I imagine if he was "available" there would be a lot of interest in him but he's likely worth more than any realistic return you'd get.

Surprised he would want to stay, TBH. Nashville seem to never give him the ice time or PP time he deserves, yet he keeps producing considering. We could guarantee him second line minutes and 1st line PP in Montreal! Several other weaker NHL teams could too.

why would he want to live in Canada and take home like 30% of his salary and be in winter 9 months of the year?

In nashville he gets a world class city, good work / life balance (light media scrutiny) , no income tax, golf 10 months of the year, beautiful women, elite southern culture


why would someone leave that to go to Montreal lmao?

No offense to Montreal or the weaker teams but he'd have a better shot at competing with a team who has Saros, Josi, Forsberg and O'Reilly currently.

He got 15:16 on Saturday and 2:27 on the PP. ROR comparatively got 16:04 and 2:36 on the PP. That ain't that bad for a guy who isn't known for being all that good defensively nor at faceoffs.

What a dumb and uneducated statement as obviously you have never been to Montreal...

Montreal is a world class city also, and it is not 9 months of winter. Is the weather better in Nashville, yes, main reason not to play in Montreal, No.

Some people thrive in being an idol/icon in a hockey mad city.

Beautiful women, oh boy, go to Montreal....

And there are ways around the tax issue.

Elite culture, have you seen every single ranking of favourite NHL cities for players to visit?

Get your head out of the sand, and get a passport.

I went to hockey camp In Quebec for a few years... Montreal aint got shit on Nashville...QC is a beautiful city in the same aspect as Charleston or Savannah, but unless I was a Francophone Canadian, I wouldn't want to live there ...esp with those taxes and govt regulation

Let's just end this here. The poor grammar, the ignorant attitude, the ranking of Vegas as your #1 city... it all paints a picture and I know what I need to know about you lol

He's pending UFA so guessing something like $6.0mx5 - maybe less cause Nashville & taxes.

Hoping it's closer to 5 x 4 but I don't blame him if he doesn't take much of a discount. It's his first chance to make some bigger money and he kind of signed early and cheap last season.
