Hossa faces former teammates in Cup Final
By Brian Compton - NHL.com Staff Writer
DETROIT -- Now the fun begins.
Well, maybe not so much for Detroit Red Wings forward Marian Hossa.
Twelve months ago, Hossa stood at Mellon Arena in Pittsburgh and watched the Wings celebrate their fourth Stanley Cup championship in 11 years on his sheet of ice, as Detroit won the 2008 Stanley Cup Final against the Penguins in six games.
Less than a month later, he became an unrestricted free agent and had a decision to make: He could sign a lucrative, long-term deal with the Pens, or a short-term contract with the newly crowned champs. Hossa opted for the latter, signing a one-year deal with Detroit.

The grass isn't always greener on the other side.

Definitely true. But if the Pen's really wanted them I think Crosby should have lobbied harder to get him to stay. As he did take less money to leave which is what surprised me from a fan standpoint.
