Would you say that Hamhuis is now considered to be a "star"? Is the grass greener?
With Hamhuis, sure, it's Canada, it's home for him. I can see why he wanted to go home...but I don't perceive that he is a legitimate "star" there. I see him as no more than the player he was here but getting higher pay and I guess more time on ice.
I think Suter is a great player, but I think maybe he's creating a scenario in his mind about other teams that may or may not be true. The Wings have a fine team every year, but they don't win the Stanley Cup every year. Vancouver and San Jose have fine teams and add key personnel to fill their rosters...and still don't have a Stanley Cup. Sometimes Anaheim or Carolina or Tampa Bay wins it instead. That could also happen in Nashville some day, with or without him.
