Seriously though, he's a great player, and will likely be a core piece of the Oilers' blueline moving forward.

Well I'm sure that factored in to his reasoning too. I could have seen him going to NYR to play with his former teammates but that defensive corps is pretty tough to crack.
I really hope he doesn't do that (I hope none of the Oilers young guys do that), but it's definitely a possibility.
