Not embracing it. Loathing the fact he wants to leave. And I am in support of the long term focus of Jarmo/JD. they have espoused from day #1 that they would do what is right for the long term future of this hockey club. Keeping a player that does not want to play here does not make any sense. They will not win him over this year. He has all but stated he does not want to negotiate past the start of camp.
Carter did not want to be here (via trade as well). Foote did not want to be here. They need to cut loose with the best package (his destination city or not) and be done with this situation. I honestly think that the Tavares uncertainty held that team back last year. And they got nothing for him in the end, and they couldn’t even trade him because they were on the bubble with Florida at the trade deadline. What a waste.and it makes the team look bad and the management look weak. Good riddance.
