”A source with knowledge of the negotiations said the Oilers’ last four-year offer made this month was for more money than Seattle’s. They had previously offered $3.9 million per year in June but upped the ante. They were also willing to give Larsson a five-year contract; though the salary on that term is unclear, it’s believed to be for a lesser AAV” as per DNB of the Athletic.
So it was more than just money.

Friedman speculates if Larss was ever comfortable in Edmonton, the jokes, the ‘one for one’, his dads death...
|
But everything I read made it sound like this was a done deal about two weeks ago.
And Larsson's end of the year interview was glowing about the fans, team, city. I don't expect him to trash any of them, but he went out of his way to express his desire to say.
So none of those things (the jokes, his dad's death, 'one for one') happened in the last two weeks. Something changed. Perhaps he felt lowballed after seeing what the Oilers were willing to pay Keith? I don't know, just that something changed around then.

Wonder how much these plays pay attention to management. Sure most of them are wired to just hope for the best and put a lot of the pressure on themselves to be part of the solution, but the really smart guys...it must be hard watching our management flailing. And the Keith acquisition was directly changing Larsson's next season. He was going to be the guy that had to try to elevate this declining 38 year old next year, once again likely getting AHL quality forward help in a shutdown role while Nurse/Bear or Barrie get to just freewheel all night long with all the McDavid time. That doesn't sound like much fun honestly. Now he gets to play nothing to lose hockey and try something new, and more take home pay. Maybe he didn't do the tax calculation until recently as well.
