Vancouver’s management seems like a shit show and Anaheim is a bad team with an internal cap. But just a guess

Anaheim allows you to live on the beach. I doubt many players have Anaheim on their no trade list. Even if Anacrime itself kinda sucks. Vancouver is a nice city and that alone probably means it isn't on there.

I would guess California isn't on many lists. Even if the team is bad, you're talking about palm trees/nice climate, beaches, etc.
Also there's that thing with strategic selection where players sometimes leave division teams off their lists because they know its unlikely GMs trade within the division and therefore, its a waste.

California also has ungodly taxation, both state and local in the case of virtually every hockey team. Florida and Texas have no state income tax

I’ve tried to convince my wife of this. She doesn’t agree.

Snow f***ing sucks...the older I get the more I hate it.
It may be a little messy, but I love the cold and when everything is draped in white.

I miss the snow once in awhile. Colorado front-range snow, that is. Specifically Loveland/FTC snow..lol. As in, nothing crazy most of the time.
When we actually had an inch-ish here in Houston and snowpacked roads with "cold" temps, it felt so normal and good. But when it hit the 60s/70s soon after, that was nice also.

I'm sure its been mentioned at some point but it feels like Stastny will come cup chasing in Colorado next year on a cheap deal. I feel like we could pencil him into our 3C spot
Very much doubt that door opens again. I feel like if either side was really serious about it, it would’ve happened already.

I think it's different this time. Paul has made his money, is 35, and unlike previous years (Vegas) we are clear cup contenders/favourites for some time to come. I still think there's some mutual attraction there, and it would be fitting for him to end his career in the place it began. Winnipeg is a solid team, but they are still some steps away and the city isn't exactly an attracting force.

Snow is great once in a while and especially when it's freshly fallen and/or when it's sunny. But pretty soon after everything is grey and ugly and you're dealing with slush and black ice, and you need to go through a 5 minute ritual of dressing and undressing every time you want to leave or enter your house.
Beaches and I can take or leave, but sunlight? Nothing beats a place that gets consistent sunny days.

He’s one of my favorite-ever players so I’d be thrilled if he came back and I could dust off the old #26 jersey, but...I’m not getting my hopes up. I think he’s probably re-upping in Winnipeg. Besides, I think the Avs are likely sticking with the center setup they have now going into next year. There just doesn’t look like there’s a ton of interest in rekindling that particular relationship on either side.
