Truth is Vancouver massively overvalues him.
And they have to, they pretty much destroyed the franchise over him. His contract is the reason their captain has to be traded, lowballling Horbat had a knock on effect that tanked their season this year, led to the media turning on the, the whole fiasco with Bruce.
To management there he was to either be their #1LW or a star #2C or fetch a king's ransom at this point.
Otherwise they will look like idiots for not getting a 1st and top prospect for him when he has 1 year left, resigning Horvat (likely for cheaper) and realistically being a better team for it.
