I really, really doubt he would extend in Vancouver for a number of good reasons, or even care about another contract anywhere unless it was for an average 40-50 pt , 15 -20 goal type salary for a few years. He is a family guy. That appears to be why he walked away from JT and all that chemistry and made that horrible decision to go to Min. for far less money. After reading some of the posts here about him over this season I am amazed about how much misinformation is out there .
"A few good games" Look at who he has been playing with in the last 20-30 and then look at his numbers, all while trying to find chemistry in a new system,with new linemates ,new demands, fewer o zone starts, no 4x4,3x3, reduced pp time, and third line minutes. How many grade A scoring chances over the past 20-30 did he create with his IQ and hands where the puck was not buried. What does a fan here expect from a 2 mil third line winger ?
Last night there was more room for him for a number of reasons, Brock being one . Hard to mark both of them and their d has to get honorable mention also. Leave him unmarked and he kills you with both his passing and goals. The guy who really surprised me last night was Sam.
