Maybe it was him that decided to look for a better opportunity elsewhere. NYR have a better pool of forward propects than the CBJ, so maybe he thinks he has a better chance here.
Besides it's only a three year deal, he has demonstrated scoring ability at the AHL level, at the very least he can provide punch for SPR. Winning needs to be developed at all levels. And if he does continue to develop, Lord knows some offensive organizational depth would be welcome.
