign here because of $? Was he mislead that he would be given an opportunity to win here? Did his play dictate this move? I am guessing it's a combination of all of the above.
The only fit I see is PHX, a self-imposed cap with lot's of cap space and a Marleau at $1.5M real dollars is a decent value.
