Hmm....Sounds like maybe Armstrong had the right feeling.
How much of that was precipitated by Armstong not making Pietrangelo a priority? Trading for another RHD. Not working on a negotiation early enough. Signing Faulk and Scandella first before really trying with Pietrangelo. Giving Schenn and Faulk 7 years while quibbling over giving Petro term. Not offering any bonus until the 11th hour. All of these things could have been in response to Petro leaning toward leaving. They also could have been a very good cause of it. He did say he had his sights on elsewhere as he got closer to Free agency, not that he has his sights elsewhere from the onset. We likely will never know the which or why on any of it.
