I think that is a bit harsh. He didn't get anymore money with the move to the NYR. I do not think it was an ego thing either. We now know that his mother was sick, and later died during the playoffs. Personally if I had been in the same situation and my GM had the power to get me closer to my mother who was ill, I would have done the same thing.
Can we please just move on from this MSL hate. He was a great player for TBL and helped us win the cup in 2004. I am sure once his contract is up with NY and he said I want to go back to TBL we would all be like, "Welcome Home!"...
NO
NOT A PRAYER in my estimation. Look I do not know Stevie personally but do know some who do. They said he was more pissed off than they had ever seen him over this.
This is uglier than we all realize with things said and done that are questionable by many parties. Marty is the trigger to the entire process that happened.
I really wonder when he does Hall of fame what type of addressing to that situation this team will do.
I do not see him ever in the rafters here. They have primarily removed him from everything already.
There are people here on this board if they wished to talk who know more than most of us. I have moved on but he is dead to me. I feel he is dead to the owner and for sure stevie and pretty much everyone but a few friends he might still have.
Somethings just are not fixable. I will never welcome him back just based on the little that I am sure of.
