A Sportsnet (SN) round table predicted this exact scenario last week for Robo and IMO proof that Robo wants to be here and the Stars will sign him long term later this year
I am trying to find the link for the round table/podcast where they discussed this and I will post it in the comments when I find it, but they basically outlined this scenario perfectly. Robo files for arbitration and gets a one year deal that the Stars can afford. Then sometime during this next season he signs a big deal that starts next year when Seguin is off the books and the cap goes up.
I know we're all wringing our hands with this stuff, but I think this has been the plan the whole time and why Robo has turned down every trade offer.
Jim Nill may have just pulled a masterclass maneuver and this also shows that Stars fans have a real keeper in Robertson. Robo's gonna take a lot less than he's worth this year in order to stay with the team.
