I still say St. Louis, they fit all of the criteria he'd most likely be looking for...
- Stable ownership, as Isles ownership has been rocky in the past.
- No issues with an arena.
- He can blend in when out in public there, unlike somewhere like Toronto or Montreal where he'd be in the spotlight constantly and from what I've heard, he doesn't like that.
- Nice and quiet suburban living conditions, as he stated he likes it on Long Island.
- Competitive team with a young core that only needs a couple of more pieces to win it all, him being one of those pieces.
- Will be able to offer a sizable contract to him.
I think it's just too good of a fit, it makes almost too much sense.
