Apparently Anton told his agent to contact the Canucks to express interest in coming back to the NHL. To me this indicates that he believes that he has unfinished business and wants to prove to everyone that he is ready to make the jump. I also think that he well come into camp on a mission to stick with the team because he wants to prove that he can play with the best of the best.
He will be interesting to watch during trainning camp, I expect him to come out of the gates flying.
