Or “basically” he just wants to play with the most talented players...period.
The more I learn about this guy as a person, the more I hope Kenny finds a way to keep him around. He’s has a non-super-star mentality...a perfect fit for the blue-collar mentality of Mike Babcock and the whole Wings organization.

I second that. All those Thrashers writers who’ve encountered him in their conversations with him have said he is a very accessible superstar who’s very humble and gracious with his time as opposed to the moody Ilya Kovalchuk.
So glad Hossa’s a Wing...even if for just a year for now.
