I am told by multiple sources this morning Jim Rutherford was working on a Kris Letang trade to one of the teams he can be traded to. Ownership did not want him doing this. It forced an untenable situation. So here we are.

.@DarrenDreger with us: "This isn't Rutherford saying, 'I need a little more relaxation in my life.' If he felt like that then I think logically the next step would be, 'I'm retiring.' And he most definitely isn't saying that. So something led to what was announced yesterday."
