   Summary

   It wasn’t clear if Macklin was offered a team-friendly deal and declined, if he’d been advised of the implication of his final figure and signed anyway, but Will didn’t need it to be. A butterfly flaps its wings and such… Will being traded ultimately came down to him. The how or why didn’t make the truth any less of the truth.

   Six years ago he would’ve clawed at whatever he could to stay, now Will couldn’t stomach the possibility of returning, expected to bury the hatchet and bring them a Cup like some saviour because their star player never delivered them the glory they paid for. Yeah fucking right.
